Transcript

The Transcript tab fills in as people talk. Read it back to catch a number, a name, or a job title you missed, without interrupting anyone to ask again.

It is also what Chat and Checklist read. Anything the transcript captures, they can use.

Named speakers

Lines are labelled with the participant's name rather than a generic speaker number. That makes the transcript quicker to read back, and it lets you ask Chat about someone by name.

A timeline, not only words

The transcript carries what happened in the meeting alongside what was said:

• Attendees joining and leaving
• Cameras turning on and off
• Screen sharing starting and stopping
• Participant identity changes
• Recording pausing and resuming

Messages sent in the meeting chat appear too, marked as Meeting chat.

These lines are the context words alone cannot give you. Who was in the room when something was agreed is often the thing you need, and it is the kind of detail nobody types into their notes.

Camera events are hidden in large meetings, where they would bury the conversation.

Copying it

Copy transcript, in the window header, copies everything captured so far with timestamps. Spoken lines carry the speaker, and event lines carry what happened. It works from any tab, so it is also how you save a transcript while reading the Chat or Checklist tab.

Do this before the meeting ends if you want the live transcript itself. It is discarded when the meeting closes, and the processed transcript that replaces it is a separate pass over the recording. See Save anything you want to keep.

While recording is paused

Pausing the recording pauses transcription. The composer in Chat shows how far the transcript runs, and Chat keeps answering from what it already has.

Resuming picks the transcript back up.

The finished transcript is a different thing

What you read here is produced live, in the middle of the meeting. Expect the processed transcript to differ once the meeting ends.

The finished one carries corrected wording and timestamps that line up with the recording, and you can rename a speaker across every line at once. Read this one in the moment and that one afterward.
