Objeq vs Cluely in 2026, and the difference is who the tool is hiding from
Objeq whispers the next line on your live sales calls. See it answer "It's too expensive" →
TL;DR. Cluely is a meeting assistant for any meeting. It takes notes, it answers when you hit a key, and the top plan is sold on being invisible to screen-sharing software. Objeq is a sales copilot for one moment, the objection, and it speaks without being asked.

What Cluely says about itself
"Cluely takes perfect meeting notes and gives real-time answers, all while completely undetectable."
Cluely, home page, cluely.com, checked 9 Nov 2026.The page title on that home page is "Cluely | Undetectable AI Notetaker & Meeting Assistant", and the first line on the screen is "#1 Undetectable AI for Meetings". On how it behaves during the call: "Cluely listens in to the conversation. It picks up the context of your meeting in real time, so it can help when you need it", and then "Hit Cmd/Ctrl + Enter and Cluely helps you with AI in the moment." The two install buttons are "Download on the App Store" and "Get the desktop app". Same page, same date.
Price
From cluely.com/pricing, read on 9 Nov 2026. The page has a Desktop and Mobile toggle and a Monthly and Annually toggle, and three plans:
- Starter free, "Get for Mac". Limited AI responses, limited meeting notetaking, up to 3 files, customize instructions and upload files, ask AI about all your past meetings
- Pro renders $19.99 a month on the monthly toggle. Unlimited AI responses, unlimited meeting notetaking, unlimited access to the latest AI models, priority support. The page title says "Pro from $11.99/mo", which is the annual rate
- Pro + Undetectability $149.99 a month. "Everything in Pro, plus... Completely hidden to meeting screen sharing software"
The feature table on that page compares five rows: AI messages per day, meeting notetaking, custom prompting, custom keybinds, and undetectability to screen share. There is no team plan and no per-seat plan. We also requested cluely.com/enterprise on the same date: HTTP 308 to the home page. So nothing about seats, admins or sales floors is published anywhere we can read.
Objeq is $99 a seat a month on Starter and $149 on Pro, published on the pricing page, monthly, per seat, no seat minimum and no platform fee.
Cluely's own compare links say which category it thinks it is in
This is the most useful thing on their site and it is in the footer. The compare links Cluely publishes are "Cluely vs Otter", "Cluely vs Granola", "Otter Alternatives" and "What Is an AI Notetaker". Otter and Granola are notetakers. Cluely is not positioning against Gong, Balto, Cresta or any sales coaching tool, and on its pricing page the audience is listed as "meetings, homework, sales calls, or just curious".
That is not a criticism, it is the answer to "which of these two do I buy". Our read, and we are the interested party here: a tool that serves four audiences at $19.99 is not built around a two-call close cycle, and a tool that charges $99 a seat had better be.

Where Cluely wins, and it is not close
- Price. $19.99 against $99 a seat. Just under five times cheaper at list, and there is a free plan
- It does not need the call in a browser tab. A desktop app is not tied to one tab, so the Zoom desktop app or a phone on speaker are at least possible. They publish no platform list, so that is reasoning from the install button and not from their words. Objeq needs the call in a Chrome tab or it hears nothing
- Screen sharing. They sell being invisible to it. We do not offer it
- Any meeting, not just sales. Interviews, lectures, your own one-on-one
Where Objeq wins
- Hebrew. Transcription, objection detection and the whisper, all native Hebrew, not translated from English. Cluely publishes no language list at all
- It speaks without being asked. A rep who is losing a call is not going to stop and press Cmd+Enter. That is the entire design argument
- It is about the objection, not the notes. 17 objection treatments written out, and the panel composes the next step rather than handing you one line
- There is a manager. Coach score, debrief, dashboard and leaderboard, because a sales floor is bought by whoever runs it
What we can prove, and what we cannot
Everything quoted from Cluely above is linked and dated to 9 November 2026, read from the live pages. We have not installed their app, we have not spoken to them, and we cannot tell you how good their answers are in a real meeting or whether the undetectability claim holds against any particular screen-sharing tool. We have no view on the ethics of either.
On our side: Objeq used to publish "under two seconds" for the whisper and that claim is withdrawn. On the 37 practice rounds we can time end to end, the honest clock reads four to fifteen seconds, and one round out of thirty-seven came in under two. What we will say is that the line is on the rep's screen while the call is still running. We have no published customer win-rate study. The facts page carries the whole list, dated.
The rest of the cluster
Other tools that try to help during the call rather than after it: Objeq vs Cloozr, Objeq vs Balto, Objeq vs Cresta, Objeq vs Avoma and Objeq vs Gong.

FAQ
What does Cluely cost?
Starter is free, Pro renders $19.99 a month on the monthly toggle, and Pro + Undetectability is $149.99 a month. The pricing page title says "Pro from $11.99/mo", which is the annual rate. No team plan and no per-seat plan are published, and cluely.com/enterprise returns HTTP 308 to the home page. Read 9 Nov 2026.
Is Cluely a sales tool?
Not specifically. Its pricing page lists the audience as "meetings, homework, sales calls, or just curious", and the compare links in its own footer are against Otter and Granola, which are notetakers. Objeq is built for one moment on a sales call.
Does Cluely support Hebrew?
We cannot say. No language list appears on the home page or the pricing page as read on 9 Nov 2026. Objeq is English and Hebrew end to end, and Hebrew is native rather than translated.
Does Objeq hide from screen sharing?
No, and it does not claim to. Objeq says only the rep sees the whisper, and it is a Chrome side panel sitting next to the call tab. Cluely charges $149.99 a month for being "completely hidden to meeting screen sharing software".
Which one speaks first?
Cluely waits for a key: "Hit Cmd/Ctrl + Enter and Cluely helps you with AI in the moment." Objeq listens to both sides and whispers when the deal starts slipping, with nothing to press.
Can I run Cluely on Windows?
The pricing page button we read says "Get for Mac" and the install links are the App Store and a desktop app. Windows is not named on either page, and cluely.com/windows returned HTTP 404 on 9 Nov 2026, so we cannot say. Objeq needs Chrome, on any machine that runs Chrome.
Summary. Cluely is an undetectable notetaker that answers when you ask, for $19.99 a month, on a Mac or a phone, for any meeting. Objeq is a Chrome side panel at $99 a seat that hears the objection and whispers the treatment while the call is still running, in Hebrew or English, with a dashboard for whoever runs the floor. Different tools. The price gap tells you so.
