Transcribe an expat community meeting in Spain and send owners abroad what was decided.
A 2.5-hour owners' or residents' meeting held in English in Spain is transcribed in about 5 minutes, at roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio, with the language detected automatically. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
For community secretaries and committee members
Half the owners live in another country. The transcript tells them what the room decided.
The agenda, with timestamps
Chapters fall at each agenda item: the president's report, the administrator's accounts, the budget, the works proposals, any other business. An owner who only cares about the pool repairs opens one chapter.
Decisions and money in the brief
The brief sets out the proposals put to the meeting, the amounts in each quote, the vote results read out and the dates agreed for works, so the minutes start from a list instead of a blank page.
Hybrid meetings, one recording
Record the room on a phone, or save the call recording when owners join online, then upload it from upload page. No bot joins the call; the work happens on the recording afterwards.
Tell the room first
Announce at the start that the meeting is being recorded. The transcript is a working text to draft the minutes from, not a certified record and not legal advice on the community's rules.
Why owners feel left out
The meeting runs long, the minutes arrive weeks later, and owners abroad hear about it second-hand.
✗ Minutes by memory
A volunteer secretary takes notes while trying to follow the debate, then waits for the administrator's version.

FAQ
Expat community meetings, answered.
How long does a 2.5-hour meeting take to transcribe?
About 5 minutes, at roughly 2 minutes of processing per hour of audio. A 90-minute committee meeting is ready in about 3.
What does a year of meetings cost?
Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes. A residents' association that meets monthly for 2 hours uses about 1,440 minutes a year, which fits the $18 pack of 3,000. Credits never expire, so leftover minutes roll into next year.
Part of the meeting is in Spanish. What happens to it?
The recording is detected on its main language, English for these meetings, and short Spanish phrases sit inside the English text. If the administrator reads a long report in Spanish, check that section against the audio, or record it as a separate file so it is detected as Spanish on its own.
Some owners joined by video call. Can I still use the recording?
Yes. Upload the call's saved recording or a phone recording of the room; one file can run up to 10 hours or 5 GB, with or without a pack. A meeting streamed to YouTube can be pasted as a link.
Will the transcript say who proposed what?
The president, the administrator and owners who introduce themselves by name are identified in the summary, key quotes and chapters, which covers most of what the minutes need. The transcript lines themselves carry no names, so confirm attributions before circulating.
Is the recording kept private?
The meeting is transcribed on our own servers and is never used for training. You download TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON and share only what the committee approves.
