How it works

How to get Google Meet transcript

  1. 1

    Find the file on the Drive

    The organiser opens the Google Meet folder on the Drive and looks for the recording of the meeting.

  2. 2

    Name the file before you send it

    Give the file of the Meet recording a name that says what is inside it: the name travels with the export and saves a search later.

  3. 3

    Check the length of the recording

    One file may be up to 30 minutes, on every plan. A longer the Meet recording is cut into parts before it is sent here.

  4. 4

    Set the language of the file

    99+ languages are read, 99+ languages. Set the one the Meet recording is in, or leave the setting on automatic detection.

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.

The case

What the recording does not give you

The text of the Meet recording is what turns a meeting into something a team can work with. Getting the file is the part that depends on the platform; the text depends on nothing but the engine. A search then turns into a quotation with a timestamp, because the time of every line stayed in the text.

Tips

  • A correction in the editor does not move the time of any other segment.

  • Keep the Meet recording in a folder of its own, so the export lands where you look for it.

  • The free plan gives 3 files a day, and the paid plan is $10 a month when you pay yearly.

  • A headset microphone gives a cleaner text than the microphone of the room.

  • 99+ languages are read, so set the one your recording is in.
