Transcribe strata meeting recordings AGMs and committee meetings, motion by motion.
A strata or body corporate AGM in Australia can run 2 to 4 hours, and a 4-hour recording comes back as text in about 8 minutes, with the motions, votes and figures listed and the first 20 minutes free. A 4-hour meeting uses 240 minutes, so the $6 pack of 500 minutes covers two AGMs with 20 minutes left.
For strata managers, secretaries and committee members
Minutes that match what was said, even after a long debate about the roof.
A chapter for every motion
The AGM moves through confirming the minutes, the budget, the levies, the insurance and the special motions. Each item becomes a chapter with its start time, so the minutes can be checked one motion at a time.
Votes and figures in a list
Budget amounts, levy figures, quotes read out for works and the count on each vote are gathered beside the transcript. When an owner disputes a resolution, the exact words and the minute are there.
Online, in person or both
An AGM held on a video call is usually saved as an MP4 by the host; download it and upload it on the upload page. A meeting in a common room recorded on a phone is an audio file that goes in before any pack. A 4-hour meeting saved as audio is usually a couple of hundred megabytes; video from a call is larger but still well within 5 GB.
Tell the room first
Announce at the start that the meeting is being recorded and check your scheme's by-laws and any meeting rules. This is a working transcript to help draft the minutes, not the minutes themselves.
Why strata minutes get disputed
A long AGM, a heated debate, and minutes that one owner says are wrong.
✗ Minutes from rushed notes
A strata manager may run several AGMs in a week. Notes taken during a fast debate miss who moved what, and a disputed resolution turns into an argument about memory. Owners attending by phone or video are often the hardest to hear, and their questions are the ones most likely to be missing from the minutes.
- Two to four hours of discussion
- Movers and seconders missed
- Quotes for works misremembered
- Vote counts written down wrong
- Owners dialling in, hard to hear
- Hour caps on meeting tools
✓ A transcript behind the minutes
The meeting returns as text with a chapter per motion, a brief and a list of the figures. The minutes are drafted from the brief and any challenge is answered from the transcript. Committee members who missed the meeting can read the brief and the votes, and a new committee inherits a clear record of what the last one agreed.
- Roughly 8 minutes per 4-hour AGM
- Each motion as a chapter
- Chair and manager named
- Levies and budget figures listed
- Chat that finds what was promised
- DOCX for the strata secretary's draft

FAQ
Strata meeting recordings, the common questions.
How long does a 4-hour strata AGM take?
Around 8 minutes; each hour of audio takes about 2. A 1-hour committee meeting is ready in about 2. A strata manager with several AGMs in a week gets each one back in minutes, whatever order they are uploaded in.
What does a season of AGMs cost a strata manager?
Twenty-five AGMs of 3 hours are 4,500 minutes, which fits the $24 pack of 5,000 with 500 left. A manager who records committee meetings every week can use the $19 a month Workspace instead. Pack prices are quoted in US dollars.
Is this the official minutes?
No. It is an AI working transcript with timestamps to draft and check the minutes from. The minutes your scheme adopts remain the record.
The video of our online AGM is large. Will it upload?
Files up to 2 GB go in before the first pack, and up to 5 GB or 10 hours after it. If the upload refuses the meeting file, convert it to MP3 first. Any file over 2 GB starts once a pack is on the scheme's account.
Several owners speak another language. Is that handled?
Owners' languages are detected automatically, from 99 supported. A meeting that switches between English and another language is detected on its main language and the switches are handled.
What do we download, and who sees the recording?
TXT and DOCX for the minutes, captions in SRT or VTT, and JSON for records software. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training, and the meeting is visible only in the account that uploaded it.
