How to get your Zoom transcript

Zoom creates an audio transcript for cloud recordings when the audio-transcript feature is on (available on licensed plans). The transcript is a .vtt file you can open and copy.

  1. Turn on audio transcript In Zoom’s web settings, go to Recording → Cloud recording and enable “Create audio transcript”. Record the meeting to the cloud (not local).
  2. Wait for processing, then open Recordings After the meeting, Zoom processes the recording and emails you. In the Zoom web portal, open Recordings → your meeting.
  3. Open the Audio Transcript and copy it Open the Audio Transcript (.vtt), then select and copy the text — or download the file and open it.
  4. Paste it into MinutesAI Paste the text above and click “Summarize meeting” for a summary, decisions, and action items.

Only have a local recording?

Local Zoom recordings save audio and video but not always a text transcript. To get text, either turn on cloud recording with audio transcript for next time, or use Zoom’s AI Companion summary and paste that in. Any transcript text will work here.

Frequently asked questions

Does a bot join my Zoom call?

No. There is no bot and nothing to install. You paste the transcript Zoom produced from your recording.

How do I get a transcript from Zoom?

Enable “Create audio transcript” under Recording → Cloud recording in Zoom’s settings, and record to the cloud. After processing, the audio transcript appears with the recording as a .vtt file you can copy.

Why doesn’t my local recording have a transcript?

Zoom’s audio transcript is generated for cloud recordings on licensed plans. Local recordings give you audio/video; for text, use cloud recording with the transcript turned on, or AI Companion.

Can I paste a .vtt file’s contents?

Yes. Open the .vtt file, copy everything, and paste it in. Timestamps and speaker names are fine to leave in.

Is it free and is anything stored?

It’s free with no signup, and your transcript is used only to generate the notes — it is not stored on our servers.
