Jamie Review

What Makes Jamie Different

Jamie solves the most common complaint about AI meeting tools: the bot. No 'Jamie AI Notetaker has joined the meeting' announcement. No extra attendee in the participant list. No awkward moment when a client asks why a recording bot is on the call. Jamie captures audio directly from your system's audio output, making it completely invisible to other participants.

This desktop-native approach, combined with EU-hosted servers and ISO 27001 certification, positions Jamie as the privacy-first meeting tool. For legal teams, healthcare organizations, government agencies, and any team where confidentiality matters, the combination of invisible recording and European data residency is a genuine differentiator.

How the Bot-Free Approach Works

Jamie runs as a desktop application on Mac or Windows. When your meeting starts, Jamie captures the system audio stream — everything coming through your speakers or headphones. This means it works with any meeting platform, any audio source, and any communication tool. Zoom, Teams, Meet, Webex, phone calls, even in-browser meeting tools all work without configuration.

The trade-off is that Jamie captures all system audio, not just the meeting. If you play a YouTube video during a call, that gets transcribed too. You need to be intentional about starting and stopping recording. The web and iOS apps complement the desktop experience for on-the-go access to your meeting notes.

Transcription Quality and Language Support

Jamie supports 99+ languages — one of the highest language counts in the meeting AI category. For multilingual teams conducting meetings across different languages, this breadth matters. English transcription quality is competitive with other meeting tools for clear audio, and the multi-language capability extends to less common languages that tools like Otter.ai don't cover.

Speaker identification works across meetings — Jamie remembers voices and associates them with names once you label them the first time. This persistent speaker memory means recurring meeting participants are correctly identified from the second meeting onward, reducing the manual cleanup that other tools require.

Privacy and Compliance

Jamie's privacy stance is its strongest selling point. All data is hosted on EU servers, meeting GDPR requirements by design. ISO 27001 certification provides the security framework that regulated industries require. For European organizations, this eliminates the common concern about meeting data being processed on US servers subject to different privacy laws.

Healthcare teams can use Jamie for patient-related discussions without the HIPAA complications of US-hosted alternatives. Legal firms can record privileged conversations without sending audio to a third-party bot that joins the call visibly. Government agencies can document meetings while maintaining confidentiality requirements.

AI Q&A and Meeting Search

After transcription, Jamie lets you ask follow-up questions about any past meeting's content. 'What budget number did the CFO mention?' returns a sourced answer from the relevant meeting. This search-across-meetings capability is standard in the category but implemented well in Jamie, with answers linked back to specific timestamps.

Integrations

Jamie integrates with Notion, Google Docs, OneNote, and HubSpot. The integration list is shorter than competitors like Fireflies.ai (which offers dozens) or Fellow (50+). If your workflow depends on Jira, Salesforce, Slack, or ClickUp, you'll need to export notes manually or work around the limitation.

The focused integration set reflects Jamie's priority: privacy over breadth. Fewer integrations mean fewer data-sharing pathways, which aligns with the tool's compliance-first positioning.

Pricing

Jamie's Basic plan starts at $10/month with access to core features and limited storage. The Pro plan at $30/month unlocks unlimited storage, full feature access, and priority support. Enterprise pricing adds SSO, admin controls, and the full ISO 27001 compliance package.

At $10/month for the basic tier, Jamie is slightly more expensive than free alternatives like Fathom but competitive with Otter.ai and Fireflies.ai paid plans. The premium for privacy and EU data residency is modest — $10-30/month is reasonable for organizations where data sovereignty is a requirement.

Platform Availability

Jamie is available on Mac, Windows, Web, and iOS. The desktop apps (Mac and Windows) are the primary experience since they capture system audio. The web app provides access to your meeting library and search. The iOS app lets you review notes on the go but doesn't replace the desktop recording capability.

Who Should Use Jamie

Jamie is built for teams where meeting confidentiality is non-negotiable. Legal firms, healthcare organizations, financial services, government agencies, and European companies with strict GDPR requirements all benefit from the bot-free, EU-hosted approach.

If you don't have privacy constraints, tools like Fathom (free, unlimited) or Otter.ai (more integrations) offer more features for less. Jamie's value is in what it doesn't do — it doesn't join your call visibly, doesn't send data outside the EU, and doesn't create compliance headaches.
