What it is

Cogram is a London-based AI meeting platform that targets regulated enterprises. The product is deployable on-premise or in a customer-controlled VPC, which is a meaningful differentiator versus consumer SaaS notetakers that store transcripts in their own cloud. Cogram supports Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet; produces summaries, action items, and decision logs; and offers data-loss-prevention and audit features required for banking, healthcare, and government deployments. Cogram raised a Series A in 2023 and is used inside several Tier-1 European banks.

Best for: Regulated enterprises — banks, hospitals, government — that need an AI notetaker behind their own firewall.
Watch out for: Not self-serve; sales cycle is enterprise; smaller user base than horizontal notetakers.

How much does Cogram cost?

Cogram does not publish a self-serve price — it is quoted by the vendor on contact. Expect an enterprise-style agreement rather than a card-and-go signup.

Does Cogram work on Mac, Windows and Linux?

Cogram runs in the browser, so it works on any desktop OS with a modern browser, and on phones and tablets.

How do I get started with Cogram?

There is nothing to install — Cogram is used in the browser. Create an account on the vendor's site and upload or connect your audio.

Not self-serve; sales cycle is enterprise; smaller user base than horizontal notetakers.

Who is Cogram best for?

What are the alternatives to Cogram?

There is a side-by-side page at /tools/cogram-alternatives comparing Cogram with the closest tools in the same category on price, platform and features.

Can I automate Cogram-style transcription without running it myself?

Yes. If what you want is transcripts rather than the tool itself, Whipscribe does the same job as a hosted API: submit a file or URL, poll a job id, pull the result as txt, json, srt, vtt or docx. $0.012 a minute — about $0.72 an audio hour — bought as credits that never expire. The automation recipes on this site show it wired to Drive folders, Zoom recordings, S3 buckets and no-code platforms.

How is Whipscribe different from Cogram?

Cogram is another vendor's product; Whipscribe is a per-minute transcription service. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and never used for training, and every job returns five formats plus an AI summary, quotes and topics. The first 20 minutes of any recording are transcribed free, and a pack from $6 (500 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export.

What does transcription cost if I use Whipscribe instead of Cogram?

$0.012 a minute — about $0.72 an audio hour — bought as credits that never expire. There is no subscription and no monthly minimum: a 3-hour recording is about $2.16, a thousand-hour archive is about $720 once. The first 20 minutes of any recording are transcribed free, and a pack from $6 (500 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export, so you can see what your recording holds before paying anything.

Where is the Cogram category heading?

Three things are moving across the whole speech-to-text market right now: summaries, action items and speaker insights generated on top of the transcript rather than sold separately; private, secured deployment where the audio never leaves a boundary you control; and agent access — transcription exposed as a tool that Claude, Cursor or a workflow runner can call directly. Whipscribe ships all three today: per-job insights, our own servers, and an MCP server.

Whipscribe is a hosted transcription service. If you want transcripts without running infrastructure, paste a URL or drop a file in the form below — you'll have a transcript in seconds.
