What is an AI meeting summarizer?

It turns a meeting recording into short notes. This AI meeting summarizer transcribes the recording, then writes a recap and lists the decisions, the action items with owners and due dates, and the open questions.

Yes. Free accounts get 3 meeting summaries a day, for meetings up to 30 minutes. Paid plans have no daily limit and take meetings up to 3.5 hours. Summaries never cost credits.

Does a bot join my meeting?

No. You record the meeting in your browser or upload the recording afterwards. Nothing joins the call and the tool never needs access to your calendar.

Can it summarize Zoom, Teams and Google Meet meetings?

Yes. Download the recording from the app, usually an MP4 or M4A, and upload it. The table above shows where each app saves recordings.

How does it know who owns an action item?

From what people say, like "Marco, can you take the API docs?". It doesn't identify voices, so if a task was never given to anyone by name, it's marked "No owner named" instead of a guess.

What languages does it support?

Recordings in 100+ languages. The summary is written in the language the meeting was held in, so a meeting in Spanish gets Spanish notes.

How long can the meeting be?

Up to 30 minutes on the free plan, 60 minutes on Starter, 2 hours on Basic and 3.5 hours on Pro, Team and Enterprise. Longer meetings can be split into parts.

Can I summarize a transcript instead of a recording?

Yes. Paste the text or upload the TXT or DOCX that Zoom or Teams created. You get the same decisions, action items and open questions, shown in Smart Notes.

How accurate are the summaries?

It's told to list only what was said and to leave owners and dates empty rather than guess. Every decision and task has a time, so you can check the line in the transcript before you send the notes.

Can I delete a meeting?

Yes. Delete it from History and the recording's transcript and summary are removed from your account.

Transcript excerpt8 min recording

0:00Okay, I think that's everyone. Kenji, I think you're on mute. No, there you go.

0:07Sorry, sorry. My dog has decided the delivery guy is a threat. He's fine now. Mostly.

0:14Ha, no worries. Before we start, did anyone else get the email about the office coffee machine? Apparently the new one needs an app to make an espresso.

0:27Of course it does. I'm bringing my own kettle. Okay, sorry, go ahead, Priya.

0:34Okay, so quick agenda. Release 3.4 status, the Northgate bank sync latency, and Aisha has the onboarding test results. Kenji, let's start with you. Where are the beta numbers?

0:47Yeah, so the beta is at 412 users now. Crash-free rate is 99.2, sorry, 99.1 as of this morning. Our bar for shipping is 99.5, so we're under it.

1:02And almost all of that is one crash. It's the CSV export on older phones, anything still on OS version 10. If you export more than a few hundred transactions, the app just dies.

AI summary

Team Sync: Release 3.4, Bank Sync, and Onboarding Redesign

The team met to review the status of release 3.4, addressing critical crash issues with the CSV export feature, Northgate bank sync latency, and onboarding usability test results. Due to a crash affecting older devices on CSV export, the team decided to remove the feature from release 3.4 and defer it to 3.5, shifting the release date to Thursday the 12th to allow for a full regression pass. Additionally, they evaluated onboarding flows and decided to adopt the shorter three-screen option B. The meeting concluded with clear task assignments for feature flagging, regression testing, specs delivery, and release communications, while leaving the Northgate API latency cause and shared budget pricing open.

Decisions3

Remove CSV export from 3.4 and move it to 3.5 — The crash is in that code path, only about 3% of users touch it, and the fix is too risky for this week.2:51
Move 3.4 release from Tuesday the 10th to Thursday the 12th — We need a full regression pass after the flag change and we're not shipping under 99.5 crash-free.3:58
Go with option B for onboarding — Five out of six finished versus three out of six, and it's less engineering work.6:44

How to Summarize a Meeting in 4 Steps

From recording to shareable notes in a few minutes. No setup, no calendar access, no app to install.

1.Record or upload
Press record for a meeting in the room, or drop the file your meeting app saved: MP3, M4A, WAV, MP4, MOV or WEBM.
Tip
Put the phone or laptop in the middle of the table. Closer is clearer.
2.Get the transcript
The recording becomes a timestamped transcript in the language the meeting was held in.
Tip
Meetings up to 30 minutes are free. Paid plans go up to 3.5 hours.
3.Get the decisions and tasks
The AI meeting summarizer writes a short recap, then lists the decisions, the action items with owner and due date, and the open questions.
Tip
Owners and dates come only from what was said. If nobody took a task, it says so.
4.Check and share
Click a time to see that line in the transcript. Then copy the notes into Slack, an email or your team doc.
Tip
Copied action items arrive as checkboxes, ready for a task list.

What the AI Meeting Summarizer Pulls Out

A transcript tells you everything that was said. A meeting summary tells you what changed. Each summary has four parts, in the order people need them.

A short recap

One paragraph on what the meeting was about and where it landed, for anyone who missed it.

Decisions, with the reason

Only what the group agreed on, not ideas that were floated and dropped.

Action items with owners

Each task with the person who took it and the deadline they said, like "Priya, by Friday".

Open questions

What was parked for later, so it doesn't get lost before the next meeting.

No Bot Joins Your Meeting

Many meeting tools send a bot into the call, and someone has to let it in. This AI meeting summarizer works from the recording, so nothing joins and nothing needs calendar access.

Record in the room

For in-person meetings, interviews and phone calls on speaker. The recording runs in your browser.

Upload what your app saved

Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet all save recordings you can download and drop in.

Paste a transcript

Already have the text? Paste it or upload the TXT or DOCX, and the summary opens as Smart Notes.
