Efficient at Effortless Recording, Clear Summaries and Action Items, Search and Recall, Sharing and Collaboration, and User Experience
tl;dv gives you real-time collaborative meeting notes with instant sharing and Slack integration, which Cluely does not match.
Only use Cluely if you are specifically interested in its unique features, since tl;dv feels more refined for daily use.
tl;dv stands out by letting everyone on the call see and collaborate on meeting notes in real time, right in a floating pop-up. Notes get automatically timestamped as you type, and sharing is instant, either with all participants or just your team. The Slack integration makes this even smoother for teams already living in that ecosystem.
Cluely tries to set itself apart by proactively suggesting questions and surfacing relevant info during the call, but at the end of the day, it's basically a chat wrapper that listens and nudges you with prompts. Its approach feels more like a twist on ChatGPT than a true collaborative note-taking experience. The review calls out that it's more about clever marketing than substance and doesn't mention any standout way of actually taking, sharing, or collaborating on meeting notes during the call.
If you want everyone to be on the same page during meetings, actively collaborating on notes as they happen, tl;dv is the clear pick. Cluely's proactive prompts might be interesting, but it doesn't deliver the same live, shared note-taking workflow. Go with tl;dv if real-time, team-visible notes matter.
