tl;dv and Dailies both begin with a Chrome extension, and do opposite things with it. tl;dv’s extension sends a bot into your calls to record, transcribe and summarise them for the team, even when you are not there. Dailies’ extension is the recorder itself, and what it hands back is not a summary: up to eight vertical shorts, captioned, cut from the best passages. tl;dv has clips too, which you cut yourself from the transcript, then share by link or download. They are parts of the meeting. Dailies’ shorts are made for people who were never in it.
Checked against tl;dv’s own site on October 1, 2026.
Dailies
For people who want to publish what they say in calls: vertical shorts picked, cleaned up and captioned for them.
tl;dv
For teams that want their meetings recorded, summarised and sent to their tools, in an interface available in French, with clips to cut and share by link.

tl;dv is an AI note-taker built for team collaboration. Once its Chrome extension is installed, a bot joins your Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls automatically: it records video and audio, captures slides, transcribes with speaker recognition and summarises, even when you are absent. A desktop app for Mac and Windows records without a bot from your computer’s audio, on any platform; tl;dv states that this mode records audio only, without video, screen sharing or chat messages. It writes summaries, action items and follow-up email drafts, logs calls in a CRM and searches across meetings by keyword. It transcribes more than 30 languages, French included, and its platform is available in French. To make a clip, you highlight a part of the transcript and click Create clip, or use a slider on the recording; several clips can be joined into a reel, shared by link or downloaded. Its homepage also mentions AI-selected clips from customer calls, for sales coaching.
With tl;dv, installing the extension means a bot joins your calls and records them on your behalf. Its bot-free option is a desktop app that, by tl;dv’s own account, keeps audio only: no video, no screen sharing. So a tl;dv clip with picture comes from a call the bot attended. Dailies records in the browser: the call tab, your microphone, and your webcam on a track of its own. No bot joins the call.
A tl;dv clip is a selection: you highlight the sentences you want in the transcript, or drag a slider on the recording, and you can glue several clips together. Dailies does that step and the ones after it: it picks the passages, removes silences, filler words and false starts, reframes on whoever speaks and burns in animated captions. In tl;dv’s clip documentation we found no mention of a vertical format, of burned-in captions, of reframing or of silence removal.
Meeting notes, action items, follow-up emails drafted for you, calls logged in your CRM, keyword search across every meeting, a platform in seven languages, and a bot that attends a call in your absence. Dailies writes no notes and attends nothing for you: it records the calls you hold in Chrome and makes shorts from them.
Yes. In tl;dv you highlight a part of the transcript and click Create clip, or set the clip with a slider on the recording. Several clips can be glued together into a reel. A clip is shared by a link that anyone who receives it can view, and it can be downloaded.
tl;dv’s clip documentation does not mention it. We found there no vertical format, no captions burned into the picture, no reframing on the speaker and no silence removal: a clip is the part of the recording you selected. Dailies delivers 9:16 shorts with animated captions, reframed on whoever speaks, with silences, filler words and false starts removed.
Yes, for the sound. Its desktop app for Mac and Windows captures your computer’s audio during a meeting, with no bot in the call, and tl;dv states that this mode records no video, no screen sharing and no chat messages. Dailies records picture and sound from Chrome with no bot.
Yes. tl;dv transcribes French among more than 30 languages and offers its platform in French, as well as in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and German. Dailies handles calls in French, in English and in both mixed, and its extension’s interface is in French.
No. tl;dv records meetings for a team, writes the notes and logs the calls in the CRM; Dailies does none of that. It makes shorts from the calls you hold in Chrome. The two only meet on the word clip, and their clips are not the same thing: a part of the meeting on one side, a short made for a feed on the other.
Add Dailies to Chrome, record the call you were going to have anyway, and watch its shorts a few minutes after you hang up.
