Meetily lands a modest overall score of 4 out of 100 across AI assistants, with ChatGPT and Perplexity giving it 5 and Claude 3. It shows up in just 3 of 62 answers, but there's one spot where it shines: every one of the 3 answers to "What's the best open-source or self-hosted AI meeting transcription tool?" named Meetily. Outside that niche, it's absent — not mentioned for free note takers, non-English meetings, startups, in-person meetings, or 2026 roundups. In short, AI assistants know Meetily mainly as an open-source, self-hosted option, and little else.
this is mine claim it, free, forever. We also check whether ChatGPT and Claude can read meetily.ai.

In their words
- ChatGPT“My top recommendation is Meetily for most people, but zabt.ai is worth considering if you specifically want a server-hosted web application.”
- Claude“Meetily — similar concept (self-hosted, captures system audio, Whisper transcription + LLM summarization), with a Docker-friendly backend if you want it on a server rather than a laptop.”
- Perplexity“Meetily is the best overall choice if you want a complete, self-hosted meeting assistant: recording, transcription, summaries, and a meeting-oriented workflow.”
