Choose how to capture

ScribX can capture a meeting in four ways. Each way gives you a note with the transcript, the translation and the summary. The difference is whether something joins the call, and whether the meeting is still happening.

Which should I use?
  • You need to leave, or the meeting is in the Zoom or Teams desktop app: send a bot.
  • You are already in a Google Meet call and only need captions: capture in browser.
  • There is no link (a room, a phone call): make a voice recording.
  • The meeting is over and you have the file: upload it.

You can choose a different way for each meeting.

Send a bot​

A bot joins the meeting as a participant. It records and transcribes, then leaves when the call ends. You don't need to keep anything open. Bots can also join automatically from your calendar, on every plan.

In the web app:

Already in the meeting?

With the extension you can start from the ScribX panel inside the call. See Capture from the extension.

Capture in browser​

In a Google Meet call, the extension can show Live captions in its panel. It reads the captions that Google Meet makes. No bot joins, and it costs no credits. The extension does not record the audio.

  1. Join the Google Meet call. In the Meet toolbar, click CC to turn on captions.
  2. Open the ScribX panel. Under Capture this meeting, click Live captions, then Start live captions.

The note is saved in your library after the first caption arrives. The live summary and action items need the bot.

Voice recording​

For a meeting in a room, or anything with no link, a voice recording uses your microphone. It can also record the sound of a browser tab you share. ScribX transcribes, translates and summarizes it like any other capture.

In the sidebar, click New note, then Record on this device. On a phone, it is the middle button in Compact mode.

Upload a file​

The meeting is over, and you have the recording. For example: a Zoom cloud recording, a webinar, or an interview recorded on a phone. In the sidebar, click New note, then Upload recording. ScribX transcribes it, separates the speakers, and writes the summary and the translation.

Recording laws and your company's rules still apply, whichever way you capture. See Consent & recording.
