Starlings vs. your tool stack
One workspace instead of five tools.
Many teams run their projects on Zoom, Slack, Notion and a meeting notetaker, joined by integrations. Each tool works. Each project’s history ends up split across all of them, and your agents need a connection to each one.
| Starlings | your tool stack | |
|---|---|---|
| Calls | Hosted from a Mac or iPhone. Guests join from a browser, with no account. | Zoom hosts the call. Notes come from a separate notetaker. |
| Call notes | Transcribed on the host’s device and filed on the project when the call ends, with suggested tasks. | The notetaker writes them. Someone files them, or an integration copies them into another tool. |
| Tasks and docs | On the same project as the calls and the chat. | In Notion or a task tool, linked to calls by hand. |
| Chat | One thread per person, group or project, next to the work. | Slack, in channels that are not tied to a project. |
| AI agents | Claude connects once, through one MCP endpoint, and works across every part, as you. | Zoom, Slack and Notion each have their own MCP server. An agent connects to each one and pieces the project together. |
| Pricing | Proposed: a flat price per workspace. People and agents are included. | Each tool is priced per user, so every new person adds a seat in each one. |
| Upkeep | Nothing to connect between calls, notes, tasks and chat. | You keep the integrations between the tools working. |
