Quick answers
The five questions people ask before the first upload.
- What does WhipScribe do for meetings recordings?
- Upload a Zoom MP4, a Teams recording, or a Meet export. Get a timestamped transcript ready for action-item extraction.
- How much does it cost?
- Every recording starts with a free preview of its opening minutes; a pack from $4 (300 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export. Credit packs: $4 = 300 min · $18 = 3,000 min · $32 = 6,000 min; credits never expire and there is no seat fee. Workspace is $19 a month for unlimited transcription (300-hour fair-use mark; 100 GB of storage included, then $3 per extra 100 GB a month).
- How long does a transcript take?
- A one-hour recording is usually ready in about two minutes; most files finish in under a minute. Files up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file.
- Is it private?
- Yes. Transcribed on our own servers; audio is never sent to a third-party AI service. Never used to train, fine-tune or evaluate any model. Delete a recording and its transcript at any time; account deletion removes every record tied to the email.
- Which languages and files does it accept?
- 99+ languages, detected automatically; the transcript comes back in the recording's language. WhipScribe translates a finished transcript into any of 99 languages with the same timestamps, so SRT and VTT stay aligned. Input: any audio or video file (MP3, MP4, M4A, WAV, FLAC, OGG, WEBM, MOV, GSM and more), a YouTube, podcast, RSS, Google Drive, Twitch or Kick link, or a microphone recording. Export: TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT, JSON.
Built for Meetings
What matters when transcribing meetings recordings?
Works with every recording source
Zoom cloud MP4, Zoom local M4A, Teams recording, Google Meet export, or an .m4a from a phone — drop the file in, we take it from there. No integration to install.
Timestamps on mixed audio
Even on a single-track Zoom mixdown, every line comes back with its timestamp. Speakers are identified and named in the summary, key quotes and chapters; separate per-participant tracks give the cleanest audio.
Action-item-ready output
Clean timestamped TXT or DOCX. Paste into Claude or ChatGPT with "extract action items with owners and timestamps" — you have a ready summary.
Minutes, not seats
Credit packs start at $4 for 300 minutes. A team of 5 recording 2 hours/week each uses 600 minutes a week — not 5 seats. Credits never expire.
How it works
How do I transcribe a meetings recording?
Drop or paste
A file, a YouTube link, a podcast link or an RSS feed. Up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file.
Read in a minute
Timestamps, a summary and AI chat over the transcript. Click any line to hear it.
Get the brief, not just the text
The Intelligence tab reads the recording back to you: a short brief, chapters, the names and numbers that were said, and the questions it answers. Export TXT, SRT, VTT, DOCX or JSON whenever you want it elsewhere.
Intelligence
What comes back from a meetings recording?
Q3 planning — engineering and finance
Brief overview
Headcount for Q3 is settled at four, and the migration date slips to the 14th with the reason on record.
- Four hires approved, two of them backfills — finance confirms the budget line at 22:15.
- The migration moves from the 2nd to the 14th because the audit window overlaps; owner named.
- The pricing decision is explicitly deferred, not made, despite twenty minutes on it.
Questions this recording answers
- What was actually decided about pricing?
- Nothing. It was discussed from 41:00 and explicitly deferred to the next session at 52:30.
- Why did the migration slip?
- The original date collided with the audit window — stated at 34:50, with the new date agreed as the 14th.

Questions
What else do people ask about meetings transcription?
Does Whipscribe join meetings as a bot?
No. We transcribe recordings you already have. For live bot-in-the-meeting workflows, Otter or Fireflies fit. If you already record, Whipscribe is faster and cheaper.
Can I extract action items?
Yes — paste the clean transcript into Claude or ChatGPT with an action-item prompt. We do not auto-run an LLM on your transcripts; you control when and where that runs.
Does it label speakers on Zoom single-track audio?
Speakers are identified and named in the summary, key quotes and chapters; every line of the mixed audio carries its timestamp.
Record once. Read fast. Decide faster.
