Ask Fathom lets users search across meetings and ask questions about conversations, decisions, commitments, risks, and next steps. The platform also supports topic monitoring so important moments and signals are easier to find. Fathom syncs meeting notes, insights, and action items into tools such as Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Notion, Asana, Gmail, Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, ChatGPT, Claude, Zapier, and API or MCP workflows. It supports security and compliance needs with SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, HIPAA compliance, SSO, and SCIM. By combining AI notetaking, bot-free capture, transcripts, summaries, integrations, search, and workflow automation, Fathom helps teams move from meetings to execution faster.
