Meeting Transcription

No Bot Joins Your Call. You Bring the Recording.

An exported audio file from your call software, a phone recording of an in-person meeting, a voice-memo standup recap — send it to @vustScribeBot and get a transcript, summary and action items back. There's no calendar access and nothing auto-joins anything; the recording you already have is the whole input.

Honest scope

You bring the recording — that's the whole model

This isn't a meeting-bot that auto-joins your recurring calls (see the Otter.ai comparison for that trade-off), and it isn't for a text transcript your call software already generated (see summarizing meeting notes for that). This page is the narrow middle case: you have an audio recording of a meeting — exported, downloaded, or recorded on your phone — and you want it turned into a transcript, summary and action items.

Files over 20 minutes are rejected upfront, no charge — trim or split first.

Real meeting-recording scenarios, and what Scribe returns from each.

A downloaded export from a call tool that recorded but didn't transcribe

Before

Your call software recorded the meeting and let you export an audio file, but its own transcription is a paid add-on you didn't turn on — you're left with 12 minutes of mp4/mp3 and no text.

After

Send the exported audio to @vustScribeBot. Back comes the transcript, a summary of what was decided, and the action items as a checklist — paid since it's over 5 minutes: the exact price is stated up front, the debit happens when the file is sent, and processing or delivery failure triggers an automatic refund.

A phone recording of an in-person meeting

Before

You recorded an in-person meeting on your phone because there was no shared doc and no call software involved at all — just people in a room and a voice memo running.

After

This works exactly like any other audio file: send the phone recording to Scribe, get transcript, summary and action items. There was never a 'meeting bot' to invite — the recording is the only input that matters.

A short 3-minute standup someone recorded for absent teammates

Before

A teammate records a 3-minute standup recap as a voice message for whoever missed it, and you're one of three people who need the gist without listening live.

After

Free tier: under 5 minutes, no charge, 3 uses a day. Forward it to Scribe and get a transcript plus the action items pulled out, so 'read the recap' replaces 'listen to the recap.'

How it works01–03

From meeting recording to transcript

    No calendar access, no meeting-participant bot — the recording you already have is the entire input.

Quality & trust

Honest scope

You bring the recording

This is not a meeting-bot that auto-joins recurring calls (see the Otter.ai comparison) and not for a text transcript your call software already generated (see summarizing meeting notes) — it's the narrow middle: audio recording in, transcript out.

20-minute ceiling, no partial processing

Recordings over 20 minutes are rejected upfront with no charge — trim to the segment you need.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does a bot join my Zoom or Google Meet call to record it?

No — Scribe has no calendar access and never joins a call as a participant. This page is specifically for the case where you already recorded the meeting yourself (or your call software exported an audio file) and now want that recording turned into text.

What if I only have a text transcript already, not audio?

If your call platform already generated a text transcript and you just need it summarized, that's a different job — see summarizing meeting notes from existing text. This page is for the audio recording itself, before any transcript exists.

What audio formats work for a meeting recording?

mp3, m4a, wav or ogg audio files, or a Telegram voice message/video note if that's how the recording ended up in your chat — up to 20 minutes and 20MB per file, matching Telegram's own limit.

My meeting recording is over 20 minutes — what now?

It's rejected upfront with no charge rather than partially processed. Trim the recording to the segment you actually need transcribed (the decision-making part, not the small talk) or split it into two files.

What do I get back from a meeting recording?

A full transcript, a summary of what was discussed, and a list of action items — in the language the meeting was conducted in. Short transcripts appear inline; longer ones come as a downloadable .txt file.

How much does transcribing a meeting recording cost?

Recordings of 5 minutes or less are free, up to 3 per day. For recordings from 5 to 20 minutes, the exact price is stated up front, the debit happens when you send the file, and processing or delivery failure triggers an automatic refund.
