Bring your transcript in#
- Open Import meeting from the dashboard header.
- Paste the dialogue into Transcript, or select Upload transcript.
- Use a TXT, VTT, SRT, or JSON file under 2 MB.
- Add a meeting title and, if known, the original meeting date.
- Select Extract action items. The meeting opens while processing continues.
Make the source easy to understand#
Keep speaker names and chronological dialogue together. Caption timestamps help you navigate to the source later. JSON imports can contain a speaker-turn array or a dialogue/segments array.
- Keep the original wording of commitments and decisions.
- Add the meeting date when you want phrases like ‘tomorrow’ interpreted against a known date.
- Split very large files into coherent meeting sections if they exceed the upload limit.
Check permission before importing#
Only upload material you have permission to process. After import, inspect the transcript and review extracted tasks before using or sending them.
