When to use each tool
Use Cluely when you need:
- You already prefer Cluely's workflow
- You mainly need post-meeting notes or capture
- You do not need private help while the meeting is happening
Use OLVA when you need:
- Private real-time help during sales, customer, product, or executive meetings
- Automatic question detection and contextual answers while you listen
- Botless support across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack huddles, Webex, and in-person meetings
Bottom line
Choose Cluely when its specific workflow is exactly what your team needs. Choose OLVA when the live meeting itself is the moment that matters. OLVA still gives you transcripts, summaries, insights, and searchable memory after the call, but its biggest advantage is private assistance while you are still in the conversation.
Your best meeting moments happen before the recap
OLVA helps you stay present, answer clearly, and follow up faster without adding a visible bot to the call.
