    {
      "question": "Which is less expensive, Krisp or Read AI?",
      "answer": "Krisp: Core from $8/user/month annually; Advanced from $15 annually. Read AI: Free for 5 meetings/month; Pro from $15/user/month annually. Compare the paid seats, included usage, recording access, and admin features you actually need."

    {
      "question": "Can Krisp and Read AI record without a bot?",
      "answer": "Krisp: Bot-free system-audio capture. Read AI: Meeting bot, macOS/Windows desktop, and mobile. The useful check is whether your required capture mode keeps video, a recording, and speaker names."
    },
    {
      "question": "Which is better for a whole company?",
      "answer": "First ask who gets each note automatically; otherwise useful context stays with the recorder. Then compare permissions, retention, and enforced defaults. Krisp: Calendar, manager, and recurring-channel auto-sharing. Read AI: Workspace-wide participant and team report access."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I access and move the full meeting data?",
      "answer": "Krisp: MCP with transcripts and tasks, plus webhooks on Core. Read AI: Open-beta REST API and MCP with full meeting reports. Check the selected plan, authentication model, transcript scope, export format, and retention window for the workflow you need."
