Fathom, a free tool that replaces note-taking on Zoom

With the democratization of teleworking, meetings on Zoom are now part of the daily life of many professionals. During each call, the process is repeated: you have to listen to your interlocutor, express yourself and take note of the elements of the conversation, which is not always easy.
To stay productive in every remote meeting and make it easier to absorb information, there is Fathom. The tool records, transcribes and replaces note taking through a simple click of a button during Zoom calls.

A tool that keeps the important moments of a call

With Fathom, say goodbye to rough notes hastily written on a piece of paper or on your computer. This tool, which integrates directly with Zoom, is composed of customizable buttons. As soon as something important is said, just click on one of them to record what is said. For example, it is possible to create a “Feedback” button and press it when a client is giving feedback on one of your projects. This way, everything is saved, and you can stay focused on what the interlocutor is saying.

Once the call is over, the tool gives access to the transcripts of the recorded moments. They can be copied and pasted on a document written like Google Doc, on which your whole team collaborates. Fathom also offers the possibility of synchronizing this written summary with its CRM for more convenience. In the event that you would like to share an end of your call with a collaborator, it is always possible to send a video extract using a link. If your team uses Slack, Fathom can also be synced with the corporate social network to share with just a few clicks.

So there is no longer any need to try to jot down hastily and down to the word. With this tool, you can search for transcripts in your calls or those made by your colleagues using simple keywords. In this sense, it becomes easier to collaborate on a file or an article for example.

As many users explain, Fathom allows them to focus on the essentials, to be more active during their calls and above all, to save a lot of time. What to concentrate without constraint on the development of the customer relationship or the elaboration of a project.
