tl;dv records
the video.
We write the
minutes.
tl;dv records video of your online calls and turns them into clips, summaries and CRM notes. MeetNotes writes minutes you can send as a PDF or Word file, for meetings in a room or on a call. Where each one fits.
Where MeetNotes wins: Minutes as a PDF or Word file anyone can open (tl;dv's help centre describes transcript download as copying to the clipboard, on paid plans), and rooms that switch language mid-sentence.
Why MeetNotes,
not tl;dv
You need a document at the end. MeetNotes exports minutes as a PDF or editable Word file that anyone can open. tl;dv's help centre describes downloading a transcript as copying it to the clipboard, with a paid plan needed on both sides.
The room switches language mid-sentence. There is no language to set, and the minutes can be written in any of 100+.
You want formal minutes (decisions, and action items with an owner and a due date) rather than clips.
On Android, the calls you take on your phone become notes too.
The differences that
actually decide it
Structural facts only — no feature-count scoreboard, and no prices, because prices change and a stale price is a false claim.

When tl;dv
still fits
You want the video of the call: clips of key moments, and reels stitched from them for sales coaching.
You run a sales process and want sales templates such as MEDDIC, and timestamped moments pushed into your CRM.
You want the bot to record from your calendar, even for meetings you do not attend.
Where they fit: tl;dv is built around the video of an online call: clips, reels, sales frameworks and CRM push, with a large integration catalogue. Its phone app also records in person. For a sales team that coaches from call video, it does things we do not.
Record one meeting.
Run both. Let an AI
judge them blind.
A comparison page written by a vendor is worth nothing next to a test you run on your own audio. Ours is published in full: a protocol, a judge prompt that names no product, and a standing promise to publish the head-to-heads we lose.
