In short

What the AAC stores is what the engine needs. The English speech becomes the table of action items in the sections Summary, Decisions, Action items; one file may be up to 30 minutes, and 3 files a day are free.

How it works

How to get the file and turn it into action items

  1. 1

    Send it as an audio file

    For an audio file the Telegram Bot API asks for the .MP3 or .M4A format

  2. 2

    Attach the recording

    The widget takes the file of the AAC audio file as it is and marks the speech as English, so the engine does not have to guess what it is about.

  3. 3

    Ask for the table of action items

    The text of the AAC audio file is given to the instruction of the table of action items, and the answer is written in the sections Summary, Decisions, Action items, one after another.

  4. 4

    Tell the engine what it hears

    The engine reads 99+ languages; this AAC audio file is in English, so the language of the widget is set to English for the table of action items.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    In the table of the codecs and the containers of OBS Studio the AAC row names the MP4, MOV, MKV and TS containers

The result

What comes back from the engine

  • TXT

    One segment per line, the way a person wrote it down. It is the format to paste into a ticket, a chat or a document.

  • TXT, CSV

    The start and the end time of every segment, and the speakers named separately when you ask for it.

  • SRT, VTT

    SRT and VTT with the time of every line, so the recording can carry its own subtitles.

  • Markdown, DOCX

    The transcript is edited through the API and exported as Markdown for a wiki, or as DOCX for a review.
