What we observed in this categoryauto-generated
Fathom leads the AI meeting assistants category with 87.5% visibility — 12.5 points ahead of second-placed Otter and Fireflies (both at 75%), and more than four times the category average of 21.2%. This gap is significant because it indicates Google AI Overviews has consistently anchored on Fathom as a primary reference in response to queries in this space. The composite score differential (61.2 vs 52.5) further confirms Fathom holds a structural advantage, not merely a marginal one, at the top of the ranking.
A striking divergence exists between visibility and citation across the top three brands. Fathom, Otter, and Fireflies each register 0% citation despite their high visibility, meaning AI Overviews mentions them by name but does not link back to their domains as sources. By contrast, Read AI at rank 4 achieves a 37.5% citation rate matching its visibility rate exactly, and tl;dv at rank 5 holds a 25% citation rate — making both significantly more 'trusted' as sources than the brands that outrank them on raw visibility.
Google AI Overviews is the dominant — and apparently exclusive — engine surfacing brands across all ten ranked positions, suggesting no meaningful presence on alternative AI engines in this dataset. The top cited third-party sources include zapier.com, reclaim.ai, and youtube.com, indicating AI Overviews is drawing on aggregator content and comparison-style editorial rather than brand-owned domains. read.ai and tldv.io appear in the cited sources list, reinforcing their dual role as both tracked brands and content sources that Google AI treats as reference material.

Sources AI engines trust in this category
Across the 8 buyer-intent queries we ran on ai meeting assistants, these are the domains Google AI Overviews cited most often. If you're not on this list — or if your competitors are — that's a concrete PR / linkbuilding target.
How to read this ranking
Four things worth knowing before you act on the numbers above. These are the same definitions across every industry page — for category-specific observations, see the What we observed section above (where available) and the per-brand insights inline in the ranking.
Visibility = being named
A brand's visibility % is the share of AI answers that mention it by name in the response prose. This is who AI engines actively recommend to the buyer.
Citation rate = being trusted
Citation rate is the share of AI answers that include the brand's domain as a clickable source link. This is what the AI treats as authoritative evidence — different from being named.
Top engine differs by brand
The "top engine" column shows which AI surface each brand performs best on. Big gaps between a brand's score across engines usually points to specific content or schema gaps.
Rankings move month to month
AI engines re-crawl and re-rank on shorter cycles than classical search. We re-audit every brand on this list at least every 30 days and refresh this page automatically.
