How it works

How to get the file and turn it into action items

  1. 1

    Set the level

    The recording level is set with the input slider of the Recording Meter, and the manual asks to aim for a maximum peak of around minus 6 dB

  2. 2

    Upload the file

    The file of the Recording in Audacity is sent as an attachment; the language of the speech is Russian, and the table of action items comes back in the export of the service.

  3. 3

    Apply the instruction of the task

    The transcript of the Recording in Audacity goes to the instruction that is written for the table of action items, and the sections of the answer are Summary, Decisions, Action items.

  4. 4

    Mark the language of the speech

    The engine reads 99+ languages; this Recording in Audacity is in Russian, so the language of the widget is set to Russian for the table of action items.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    Right after the recording it is strongly recommended to export it at once to WAV or AIFF, ideally to an external drive, as a safety copy before the editing starts

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.

Tips
