Record a Meeting, Get the Minutes
Minutes AI turns a meeting recording into a transcript, a summary, and a list of action items and decisions. Record the call yourself, use the meeting bot, or upload a recording you already have, and read the minutes instead of writing them by hand.
ScreenApp is an independent alternative and is not affiliated with the Minutes AI app.
13,033 meetings were recorded on ScreenApp in the last 90 days. Reading the minutes afterward takes a few minutes and catches details a person taking notes while talking will miss.
What you get with every recording:
- A transcript with speaker labels, in 100+ languages
- AI minutes: a summary plus action items with an owner and deadline, and decisions listed separately
- chapters with timestamps, so a long meeting is split by topic
- Ask AI questions about the meeting and get answers that point to the moment in the recording
- Export as PDF, DOCX, TXT, SRT and VTT
- Free plan: 2 transcriptions of recordings up to 45 minutes each, with AI chat on it
Recordings are stored in your account and open on any device where you sign in.
How to Record a Meeting and Get the Minutes
- Start recording: Open ScreenApp before the call and press record, or add the meeting bot for Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams so it joins on your calendar.
- Let it run: Stop when the meeting ends. If you already have a recording, upload it instead.
- Read the minutes: The transcript and AI minutes are ready a few minutes later, with action items and decisions listed separately. Search the transcript or jump to a timestamp.
Accuracy depends on the audio. A laptop mic in a quiet room works well; a call with several people talking over each other or a bad connection will have gaps. See how we measure accuracy.

Who Uses Minutes AI
Project managers record status calls and client meetings, then pull action items with an owner and deadline straight into the project plan instead of retyping them from notes.
Sales teams record discovery calls and demos and read the minutes afterward, quoting the transcript when a prospect’s requirement comes up later in the deal.
Executives and board members attending several calls a day read the minutes instead of sitting through a recording, and search past meetings for a decision by keyword.
HR teams record interviews and performance reviews and keep a searchable, dated transcript alongside the notes they file.
Remote and distributed teams working across time zones read the minutes from a call they could not attend live, instead of waiting for someone to write up notes.
Administrative staff running board meetings and internal reviews export the minutes as a document straight after the meeting ends.
