Why product teams are switching to Earmark
Notes are not the deliverable
Every tool above is excellent at capturing the meeting — transcripts, summaries, recaps, action items. But you still turn that record into the actual work. Earmark drafts the PRD, the tickets, and the decision log themselves, in real time.
Botless, by default
Most assistants join your call as a visible bot. Earmark captures device-side, so nothing shows up in the participant list — and it works in person, where bots can't go.
Built for how product teams ship
General-purpose and sales-led tools dominate the category. Earmark generates decision logs, acceptance criteria, and Linear and Jira tickets in the formats product and engineering teams already execute with.
Trusted by product teams who ship through conversation
“Earmark transforms planning calls straight into PRDs and JIRA tickets. An indispensable PM tool that saves hours of documentation.”
“No other AI transcription tool gives this level of flexibility. Cuts my admin time by about 75%.”
“Earmark is far beyond a basic meeting tool — task agents build summaries, follow-ups, and deliverables while we’re still talking.”
