  3. 3

    Ask the written instruction for the written notes

    The ready instruction reads the transcript of the Microsoft Teams recording as the student who missed the class, and the written notes comes in the sections Thesis, Key ideas, Definitions.

  4. 4

    The recording of the Microsoft Teams recording is in English, and that is one of the 99+ languages the engine reads; the setting of the widget says English and the written notes follows.

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.
