How to transcribe a meeting recording

Upload or record a meeting, generate a transcript, and turn the spoken discussion into searchable notes, decisions, action items, and exports.

Instant access. No credit card required.

Sign up is required before uploading or transcribing.

Only upload or record meetings when your organization, participants, and local rules allow it.

Start with the recording you already have

Meeting recordings often contain decisions, customer language, deadlines, objections, and follow-up details. A transcript makes those moments searchable instead of buried in a replay.

Good fit for

  • Zoom recordings
  • Google Meet recordings
  • Teams meetings
  • Client calls
  • Internal planning sessions

What the Transcript Helps With

Meeting notes

Search the transcript for decisions, owners, dates, open questions, and follow-up commitments.

Async review

Share DOCX, PDF, or TXT exports with people who missed the meeting or need exact wording.

Captions and accessibility

Export SRT or VTT when the recording needs captions for a video player or archive.

Upload-Based Workflow

These pages are written for uploaded audio or video files. For video platforms, export a file you are allowed to process instead of pasting a video-page URL.

  1. Download the Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, or browser recording, or record a browser meeting with tab audio and microphone.
  2. Upload the audio or video file and enable speaker labels when multiple people speak.
  3. Review the transcript, copy decisions into notes, and export TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, or VTT.

Common Issues and Fixes

Missing microphone audio

Use the Tab + Microphone Recorder when you need both browser audio and your own voice.

Action items are mixed into conversation

Search for phrases like follow up, owner, due date, next step, and action item after transcription.
