Meeting Notes & Transcript Summarizer

Meeting Notes & Transcript Summarizer

Turn a meeting transcript into a clean summary with key points, action items, decisions and per-speaker stats — or transcribe live from your microphone. The summary runs 100% in your browser.

Live captions use your browser's built-in speech recognition (works best in Chrome & Edge). Note that, unlike the summarizer, live recognition may send audio to your browser vendor's service to convert speech to text.

          How to Use the Meeting Notes Summarizer

          1. Add your transcript. Paste it in, or upload a .txt, .srt or .vtt file exported from Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Otter or any captions tool. You can also record live from your microphone.
          2. Keep speaker labels. Lines like "Alice: ..." let the tool measure who spoke most and attach owners to action items.
          3. Choose options. Pick a summary length and toggle action items, decisions, questions and speaker stats.
          4. Generate and export. Get a structured summary instantly, then copy it or download clean meeting minutes as Markdown or text.

          How the Summary Works (and What It Can and Can't Do)

          The summarizer reads your transcript, scores each sentence by how many important, frequently discussed words it contains, and selects the most representative ones to form a concise summary and a list of key points. It then scans for action items (phrases like "I'll", "we need to", "follow up", "by Friday"), decisions ("we agreed", "let's go with", "approved") and open questions, and builds a per-speaker breakdown when your transcript has speaker labels. All of this happens entirely in your browser, so your meeting text is never uploaded.

          Because it runs locally without a large AI model, it uses extractive summarisation — it selects and organises the most important sentences rather than rewriting them in new words. That makes it fast, free and private, and it works very well on real transcripts. For a polished, reworded executive summary you may still want to refine the output.

          About audio files: accurate transcription of an uploaded audio recording needs either a large on-device AI model or a paid cloud service, neither of which fits a fast, private, free browser tool. So this tool focuses on text: use the live microphone option to capture a meeting, or upload the transcript your meeting app already produces, then summarise it here.

          Frequently Asked Questions

          Can I upload an audio or video file to transcribe?
          Accurate audio transcription needs a large AI model or a paid cloud service, which would make the tool slow or non-private, so this tool works with text. Use the live microphone option to capture audio, or upload the transcript your meeting app exports, then summarise it here.
          Is my transcript uploaded anywhere?
          The summary, key points, action items and all analysis run entirely in your browser, so your transcript is never uploaded. The live microphone option is the exception: browser speech recognition may use your browser vendor's service to convert speech to text.
          What transcript formats are supported?
          Plain text plus subtitle formats like .srt and .vtt, which are what Zoom, Teams, Google Meet and Otter export. The "Clean timestamps" button strips timecodes and cue numbers so only the spoken text remains.
          How does it find action items?
          It looks for sentences with commitment and task language such as "I'll", "we need to", "let's", "follow up", "assign" and deadlines like "by Friday". If the line has a speaker label, that person is shown as the owner.
          Does the live recorder work in every browser?
          Live transcription uses the Web Speech API, which works best in Chrome and Edge on desktop. If your browser does not support it, you will see a message; you can still paste or upload a transcript.
          Is it free?
          Yes, completely free with no sign-up and no limits. The summariser also works offline once the page has loaded.
