For a meeting happening now, open live transcription, choose the language and audio source, then press Start transcription. For a call in a browser tab, use desktop Chrome or Edge and include the tab's audio when you share it. If you already have an audio or video file, use recording transcription. If you have written notes or a transcript, use the meeting summary generator. None of these requires an account.

No account is needed to transcribe a meeting or generate a brief. If you want the brief emailed to you, confirm your address with a 6-digit code and leave automatic email enabled. That confirmation is separate from the optional Aria sign-in, which lets you use your Aria conversations and memories on another device. Saved live meetings stay in the browser where you captured them; confirming an email does not sync that history.

Yes — free, with no paid tier to upgrade to. There is no trial and no feature held back behind a plan. Online transcription has file/session limits and shared daily capacity; AI summaries, meeting briefs and Aria also have daily limits. It is made by KCF LLC, Newport Beach, California.

For meeting-tab capture, use desktop Chrome or Edge with the meeting in that browser and share its tab audio. Other capture sources depend on your browser and operating system. Live meetings offer Online when capacity is available: with your processing choice, short audio batches go to Groq without a browser model download. The first batch covers about five seconds, then about twenty seconds at a time; network and processing time are additional. On this device recognition is a separate option and may need a language or model download first. Existing recordings can use Online at /transcribe: it sends audio to the provider named before upload (Cloudflare Workers AI or Groq) and needs an internet connection, with formats, languages and limits shown before upload. Local recording transcription depends on device memory and codec support.

There is no app-store download. The site is built to work on a phone browser, and you can add it to your home screen from your browser's share menu if you want it to open like an app.

Open live transcription in desktop Chrome or Edge. Choose Tab in this browser, press Start transcription, select the meeting tab and turn on its audio-sharing checkbox. Meetings Brief combines that audio with your microphone. If the call is in another browser or app, choose Another browser or app and follow the sharing instructions. If the picker offers no sound option, move the meeting to a tab in the same browser or transcribe a recording afterwards. Tell the participants you are taking notes; no bot joins the call.

Online live uses Groq when offered, with the first five seconds followed by about twenty seconds per batch, plus network and processing time. On this device is a separate local option. Supported Chrome speech recognition can show words as people speak; the local Whisper fallback adds text in roughly 30-second batches and may download a model first. Timing varies with the source and device. Online transcription without a device-model download is available for existing recordings at recording transcription, subject to shared capacity. Review important words in either result.

Confirm your email address with a 6-digit code and keep automatic email enabled. When you stop a meeting with more than about 150 words, Meetings Brief generates the summary, decisions and action items, then emails the brief with the full transcript attached as a text file. If capture may be incomplete, automatic email pauses so you can review it first. It goes to your confirmed address, not automatically to the other participants. AI briefs have daily limits. The page also shows the brief and any delivery error, so you can download it if email fails.

Successful saves appear in this browser on this device. Clearing browser data removes them. If saving fails, keep the page open and use retry or download. Transcript text is sent to an online AI service for an AI brief; its temporary server copy is removed after a successful local-save acknowledgement, or becomes eligible for daily cleanup after one day, normally within two days. For live meetings, On this device keeps recognition audio local; Online sends short audio batches to Groq after the processing choice. Confirmed online words are saved before their service result is acknowledged. Existing recordings processed Online send audio to the provider named before upload (Cloudflare Workers AI or Groq); their file-job content has its own 24-hour access expiry and scheduled cleanup described in the Privacy Policy.

A phone browser cannot capture a call playing in another app on that same phone. Use the phone microphone for an in-person conversation, keeping the screen on and this page in front. For both sides of an online call, use desktop Chrome or Edge with shared tab audio, or import a recording you are allowed to use.

Tap the mic button on the Home tab and speak. Your browser converts speech to text using the Web Speech API built into it. Only the resulting text is saved — there is no audio file to store, upload or delete.

The language picker beside the mic covers English, Hindi, Hinglish, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese and Japanese. Set it before you start speaking: recognition accuracy drops sharply if the selected language does not match what is being said.

Dictation in the notes app saves text, not an audio file. The browser may send speech to its own recognition service, such as Google in Chrome. Live meeting notes offer separate On this device recognition, which keeps recognition audio local, and Online processing by Groq when offered and chosen. Existing recordings at recording transcription offer Online, which sends audio to the provider named before upload (Cloudflare Workers AI or Groq), or On this device for local recognition. Clips on a notebook meeting’s Audio tab are stored in that browser. These features have different data flows; read the Privacy Policy before using sensitive material.

