What Bubbles is
Bubbles is an AI meeting notetaker and async video collaboration service from San Francisco.

Free Notetaker links support Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, GoTo Meeting, and Webex. A browser extension records live meetings or a screen with voice. Recordings can be organized, searched, shared with teammates or guests, and discussed through comments or video replies. Guests can participate without signup or installation.
