Meeting note-taker Circleback adds a free tier to attract more customers | TechCrunch

会议记录工具 Circleback 推出免费订阅层级以吸引客户。该计划允许用户无限转录会议，但仅保留最近 30 天的历史记录；付费订阅起价为每月 15 美元（按年支付），此前最低月费为 20.83 美元。Circleback 由 Ali Haghani 和 Kevin Jacyna 于 2023 年成立，2024 年融资 250 万美元，目前团队八人，年收入超过 100 万美元/员工。创始人表示，此前有限的试用期导致用户流失严重，免费层级旨在扩大用户基数并测试产品变现能力。公司称不依赖 Google 或 Meta 广告，该举措将作为营销支出，且短期内暂无融资计划。