Yes, at recording transcription. Choose Online to upload the original recording to private Supabase storage for the speech-recognition provider named before upload (Cloudflare Workers AI or Groq), without a model download, or On this device to use a downloaded browser model without uploading audio. When the long-recording route is offered, Online accepts up to 240 MiB and two hours, processes bounded sections, and saves confirmed progress. Its notice names Groq as primary and Cloudflare as a backup only for a refusal before submission. Shared free capacity can pause processing; Resume continues the same saved job when capacity returns. Other routes show their own smaller limits before upload. Local processing depends on memory and codecs. Requesting an AI brief sends transcript text to an online AI service separately.

Yes, in a phone browser that supports speech recognition. Keep the screen on and the tab in front: a web page may stop listening when the phone locks or the tab is hidden. It is a quick way to capture a recap in the two minutes after a meeting ends — while you still remember what was actually agreed.

Type what you are looking for in your own words. Your search and your most recent quick notes and meeting notes, about 8,000 characters in all, go to the AI, which picks the notes that match the meaning rather than the exact words: searching "budget concerns" can find a note that says "costs". Notes older than that are not searched, so it finds recent notes, not your whole history.

As you type, it quietly checks your six most recent notes and surfaces a related one. No tagging, no manual linking and no folder structure to maintain — the connection is found when it is useful rather than filed in advance.

Yes. Your notes are not sold and not used to train AI models. They are kept in your browser on your device. Note text is sent to an online AI service when you use an AI feature, and also automatically: on the Home screen to suggest related notes and pull out action items, and in a meeting, where its notes are summarized automatically. A note saved on the Home screen in which action items are found is stored with those tasks in our database. The Privacy Policy names each company involved and sets out what is stored and why.

Any meeting brief can be exported as a PDF from the meeting view. Notes can be deleted individually, and deletion removes the note from your browser rather than hiding it. Deleting a meeting removes its notes, agenda and recordings from this browser, including any recording in progress. If cleanup cannot finish, the app shows Retry deletion. Downloaded or shared copies and cloud tasks are unaffected. A copy of a Home-screen note's text kept with its action items stays in our database; to have it removed, add an email address in the app if you have not already, then email us from that address and we will delete your workspace.

Each meeting has eight tabs. The AI ones are Summary in six styles, Actions (action items with owners and deadlines), Memory (recurring topics and unresolved threads in the notes of a few recent meetings) and Catch Up (a pre-meeting briefing). Agenda, Notes, Audio and Timeline are where you plan, write, record and look back across meetings.

When you press Recall Memory, it sends this meeting's notes and the notes of your most recent other meetings, about 8,000 characters in all, to the AI. It lists what keeps coming up, what was never resolved, what changed since last time and which commitments are still open. It reads only those recent notes, so older meetings are left out.

Generate a Summary, then click Share link. The brief is carried inside the link, which is copied to your clipboard; nothing is stored on a server, so anyone with the link can read it, without signing in.

In the Meetings tab, select a meeting and click Focus Mode for a fullscreen view with your agenda, a live timer and the note area — and nothing else on screen.

Yes. Paste a transcript or rough notes into the meeting summary generator, or drop a .vtt, .srt or .txt transcript file. Long transcripts, up to 400,000 characters, are read in sections. It returns a summary with decisions, action items with owners and next steps. No account is required, and this tool does not email the result. Copy or download it before leaving the page. Long-input results are held temporarily in private server storage. They become eligible for daily cleanup after one day, normally completing within two days; outages can delay removal.

Aria is an AI assistant that keeps context between conversations. She picks out durable facts from what you tell her and uses the 30 saved most recently in later conversations, so you are not re-explaining your team, your projects and your priorities each time.

Recap in Aria's sidebar types a recap request into the message box. Aria answers from the last 20 messages of the conversation you have open and the 30 facts she saved most recently; she cannot see your other conversations or your notes, or your meetings unless you attach one saved on this device by live transcription.

After each message you send, she saves any durable facts in it, such as people, projects, preferences and goals. Each reply uses the 30 facts saved most recently, so older facts stop reaching her once newer ones are saved. Your facts are listed at /aria/memory, newest first, and can be deleted individually, so the memory is something you can inspect and correct rather than a black box.

Yes — the mic icon in the chat input transcribes what you say into the message box, which you can edit before sending.
