Use your microphone
For a meeting in the same room, open the recording page and choose Microphone. Allow microphone access, choose the language, and check that the input meter responds before you start. Place the microphone where it can pick up everyone.
Microphone mode captures the selected microphone input. If you’re wearing headphones on a video call, the other people’s voices may be audible only to you. Use the notetaker for a supported call, or upload a recording from the meeting platform afterwards.
Upload a recording you already have
Choose Upload on the recording page for a voice memo, a recording from another device, or a meeting recording you downloaded. Keep the original file until you’ve opened the finished transcript.
Send the notetaker to an online meeting
If your plan supports the notetaker, choose Paste link on the recording page. Use the join URL for a Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet call that has started or is about to start. Make sure someone can admit the notetaker if there’s a lobby or waiting room.
For recurring meetings, connect the supported calendar integration and review your auto-join settings. If a call blocks the notetaker, use an authorised recording from the meeting platform and upload it.
Find the result in Transcripts
Once processing finishes, open Transcripts and look for the title. Check speaker names and important details before you share the transcript or create formal minutes.
