Overview
Vinyl is an AI meeting assistant for solo, small, and mid-sized accounting firms that joins Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet calls automatically, records in-person meetings through its mobile app, and produces structured summaries with action items and draft follow-up content such as emails and scope-of-work documents.
It cuts the time spent on meeting admin. Instead of writing notes manually and then transferring them to your practice management system, Vinyl handles both steps automatically. An AI chat feature lets you query any previous meeting to pull out a specific point or decision without scrolling through a full transcript.
The platform pays back most clearly for firms that run regular advisory or onboarding calls. After each meeting, the summary and action items appear in your practice management system without anyone typing them up. For a firm running 10 or more client calls a week, the time saved on note-taking and follow-up drafting adds up quickly.
Compared to general-purpose transcription tools like Otter or Fireflies, Vinyl is built for accounting workflows. It routes outputs to practice management rather than dropping transcripts into a standalone app your team has to check separately.
Vinyl is a Xero Growth Partner. Plans are priced by monthly recording hours. Every monthly plan supports unlimited users, so a small firm can keep per-head costs low.

A free trial is offered; no permanent free tier exists.

Pros and Cons
Pros
- Firms that run advisory or onboarding meetings on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet.
- Practices that want meeting summaries and action items pushed into Karbon, FYI, or Xero Practice Manager.
- Solo and small firms that need 20 to 150 hours of meeting capture per month at a flat fee.
Cons
- Firms whose client conversations stay over email rather than calls. Vinyl pays back at meeting volume.
- Practices not on Karbon, FYI, or Xero Practice Manager. Those are the published practice management integrations.
- Firms recording more than 150 hours a month. Above Scaling, Vinyl moves to a custom-quoted high-volume plan.
