Creating a written transcript of your online meetings in ZOOM is easy. With Beey, you can have it ready in a matter of minutes. You can then keep the transcript as a written record of your meeting, or you can add it to your video recording in the form of captions.
Read our manual and tips for achieving high-quality transcriptions.
Please note:
The ZOOM application allows free accounts to record meetings directly to the user’s computer. Cloud recording is available only for paid accounts. Nevertheless, direct downloads suit our purposes and what’s more, you won’t need to take the extra step of downloading your recording once the meeting is finished.
