Recording vs. no recording

This is the decision that splits most firms. Zocks says it is a 100% no-recording notetaker across virtual, in-person and phone meetings, and still produces a transcript on demand. That can make client conversations and compliance reviews simpler, because there is no stored audio to secure, retain or produce.

Jump records meetings, including in-person meetings through its mobile apps, and gives account owners controls for retention periods, role-based access, recording disclosures and consent. Firms that want a full record of what was said, for training or dispute resolution, may prefer that.

Ask your compliance team first: does the firm want recordings to exist? The answer often picks the vendor for you.

Pricing compared

For a solo advisor who only needs meeting notes, Zocks Essentials ($67 per user per month billed annually) is the cheaper entry point, against Jump Meet at $100 per advisor per month. Once you add form filling and document workflows, the gap narrows: Zocks Professional is $117 billed annually, and Jump Meet plus Onboard is $150.

Prices are as listed on each vendor’s pricing page on October 21, 2026, and partner or annual discounts may apply. A dedicated admin-assistant seat on Zocks is $25 per month.

Features beyond meeting notes

Both tools have grown from notetakers into broader AI assistants, which the T3 survey describes as creeping into CRM and workflow territory.

• Jump sells three products: Meet (notes, prep, follow-ups, scheduling), Onboard (AI-assisted account opening, automatic form completion, document intake) and Grow (meeting analytics, proactive client recommendations, coaching and held-away-asset opportunities). All plans include 40+ integrations, an AI Associate, an email assistant and MCP access.
• Zocks bundles features by tier: meeting prep and notes in Essentials; form filling, client profiles, coaching and its MCP connection in Professional; and native scheduling, automatic email replies, document data extraction and Zapier workflows in Ultimate. Its “client signals” flag life events such as career changes or inheritances from conversations.

Market share and advisor satisfaction

In the 2026 T3/Inside Information Software Survey (2,906 respondents), Jump led the new AI notetaker category with 22.68% share and an 8.55 rating; Zocks was second with 10.22% and 8.35. Both well exceed the category average rating of 7.58 and the next tool, Zoom Workplace (6.37%, 7.66). Kitces Research found the same pattern in 2025: advisor-specific tools such as Jump and Zocks rated higher with advisors than generic notetakers.

How to run a fair two-week trial

1. Pick five real meeting types: a prospect meeting, an annual review, a planning meeting, a phone check-in and an in-person meeting.
2. Run each through both tools with client consent, using the same CRM.
3. Score the notes on accuracy, the time your team spends fixing them, and how cleanly tasks land in the CRM.
4. Send both vendors your compliance questionnaire and ask for their SOC 2 Type II report.
5. Decide on total cost for your whole team, including assistant seats.
