Turn A Sales Call Recording Into Notes
Hand your employee a recorded sales call and ask it to transcribe the conversation, then summarize the key objections and next steps without you re-listening to the whole thing.
Audio Transcriber
Give any AI employee an uploaded recording and get a saved written transcript back in the same conversation. It handles common audio and video files, including voice memos, call recordings, webinars, and video walkthroughs.
Attach a recording in chat and ask your employee to transcribe it. The employee checks the length and credit balance before processing it, then saves the written result to Drive as a normal document you can reopen or use in follow-up work.
This is for recordings you already have. Meeting Attender is the separate tool for joining a live Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams call and taking notes while it happens.
Use it when the important detail is inside a recording instead of a document: a customer call, voice memo, webinar, interview, or screen-share walkthrough. The saved text makes the recording easier to search, quote, summarize, and turn into clear next steps without replaying the whole file whenever you need it. It is ready for your next question.
Start with the recording and the question the team needs answered. For a sales call, that might be the objection that stopped the deal and the promised follow-up. For a training session, it might be the steps a new teammate needs to repeat. The employee first creates the transcript, then can turn that source into a summary, action list, or focused answer. It cannot join a live call, fetch a recording from a link, or identify speakers by name on its own, so upload the file you are authorized to use and request speaker labels only when numbered labels are enough.
Built For Recordings You Already Have
Audio Transcriber works with recordings you upload: a sales call, a voice memo, a webinar, or a video walkthrough. It accepts common MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, MP4, MOV, and WebM files up to 72 MB and four hours long.
Instead of replaying a long recording to find one detail, hand it to an employee and work from its saved written transcript.
How This Differs From Meeting Notes
Meeting Attender joins a live Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams call as a named participant and takes notes while the call happens.
Audio Transcriber is for a file you already have. It does not join calls or download recordings from web, social, or meeting links.
Know the Cost Before Processing
The employee checks the recording length and available credits before it starts. A normal transcript uses about 8 credits per minute, so the cost is clear before the file leaves your workspace for transcription.
Ask for speaker labels when a conversation needs its voices separated. That adds about 2 credits per minute and marks the transcript as Speaker 0, Speaker 1, and so on, without guessing anyone's name.
Keep Recordings in Your Workspace
The original recording remains a private workspace upload. The employee saves the finished transcript as a normal Drive document, so it fits the same sharing and follow-up work already used for the rest of your files.
Give the employee a language when the recording is not in English. After the transcript is saved, ask for a summary, action list, customer follow-up, or answers to a specific question from the recording.
How It Works
Attach a recording, get back a saved transcript
Upload the audio or video directly in chat and ask for a transcript. Choose speaker labels when you need a conversation separated into Speaker 0, Speaker 1, and so on.
The employee saves the transcript to Drive, then can summarize it, extract actions, or answer questions about what was said.
Use Cases
Search A Voice Memo Later
Leave yourself a voice memo with an idea or a set of instructions, then have an employee transcribe it and pull the specific detail you need instead of playing the file back from the start.
Make A Training Video Text-Searchable
Turn an internal training video or a webinar recording into a written transcript so an employee can answer questions about its content directly, instead of someone scrubbing through the video looking for a specific moment.
Comparison
| Before | After |
|---|---|
| Replaying a long recording to find one decision, objection, or instruction leaves the useful detail trapped in the file. | Upload the recording once and work from its saved transcript, then ask an employee for the summary, action list, or exact detail you need. |
FAQ
Can I use Audio Transcriber right now?
Yes. Audio Transcriber is available to every employee as a Utility tool. Attach an audio or video file in chat and ask for a transcript.
What file types will it support?
Common audio and video formats: MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, MP4, MOV, and WebM. Files can be up to 72 MB and four hours long.
How is this different from the meeting attender?
Meeting Attender joins a live call. Audio Transcriber processes an audio or video file you attach after it was recorded.
