2 to 4 h meetings · motions and votes · Swedish detected

Transcribe union meeting recordings motions, debate and decisions.

A 4-hour union annual meeting recorded in Sweden is transcribed in about 8 minutes, and twelve monthly 2-hour board meetings, 1,440 minutes, fit the $12 pack of 2,000. Swedish is detected automatically, and the brief lists the motions, the figures and the decisions so the secretary can write the protocol from text.

For the secretary

The protocol gets written from what was actually said.

Each motion gets a chapter

A union meeting runs through an agenda: reports, motions, the board's answer, debate, a vote. Chapters with timestamps follow those items, so the discussion on one motion can be read without the other three hours around it. Points of order and adjournments show up in the text where they happened.

Figures you can check

Membership numbers, budget lines, wage claims and dates come up in every report. The brief lists the numbers and dates that were spoken, which makes it quicker to check the draft protocol against the room.

Who moved what

The summary, chapters and key quotes name the members and officers who are introduced or who give their name before speaking. That is usually enough to attribute a proposal or an amendment when the protocol is checked by the two members chosen to verify it.

Recorded however the branch records

A phone at the chair's table, a hybrid meeting saved from Teams or Zoom, a Drive folder of past meetings: upload the file on the upload page, or paste the Google Drive link.

Where meeting records go wrong

A disputed vote is settled faster with a timestamp than with three memories.

✗ Protocol from handwritten notes

The secretary debates, counts and writes at once, and the wording of a motion blurs.

  • Amendments recorded loosely
  • Vote counts noted from memory
  • Long reports summarised in a line
  • A recording kept in a drawer
  • Contributions without names
  • Members who could not attend left out

✓ Protocol from the transcript

Every agenda item is findable and the text can be shared with members who missed it.

  • An annual meeting as text in about 8 minutes
  • Chapters per agenda item
  • Figures and dates listed
  • Officers named in the summary
  • Swedish detected
  • Credits that wait for the next meeting

Sample

An agenda item, as it comes back.

This sample is illustrative and written in English for this page; the branch, the motion and the members are invented. A branch meeting held in Swedish is transcribed in Swedish.

transcript · whipscribe.com/view/transcribe-union-meetings-sweden
00:52:10 We move to item seven, the motion on working hours. The board's answer is that the motion be considered answered.
00:55:31 I want to propose an amendment: that the board reports back on this before the end of the year, in writing.
01:03:48 I support the amendment. Last year the same question came up and nothing was reported.
01:09:02 Then we vote first on the amendment. Those in favour, please raise your cards. The amendment is adopted.

FAQ

Union meetings in Sweden, the common questions.

How long does a 4-hour meeting take to transcribe?

About 8 minutes; the rate is near 2 minutes per audio hour. A 2-hour board meeting is ready in roughly 4.

What does a branch pay for a year of meetings?

Twelve 2-hour board meetings are 1,440 minutes, inside the $12 pack of 2,000; add a 4-hour annual meeting and the year comes to 1,680 minutes, still inside it. A branch that only records its annual meeting fits the $6 pack of 500. Branches that record every single week can look at the $19/month Workspace instead.

Can we test it on our own recording?

Anyone new to WhipScribe gets the first 20 minutes free. A longer meeting is previewed up to that point, and a pack picks up the rest from where the preview ended, so nothing is transcribed twice.

Is a 4-hour file too big?

No. A single file may be up to 10 hours or 5 GB. Before the first pack, uploads go up to 2 GB, which a 4-hour audio recording does not approach. A stämma that runs past 10 hours, rare as that is, goes up as two files.

Does it work in Swedish?

Swedish is detected on its own, as one of 99 languages. Contributions in English inside a Swedish meeting are handled; the meeting is detected on its main language.

What do we get, and is the recording kept private?

Word and plain text for the protocol, SRT and VTT for a video, JSON for an archive, together with the brief and chapters. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training. Tell the meeting it is being recorded before you start.
