In short

The M4A audio file becomes the minutes: the engine reads the Russian speech and the sections Attendees, Agenda, Discussion by item are written from the transcript. The free plan gives 3 files a day of up to 30 minutes.

How it works

How to get the file and turn it into file

  1. 1

    Send it as a voice message

    For a voice message the Telegram Bot API asks for an .OGG file encoded with OPUS, an .MP3 file or an .M4A file

  2. 2

    Attach the recording

    The recording of the M4A audio file is attached to the widget of the page with the language of the speech set to Russian, and the minutes comes back as a file of text.

  3. 3

    Run the instruction of the minutes

    The instruction of the task asks for the minutes and puts the answer about the M4A audio file into the sections Attendees, Agenda, Discussion by item; a claim that is not in the recording is not written.

  4. 4

    Tell the engine what it hears

    The engine reads 99+ languages; this M4A audio file is in Russian, so the language of the widget is set to Russian for the minutes.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    A voice message of the Telegram Bot API is an .OGG file encoded with OPUS, an .MP3 file or an .M4A file

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

Google Drive keeps the M4A among the files it stores: any file type can be stored in Drive, and the list of the audio formats it previews names MP3, MPEG, WAV, .ogg and .opus. That is the part that depends on the M4A; everything after it is the work of the minutes, and it is the same for every recording.

  • Take the file of the M4A audio file as soon as you have it.
