Get an AI Summary of a Google Meet Recording
This tool takes a Google Meet recording, whether you upload the file or paste a link to it, and turns it into a transcript with an AI summary, decisions, and action items. No bot joins a live call: you upload or import the recording after the meeting ends, and the summary is ready a few minutes later.
13,100 meetings were recorded on ScreenApp in the last 90 days. That makes it a fit for meetings that already happened, meetings a bot never joined, or calls where you would rather not have a bot show up as a participant.
What you get with every recording:
- A transcript with speaker identification
- AI notes: action items with an owner and deadline, and decisions listed separately
- chapters with timestamps, so you can jump to the part of the meeting you need
- AI chat with any recording, so you can ask a question instead of re-reading the transcript
- Export as PDF, DOCX, TXT, SRT and VTT
- Import from a link or upload the file directly, in 100+ languages
- Free plan: 2 transcriptions of recordings up to 45 minutes each
If you want a bot to join and record Google Meet calls automatically from your calendar, that is a separate tool: see the Google Meet bot.
How to Summarize a Google Meet Recording
- Upload the recording or paste the link: Upload the MP4 or WebM file Google Meet saved, or paste a link if the recording is already hosted somewhere.
- Let it process: The tool transcribes the audio, identifies speakers, and reads the transcript to pull out the summary, decisions, and action items.
- Read and share: Search the transcript, jump to a chapter, or ask a question about the meeting. Export the summary or share it with a link.
Accuracy depends on the recording’s audio. A clear one-on-one call transcribes better than a large call with several people talking over each other. See how we measure accuracy.

Who Uses a Google Meet AI Summary Tool
Professionals with meeting overload upload the day’s recordings and read the summaries instead of rewatching each one, catching decisions and action items in minutes rather than hours.
Team leaders and managers keep a record of project discussions and status updates without sitting through the recording again, and share the summary with stakeholders who could not attend.
Sales and client success teams upload client calls and demos to capture requirements, objections, and next steps, building a searchable history of what was discussed and agreed.
Students and educators upload recorded classes and study sessions to get a transcript and notes they can search, without rewatching the whole session.
Remote and distributed teams upload meetings colleagues could not attend live, so async reviewers get a written summary instead of scheduling a recap call.
