Chime meetings, kept as text

AWS announced the end of Amazon Chime. The meetings in those files still matter.

Files that outlived the app

AWS announced the end of Amazon Chime, so the long engineering reviews and vendor calls worth keeping are the files someone downloaded. Turning them into text means nobody has to keep a video player around to find one decision.

Two Chime hours, four minutes of processing

The speed is about 2 minutes for each hour of meeting audio. A 3-hour architecture review is ready in about 6 minutes, and you can close the tab while it works.

Drop the file on {upload_page}

A saved Chime recording is usually an MP4. Before the first pack, uploads up to 2 GB go straight in; a larger file starts once a pack is on the account. If a team archive is on Google Drive, paste the share link instead of downloading.

Search across the archive

Each recording gets a brief with takeaways, chapters with timestamps and a chat over the text. Ask which meeting agreed the migration date and the answer comes back with the minute it was said.

Before and after

An archive of Chime videos is a pile of hours nobody will rewatch.

✗ Video files in a shared folder

Names like meeting_0412.mp4, no notes, and the person who ran the call has moved teams.

Scrubbing through two hours for one number
Nothing showing which team signed off on the change
Notes written days later from memory
A tool that needs a live bot in a call that no longer exists
Per-month plans for a one-off archive job
Files too big for audio-only upload limits

✓ Chime meetings you can search

Each saved meeting becomes a document with its decisions pulled to the top.

01:28:04 So the cutover moves to the second weekend of the month, and we keep the old cluster warm for two weeks after.

01:28:31 Two weeks is fine for reads. For writes I would want a freeze on the Friday before.

01:29:02 Agreed. Put the freeze in the plan and send it to the vendor before Thursday.

01:29:40 We can have someone on call that weekend if you send the window by Wednesday.

FAQ

Amazon Chime recordings, answered.

How long does a Chime recording take?

About 2 minutes per hour of audio, so a 2-hour meeting is ready in about 4 minutes and a 5-hour workshop in about 10. The finished text waits in your Library if you leave.

What does a 2-hour Chime meeting cost?

It uses 120 minutes. A first-time visitor gets the first 20 minutes free; the $6 pack of 500 minutes covers the rest and leaves at least 380, enough for three more meetings of the same length. An archive of 40 such meetings is 4,800 minutes, which fits the $24 pack of 5,000.

How big can the file be, and do I need to split it?

One file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB, whichever comes first, so a full-day session usually goes in whole. Only a recording longer than 10 hours needs to become two files.

Do you connect to my Chime account?

No. There is no integration and no bot; WhipScribe works on the recording file after the meeting. Download or locate the saved file, then upload it here.

Our meetings mixed English and Japanese. Will that work?

99 languages are detected automatically, Japanese, Korean, Spanish and Portuguese among them. A recording that switches language is detected on its main language, so a meeting held mostly in one language gives the cleanest result.

Which exports, and what happens to the file?

One upload gives TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.

Bring the saved Chime meetings. Two hours of meeting, about four minutes of waiting.
