Why doesn't my Fireflies meeting count match my calendar?
The Fireflies.ai help pages give 5 common reasons. The first to rule out: If automatic joining is off, or your preferences limit which meetings Fireflies joins, calendar meetings outside those preferences are not recorded.
Is it broken, or just quiet?
A number can fall because fewer people came, or because something stopped counting them. Below are the causes the Fireflies.ai help pages give, and how to check each one yourself.

How does Fireflies.ai work with Feder?
- Connect Fireflies.ai to Feder and it joins your Wins apps.
- When you connect Fireflies.ai, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
See whether you can trust the numbers in Fireflies.ai, one of your Wins apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Fireflies.ai.
