How to transcribe a meeting recording
Export the recording
Download the recording from your meeting tool, or use the file from your recorder or phone. A video recording and an audio-only file both work.
Upload it or paste a Drive link
Choose the file above. If the recording was saved to Google Drive, share it with anyone who has the link and paste that link instead.
Find what was decided
Search the transcript for a name, a figure or a deadline. Where ReadVideo detects a change of speaker, the paragraph carries a speaker label you can rename to the person's name.
Write the minutes
Copy the full text into your minutes or an AI assistant to draft a summary and action items, and keep the timestamps so anyone can check the original.
Meeting transcription questions
Does it label who is speaking?
Often, not always. When ReadVideo detects a change of speaker it adds a label such as Speaker 1, which you can rename. With people talking over each other or a single far-away microphone, labels can be missing or wrong, so check them before you quote anyone.
Can it write the minutes for me?
ReadVideo gives you the full transcript and can generate chapters. To draft minutes, copy the text into the AI assistant you already use; the timestamps let you check its summary against what was actually said.
How long can the meeting be?
Signed in, a single recording can be up to 8 hours and 16 GB. Without signing in, one recording of up to 10 minutes is free to try.
