Vyach vs Fireflies for Discord
One subscription for your Discord server. No per-seat fees.
Both tools record meetings, write summaries, and answer questions about past calls. The biggest difference for a Discord team is the bill: Vyach charges for the server, while Fireflies charges for each user in a paid workspace. Adding teammates to Vyach does not add seats to your subscription.

Vyach vs Fireflies: key differences
One server subscription vs paid seats
- Vyach
- Community costs $8.90/month for the whole server, including 30 recording hours and 100 questions. The price stays the same as more members use the bot, within those shared limits.
- Fireflies
- Pro costs $18 per seat on monthly billing, or $10 per seat per month billed annually. Five paid Pro seats cost $90/month on monthly billing. Seats are workspace users, not everyone who joins a call.
Adding more teammates
- Vyach
- New members can run meetings and ask questions under the same server plan, subject to the permissions you set. Nobody needs to buy a separate Vyach subscription.
- Fireflies
- Each admin or member added to a paid Fireflies workspace is another billable seat. You can also share individual meeting recaps without making everyone a workspace member.
Recording a Discord call
- Vyach
- Join a voice channel and run /meeting start. Vyach joins the call and records the people who have opted in. No separate recording app is needed.
- Fireflies
- Fireflies offers a Discord integration for capturing calls and posting notes to a text channel. Its desktop app can also capture Discord through system audio.
Asking what was decided
- Vyach
- Ask @Vyach in Discord. Answers cite the meetings the information came from. Add a project tag to search that project’s meeting history.
- Fireflies
- AskFred answers questions across meetings in Fireflies and can also use connected apps. It uses AI credits; the number charged depends on the request.
Consent and follow-up
- Vyach
- Each speaker must opt in before being recorded. On Pro, Vyach can send private catch-ups to late joiners and create Discord forum posts for action items.
- Fireflies
- Fireflies offers task management, business integrations, and Live Assist for notes and answers during calls. Its Discord integration describes host approval for joining calls hosted by someone else.

Frequently asked questions
No. Fireflies bills for users in your paid workspace, not for everyone attending the call. Meeting recaps can be shared with people outside the workspace; what they can view without signing in depends on the plan and sharing settings. The cost difference grows when several teammates need their own workspace access.
No. The subscription price is per server. Members share the recording hours and questions included in the plan. If the team needs more usage, paid plans offer add-on packs; adding members alone does not increase the bill.
