Where tl;dv falls short, per the models
- GPT Its sprawling sales-intelligence workflow is excessive for practitioners who only want concise, private notes
- Claude It's optimized for reviewing recordings after the fact, not for crisp in-the-moment action-item notes; teams wanting a simple "what did we decide" summary get more overhead than they need.
- Gemini Its transcription engine struggles with technical jargon or non-native accents, and it lacks custom vocabulary options to train the system.
