Plans, real costs, and a straight answer on whether Fireflies is worth paying for.

The short answer

Fireflies is free and paid plans begin at $10/month. It's worth paying the first week you search for a customer quote and can't find it — the archive becomes leverage the moment you stop losing what was said.
