Video playback requires Enterprise at $22.50/month (annual). HIPAA/SSO requires Enterprise+ at $29.75/month. **Does Read AI use a bot in meetings?** Yes. Read.ai joins meetings as a visible bot on [Zoom](https://www.itsconvo.com/guides/record-zoom-meeting), [Google Meet](https://www.itsconvo.com/guides/record-google-meet), and [Teams](https://www.itsconvo.com/guides/record-teams-meeting). It posts a chat message explaining who invited it. Some organizations have blocked it. Convo is invisible to participants. **Why are organizations blocking Read AI?** Read.ai's bot can attach to calendars and join meetings automatically, even when the inviter isn't present. It also sends summaries to all invitees including external participants. Several organizations have blocked it due to these privacy concerns. Trustpilot: 1.4/5 stars. **What's the difference between Read AI Pro and Enterprise?** The key difference is video playback. Pro gives you transcripts and text summaries only. Enterprise adds video playback, video highlights, and priority support at a 50% price jump ($29.75 vs $19.75/month). **Is Read AI worth the price?** Read AI offers solid meeting analytics, but the visible bot and auto-shared summaries are dealbreakers for many teams, and its Trustpilot rating is 1.4/5. At $19.75/month (Pro) it is pricier than [Fireflies](https://www.itsconvo.com/pricing/fireflies-ai) ($18/mo).

Read AI Pro ($19.75/mo) is more expensive than [Fireflies Pro](https://www.itsconvo.com/pricing/fireflies-ai) ($18/mo) but offers broader capabilities beyond meetings (email, docs). Fireflies has better CRM integrations and a more generous free tier. **Can I cancel Read AI at any time?** Monthly plans cancel anytime. Annual plans save 25% but don't offer prorated refunds. You keep access until the billing period ends. **How does Convo compare to Read AI?** Convo at $22.49/month costs a little more than Read AI Pro ($19.75) because it does a different job: real-time help during calls, [invisible operation](https://www.itsconvo.com/bot-free-meeting-assistant), and follow-up email drafting, with nothing auto-shared. If you only need meeting analytics, Read AI is cheaper; if you want help during the call, Convo is built for that.
