Transcription

Transcription captures all spoken words during a meeting and makes them available as a transcript after the meeting, with speaker attribution.

How Transcription Works

Transcription is automatic — there is no Start/Stop button. Whenever a meeting is live, speech is captured in real time:

• Every word is transcribed and attributed to the speaker who said it
• Words are collected on the server as the meeting runs
• The transcript is in each speaker's original language

Viewing the Transcript

After the meeting ends, a recap message appears in the meeting chat. Open it and switch to the Transcript tab to read the full transcript on its own page — see Meeting Recap.

The transcript page can show the transcript translated into your language — it's generated in the speakers' original languages and translated on demand when you open it in a different language.

Use Cases

• Meeting minutes — Capture everything said for reference
• Compliance — Keep records of discussions for regulatory purposes
• Absent participants — Share the transcript with people who couldn't attend
• Review — Go back and review specific parts of the discussion

Important Notes

• The quality of transcription depends on audio quality — use a good microphone and minimize background noise
• The transcript is captured in each speaker's original language; open the transcript page in your own language to read it translated
• The transcript is produced once the meeting ends and reached from the recap in the meeting chat
