NOT REALLY
why this verdict
Keep paying — OpenAI has not replaced it
OpenAI's version overlaps, but does not finish the productivity job, so this one still earns its $19/mo.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- Phones and meeting tools record and summarise for free. OpenAI, February 1, 2025 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? yes
- 1 of 2 listed replacements have a usable free tier: Otter.ai.
- What the call is worth $228/yr
- $19/mo at the entry paid tier — $228 a year per seat.

The backstory
Limitless captures the meetings that never happen on Zoom — hallway conversations, phone calls, the thing someone said in the car. That requires hardware and a consent story, which is why it is a different product from a notetaker bot rather than a competitor to one.
