How to record and transcribe Zoom, Meet, and Teams meetings. Capture speakers, timestamps, action items, and export notes in minutes.

Turn meeting recordings into clear, actionable notes with speaker labels, timestamps, and searchable text. Here’s the fastest way to transcribe Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams.

Record Your Meeting (Platform Tips)

Zoom

  • Click Record → choose Local or Cloud recording.
  • For best quality, ask participants to use headsets.
  • After the call, locate the MP4/M4A file in Zoom’s recordings folder.

Google Meet

  • Use Activities → Recording (requires eligible Workspace tier).
  • Find the recording in Drive → Meet Recordings or via email.

Microsoft Teams

  • Start recording from the meeting controls.
  • Access the file via SharePoint/OneDrive after the call.

Transcribe in 3 Steps

  1. Upload the audio/video file (MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4).
  2. Select language and enable speaker diarization for multi-speaker calls.
  3. Export notes to TXT, DOCX, PDF—or SRT/VTT for captions.

Pro Tips for Cleaner Meeting Notes

  • Ask speakers to mute when not talking; reduces crosstalk.
  • Enable diarization to separate speakers automatically.
  • Use timestamps to jump to decisions and action items.
  • Split very long calls into 60-minute chunks for faster processing.
