Compare to
Fathom
Instead of summarizing your meetings, In Parallel turns them into a plan that updates itself, also free.
Where Fathom gives you a record of what was said, In Parallel gives you the next version of your execution plan.
What are the key differences?
Same starting point, different destination.
From meeting summaries to execution signals
Fathom gives you clean, shareable summaries of every meeting. In Parallel goes further, it extracts the specific signals that affect your execution plan: decisions, ownership changes, timeline shifts, risks, and blocked items. Summaries describe what happened. Execution signals drive what happens next.
From meeting clips to plan continuity
Fathom lets you clip and share key moments from meetings, great for async communication. In Parallel builds continuity across meetings: what was decided last time, what changed since, what needs attention. Each meeting picks up where the last one left off.
From CRM focus to full coordination
Fathom integrates deeply with CRMs like Salesforce and HubSpot, excellent for sales teams. In Parallel coordinates across PM, CRM, and OKR tools bidirectionally. When a decision in a meeting changes a priority, Jira, Linear, Asana, and Slack all update. And vice versa.
When to choose Fathom
- You need free, high-quality meeting summaries for personal use
- You want shareable meeting clips for async communication
- Your primary need is CRM integration for sales meetings
- You work independently and don't need cross-team coordination
When to choose In Parallel
- You need meetings to automatically update your execution plan
- Multiple teams need to stay aligned from meeting decisions
- You want bidirectional sync with Jira, Linear, Asana, and Slack
- Managers spend hours manually updating plans and tools after meetings
Frequently asked questions
Can In Parallel replace Fathom for meeting recording?
Yes. In Parallel joins meetings silently, captures conversations, and extracts decisions and action items, just like Fathom. But it goes further by updating your execution plan and syncing changes to your project tools automatically. Start with a 20-day free trial.
How do the plans compare?
Fathom offers a free tier with meeting recordings, transcripts, and AI summaries. In Parallel offers a 20-day free trial of the full product, Notes with structured extraction of decisions, risks, commitments, and ownership, plus the Living Plan with auto-updating execution plans, drift detection, and bidirectional tool sync. From €69 / user / month after the trial, with Notes free up to 10 meetings / user / month.
Does In Parallel support the same meeting platforms as Fathom?
In Parallel works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet, the same platforms Fathom supports. It joins silently as a meeting participant, so there is no plugin or extension to install.
Is Fathom better for solo users?
Fathom is an excellent choice for individuals who want free, high-quality meeting summaries and clips. In Parallel is built for teams and organizations where the value is in connecting meeting outcomes across projects, where decisions in one meeting affect priorities in another.
