What to know
For Zoom/Teams/Meet/Webex use the recording file or its authorized integration.
LongScribe signed-in Free: 60 minutes across 20 recordings per month. Premium: $4.99/month / 5,000 minutes, Premium Pro: $14.99/month / 20,000 minutes. Per-job duration, file size and account restrictions still apply. The anonymous demo is a separate limited preview.
Automated transcripts need review against the source. No comparative accuracy advantage is claimed.
Start with a recording, not a live call
LongScribe does not join or capture an active meeting. Download your authorized saved meeting audio/video and upload it, or use an enabled connected cloud or recording integration.
Choose the correct source
Zoom cloud recordings have a dedicated workflow. Microsoft Teams recordings are commonly stored in OneDrive or SharePoint; Google Meet recordings can be stored in Google Drive. Webex recordings may be submitted through supported paths. Access permissions are required.
Find decisions without inventing them
A timestamped transcript makes it easier to locate quotes and search for a decision. AI summaries, chapters and speaker labels depend on job features and plan settings; verify action items against the actual recording before sharing them.
Transcribe and export the recording
Upload a file using the dedicated audio/file tool or access the connected source. Eligible completed jobs support TXT, DOCX, SRT and JSON; larger files require the eligible paid upload path.
What is the best transcription software for recorded meetings?
For recordings you already have, prioritize actual file/cloud compatibility, timestamps, reviewability and exports. Choose a live meeting assistant instead if you need real-time capture or automatic participation during the call.
Upload size limits by plan
Direct uploads are capped at 90 MB on the Free plan; uploads can be up to 1 GB on Premium (including Premium Pro) via chunked upload. Supported public URLs are fetched server-side and do not use the browser direct-upload limit.
Need the meeting recorded first?
LongScribe starts once you already have a saved recording — it doesn't join calls live. If you need something to actually sit in on the meeting and record it, ScreenApp is a solid option; drop the file it saves into LongScribe afterward for a searchable, timestamped transcript.
