## From Drive to transcript in three steps

No Workspace admin, no edition upgrade, no add-ons.

### 1. Download the recording

Meet saves recordings to the organizer's Google Drive ("Meet Recordings" folder) as MP4. Download it - or use any screen recording of the call.

### 2. Transcribe with speakers

The audio track is extracted in your browser - the video itself never uploads. Speaker diarization labels each voice; rename labels to real names after.

### 3. Summarize & share

An AI summary pulls out decisions and action items. Share the transcript by link or export TXT, SRT or VTT.

## When Meet's own tools fall short

Recording and transcripts in Meet depend on your Workspace edition and admin settings.

### Any plan, any file

Speecho transcribes the file itself - recordings someone shared with you, old meetings, screen recordings from a free account.

### Meetings in any language

99 languages with automatic detection - and translation of the finished transcript for colleagues who weren't on the call.

### Pay per meeting

A one-hour call costs $0.83–$1.25. No per-seat licences, no subscription - credits never expire.

## Pay only for what you use

Top up once. Credits never expire. No subscription. One wallet for transcription, scans and captions.

New accounts get 15 free minutes to try - credits work for scans and captions too.

## Frequently asked questions

Not covered here? [Ask us](https://speecho.app/contact/), we usually reply within a business day.

**How do I transcribe a Google Meet recording?**

Download the recording from Google Drive (Meet saves it to the organizer's "Meet Recordings" folder as MP4), upload it to Speecho, and you get a transcript with speaker labels, timestamps and an optional AI summary in minutes.

**My Google Meet plan can't record. What can I do?**

Record your screen during the call with any screen recorder (QuickTime, Xbox Game Bar, OBS) and upload that file instead - Speecho extracts the audio in your browser and transcribes it the same way.

**Do I need a Google Workspace subscription?**

No. Speecho transcribes the recording file itself, so it works regardless of your Google plan or admin settings - including files shared with you by someone else.

**Will the transcript show who said what?**

Yes - enable speaker diarization and each line is labeled by speaker. You can rename "Speaker 1" to real names afterwards.

**Does the whole video get uploaded?**

No. The audio track is extracted locally in your browser before upload, so even a long 1080p recording transfers as a small audio file. The video never leaves your computer.

**The recording came out in several parts. Can I join them?**

Yes. A meeting recorded in two goes, or a recording restarted after a dropped connection, leaves two files. Transcribe each part, select them in your history and press Merge: one transcript, timestamps running on from part to part, speakers numbered across the parts so you rename them once. It is free, and the original transcripts stay.

## The meeting, in writing.

Transcript, speakers, summary - minutes after the call ends.
