What You Get
More than just recording
Invisible recording
No one in the call knows you are recording. No bot joins, no popup appears, no recording badge shows up.
AI transcription
Automatic speech-to-text powered by on-device and cloud AI models. Supports 90+ languages with speaker identification.
AI summaries
Get action items, decisions, and key points extracted automatically after every call. Never write meeting notes again.
Flashback
Forgot to hit record? Flashback saves the last 2 minutes of audio retroactively. Capture what you missed.
Local-first
Recordings stay on your device by default. No cloud upload, no third-party access, no data leaving your machine.

Three ways to do this
Three ways to transcribe a recording you already have
Upload it to the SeaMeet transcriber
Drop an MP3, M4A, WAV, FLAC, OGG, AAC or WebM file on app.seameet.ai. It transcribes in the background with speaker labels, then gets the AI summary anything live-recorded would.
Best for: The standard case: you have the file, you need the text.
See how →Record live next time
If the conversation hasn't happened yet, skip the round-trip — the browser recorder or desktop app captures it with the same transcript, plus Flashback for late starts.
Best for: Recurring calls and interviews still to come.
See how →Phone memos and app exports
Voice memos, voice notes saved as audio files, field-recorder files — if it can be exported or downloaded in one of the formats above, it can be dropped in.
Best for: Mobile capture that happened away from a laptop.
Method 2 · SeaMeet web app
How to transcribe an audio file you already have
Runs in Chrome, Edge, or Safari on desktop. Drop in an MP3, M4A, WAV, FLAC, OGG, AAC or WebM file — up to 512 MB and 5 hours — and read the transcript with speaker labels. Free accounts read the first 15 minutes of each file; Sync Pro imports 50 hours a month.
- 01
Save the file where you can find it
Export from the recorder app, or download it from wherever the recording lives: voice-memo apps, dictaphones, a call recording you saved as audio.
- 02
Open the transcriber on app.seameet.ai and drop the file in
Sign in and drop the file on the page. MP3, M4A, WAV, FLAC, OGG, AAC or WebM are accepted, up to 512 MB and 5 hours per file.
- 03
Let it transcribe in the background
Long files queue and process without you babysitting the tab. Hour-long interviews and multi-hour backlogs are normal, not edge cases.
- 04
Check language and speakers
Auto-detect covers most files including mixed-language ones; declare the language for monolingual audio for a small accuracy gain. Speaker labels arrive best-effort and can be renamed afterwards.
- 05
Read, search, and share
The transcript, speaker labels, and AI summary join your library — searchable alongside every meeting you've recorded, with a share link if someone else needs it.

Why SeaMeet
Why run old recordings through SeaMeet
-
The same treatment as live meetings
Imported files get the full pipeline — transcript, speakers, summary, search, Meeting Memory — not a stripped-down "file mode". A saved call is indistinguishable from a live one in your library.
-
Backlog at volume
Sync Pro imports up to 50 hours a month, enough to chew through archived interviews and a quarter of un-transcribed team calls without rationing.
-
Many languages, mixed included
Old interviews in Mandarin, Arabic voice memos, a French-Japanese research call — pick the language, or let auto-detect handle code-switching that trips up single-language tools.
-
Your files stay yours
Upload is for transcription and the results live in your library under your account — copy the transcript, delete the file, move on. No lock-in gymnastics.

Why SeaMeet?
Not every recording happens live. When you already have the audio — a saved call, a voice memo, an interview from a dedicated recorder — SeaMeet transcribes it and gives it the same transcript, speakers and AI summary as anything you record in the app.
