Podcast episode to action items in English
Podcast episode to action items in English: send the file and get the text with the timecodes. One file may be up to 30 minutes on the free plan, no minute limit on Pro.
What the Podcasts 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 to get the file and turn it into action items
- 1
Mind the default
By default the app downloads the audio of the episode, and not the video of it
- 2
Hand the file over
The engine takes the Podcast episode from the widget of the page; the speech is in English, and the table of action items comes back with the timecodes.
- 3
Give the transcript to the instruction
The ready instruction reads the transcript of the Podcast episode as the project manager, and the table of action items comes in the sections Summary, Decisions, Action items.
- 4
Mark the language of the speech
The engine reads 99+ languages; the speech of this Podcast episode is in English, and the widget carries that setting for the table of action items.
- 5
Check the file before the upload
The downloaded episode is an MP3 file, and the app can offer it in a higher or in a lower quality
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.
