Something interesting happened during an internal evaluation of AI meeting transcription tools at Tungsten Automation. The products worked. They weren’t bad. But sitting across from the pricing, we kept asking the same question: what exactly are we paying for?
We already had a secure enterprise AI environment. Building a meeting summary workflow took days, not months. We customized the outputs, injected our own internal context, and controlled security our way instead of working around someone else’s roadmap. We built it. It works better. We own it.
