How it works

How to get the file and turn it into file

    Choose the resolution

    The wanted resolution is chosen: 1080p or 4K, according to the resolution of the screen

  2. 2

    Give the file to the service

    The Loom video goes to the service through the upload widget; the speech is English, and the minutes comes back into the chat.

  3. 3

    Ask the written instruction for the minutes

    The instruction that is set for this task goes through the transcript of the Loom video and writes the minutes in the sections Attendees, Agenda, Discussion by item; nothing is added that was not said.

  4. 4

    Set the language of the speech

    The speech of the Loom video is English, one of the 99+ languages the engine reads, and the widget is left on English while the minutes is written.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    The app of Loom for iOS records a video in 720p and does not change the resolution

The result

What comes back from the engine

  • 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.
