In short

What the Android 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

    Stop and find the file

    The recording is stopped with the Stop Screen Record item of the drop-down menu, and the video is found in the Gallery app

  2. 2

    Send the file to the engine

    The engine takes the Screen recording on an Android phone from the widget of the page; the speech is in English, and the table of action items comes back with the timecodes.

  3. 3

    Ask for the table of action items

    The instruction of the table of action items is written for this task already: it reads the text of the Screen recording on an Android phone and asks for Summary, Decisions, Action items, and it keeps every claim to the transcript.

  4. 4

    Name the language of the speech

    The speech of the Screen recording on an Android phone is English, one of the 99+ languages the engine reads, and the widget is left on English while the table of action items is written.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    Before the recording starts it is chosen whether the audio is recorded and whether the touches on the screen are shown, and the recording begins after the countdown

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.
