Transcription must be enabled

Bots do not generate transcripts by default.

To generate a transcript, a bot must be configured to use a transcription method.

Transcription Methods

There are three methods bots can use to generate transcriptions:

1. Recall.ai Transcription: Transcription directly through Recall
2. AI Transcription: Through one of our transcription partners
3. Meeting Caption Transcription: Using native meeting platform captions

Recall can return transcripts in the same API response format no matter which of these you use, so feel free to test these out.

Which should I use?

This is something that will depend on your use-case. Our recommendation is:

• You want an easy way to get started: Use Recall.ai Transcription.
• You have a specific use case that the above doesn't cover: explore our supported AI Transcription partners.
• You want to minimize costs at the expense of quality: Meeting Caption Transcription is free.
