Transcribe an Arabic community meeting in Sweden and write the minutes from text, not memory.
A 2.5-hour Arabic-language community meeting recorded in Sweden is transcribed in about 5 minutes, with Arabic detected automatically and a chapter for each part of the agenda. The first 20 minutes are free, and twelve monthly meetings of that length, 1,800 minutes, fit the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes.
For the secretary who keeps the record
The meeting decides things in Arabic. The secretary needs them on paper by the following week.
Agenda items become chapters
Each item, from the budget to the summer activities, gets a timestamped chapter, so the secretary can jump to the vote on item four instead of searching the whole recording.
Numbers that were said aloud
Amounts, dates, room bookings and names mentioned during the meeting are gathered in one list, which is where most draft minutes start.
A phone on the table is enough
A voice memo at 64 kbps uses about 28.8 MB an hour, so 2.5 hours is roughly 72 MB and goes straight into the box on this page. A long video of a hybrid meeting can go through the upload page.
Ask the chat, not the group
Type a question such as when the next general meeting was set for, and the chat answers from the transcript with the timestamp.
Why the minutes come late
Two hours of discussion and one volunteer with a notebook.
✗ Notes by hand
The secretary writes quickly while also taking part, and the draft minutes wait until someone has time to replay the recording.
- Decisions remembered differently by different members
- A long recording that nobody replays
- Amounts and dates copied wrongly
- Minutes that arrive a month later
- Tools built for English that miss Arabic
- Members who missed the meeting left guessing
✓ Minutes from the transcript
The recording becomes Arabic text with chapters, and the brief lists what was decided and what is still open.
- The whole discussion in Arabic
- Chairs and speakers named in the summary
- A chapter per agenda item
- Decisions and next steps in the brief
- DOCX to edit into the minutes
- Text to share with members who were absent
Sample output
A monthly association meeting in Arabic, at the agenda points.
Illustrative lines written for this page, not from a real association. In English: peace be upon you, we start by reading the agenda; item two is the budget for the children's summer activities; we need volunteers to help with the Saturday language classes; we will email the minutes before the next meeting.

FAQ
Arabic community meetings, answered.
How quickly is a 2.5-hour meeting ready?
In about 5 minutes. A 3-hour annual meeting takes around 6, because the pace is roughly 2 minutes of processing per hour of audio. Upload from the hall before the chairs are stacked and the text is there by the time you are home.
Members speak different Arabic dialects and some English. Does that work?
Arabic is detected automatically as the meeting's main language, and English mixed into the speech is handled in the same transcript. A meeting that switches language is detected on its main language, so a section held entirely in another language is best uploaded as its own file.
What will a year of meetings cost?
Three meetings of 2.5 hours, 450 minutes, fit the $6 pack of 500 minutes, and twelve of them, 1,800 minutes, fit the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes. An association that also records workshops and an annual meeting can take the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes. Credits never expire, and prices are in US dollars.
Can the transcript stand as the official minutes?
It is an AI transcript to work from, not a certified or official record. Most secretaries use it to draft the minutes and then have them approved the usual way, checking names and amounts against the recording where a decision matters.
Is there a size limit for the recording?
One file can run up to 10 hours or 5 GB. Before a first pack, uploads go up to 2 GB, far more than a phone recording of a meeting needs.
Which formats come back, and is it private?
The secretary can export TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training, so what members say in the meeting stays with the association.
