tl;dv is a popular tool for recording and summarizing meetings — but it's 100% cloud: it joins your Zoom, Meet or Teams calls and audio is uploaded to their servers. If you work with confidential information, on a restricted corporate network, or simply don't want to depend on a cloud subscription, this is the real difference.