Will the transcript be searchable by my employees?
Yes. The result is saved as a Drive document and your employee can use it in later work, including summaries and action lists.
Can I transcribe a YouTube or social link?
Not in this release. Upload the recording itself to your workspace, then ask for a transcript. This keeps the source clear, respects platform permissions, and prevents an employee from downloading a video you did not provide.

More in Capabilities
- Web Search: Every AI employee can search the live internet for current information and answer with sources, no setup required. It runs automatically whenever the employee needs something it does not already know, such as a competitor update, a price, or a recent news item. Results are cited titles, snippets, and URLs, synthesized into a plain answer inside the chat.
- Web Scraping: Give any employee a URL and they read the full page: article, blog post, documentation, competitor page, pricing table, whatever is public. They return clean text with the ads, navigation, and boilerplate stripped out, ready to summarize, compare, or act on. It is enabled for every employee at hire, costs no credits, and works on JavaScript-heavy pages without any setup on your side.
- Image Generation: Ask any employee to create an image and it builds a detailed prompt, generates it with an OpenAI image model, and saves the result to Drive with a persistent link. Use it for logos, social graphics, illustrations, diagrams, or landing page visuals, described in plain language. No setup required: every employee can generate images at hire, with a Model, Quality, and Shape default you can adjust per tool.
- Code Interpreter: Code Interpreter is on our roadmap: a sandboxed Python environment your AI employee will use to run scripts, crunch numbers, and transform data files on request. Instead of describing a calculation in words, you'll be able to ask for the actual computation and get back a checked result, not a guess. It is not available yet.
- Video: Hand your employee a prompt and get back a short, ready-to-post video clip, filed straight into your Drive. Built for social cuts, ad concepts, and quick product demos. Editing your own footage is coming next.
- AI Employee B2B Marketplace: A network of real, vetted businesses living inside Sistava. Ask any AI employee to find a vendor, a partner, or a service provider, and it checks this network first, before it ever touches the open internet. Get listed yourself and the same network works the other way: visitors, customers, and other businesses' AI employees can discover and recommend you.
- Document Editor: Ask an employee for a spreadsheet, a report, a slide deck, or a data export, and get back a real .xlsx, .docx, .pptx, .csv, or .pdf file, not a wall of text pasted into chat. It can also revise a file you already gave it through the same chat-and-Drive workflow, keeping the work you did not ask to change intact whenever the format supports it. For PowerPoint, it can turn a brief into native slides with layouts, charts, images, shapes, tables, and speaker notes. PDFs can be polished reports or colorful, fully designed pages with professional print typography. Included with every employee on every plan, nothing extra to connect or unlock.
- Premium Prospect Database: Find real people to sell to and reveal their verified work email and phone, pulled from a premium database of over a billion professionals worldwide. Filter by role, seniority, industry, company size, and location to build a targeted list, then have your employee save the best prospects straight into your CRM. Free accounts get a small one-time allowance, then can continue with paid access or open-web research.
- Presentation Builder: A dedicated tool for turning your content into a finished slide deck: give an employee a report, a set of notes, or a topic, and it plans the slide structure, writes the talking points, and lays out a real .pptx file you can open in PowerPoint or Google Slides.
- Send an Employee to Your Meeting: Share a Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams link and your employee joins the call as a named participant. It listens, keeps a full speaker-tagged transcript, and speaks up out loud when you address it by name. When the call ends, the transcript lands in Drive and a summary shows up in chat.
- Get a Live Meeting Transcript: Your AI employee joins a Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams call and captures a full transcript as people speak, tagged by speaker and timestamped. Ask for it mid-call, ask for it after, or just ask what someone said ten minutes ago. When the meeting ends the transcript is saved to your employee's Drive automatically.
- Meeting Summary: When a meeting your employee attended ends, it writes a summary and drops it in chat automatically: what got decided, who owns what, and the action items. No need to ask for a recap, it is already waiting when you check in.
