About Bluedot

Bluedot records without putting a participant in your meeting, and leads with privacy in its own marketing. That combination is becoming less rare, but the way it draws its pricing tiers still is.

Bluedot draws its tiers the other way round from the usual arrangement. Slack, Notion, Zapier and Make connections are on the free plan, while custom note templates wait until Pro and CRM and applicant-tracking integrations until Business. If your bottleneck is getting notes in front of a team rather than shaping how they read, that is the more useful way round.

Webhook access starts on the Basic tier, with organisation-wide webhooks and MCP on Business. The catch is silence on languages: Bluedot names no transcription list anywhere public, so its coverage is unrecorded here and the language filters pass it by. For a team working in English with a Slack habit and a dislike of meeting bots, it is a comfortable fit; anyone who needs a specific language should ask first.
