Mesakem guides
AI meeting transcription that leads to a useful summary
Mesakem transcribes Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet meetings, recordings made with its Windows and Mac app, and audio or video files you upload. Every transcript is split by speaker, and a concise summary turns it into decisions, tasks, owners and open questions.
How does Mesakem transcribe a meeting?
Choose one of three paths: invite the visible bot to a Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet meeting; record on your computer with the Mesakem desktop app; or upload a file you already have. Each path produces a speaker-labelled transcript and a summary with decisions, tasks and owners, so nobody has to read the whole transcript to know what was decided.
Two complementary layers from one conversation
A complete record and a concise outcome are not interchangeable.
Mesakem documents a supported online meeting through its visible participant workflow, or processes an existing recording uploaded to the dashboard. The transcript preserves the conversation as the source for later review.
The summary then organizes the source by meaning rather than simply shortening every paragraph. It highlights the discussion themes, decisions, follow-up actions, owners and unresolved issues.
- Chronological source record
- Speaker context where available
- Topic and decision extraction
- Tasks and owners
- Open questions for follow-up
Transcribe Zoom, Teams, Google Meet and recorded meetings
Live meetings, the desktop app and uploaded files all lead to the same speaker-labelled transcript and summary.
Invite Mesakem to a Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet meeting from your calendar or by pasting the meeting link in the dashboard. The bot joins under a clear name, waits for the host to admit it and transcribes until the meeting ends.
No bot wanted? The Mesakem app for Windows and Mac records straight from your computer without adding a participant to the meeting. For a meeting that already happened, upload the audio or video file (up to 1000MB) and Mesakem transcribes and summarizes it like a live meeting.
- Zoom meeting transcription through the visible bot
- Microsoft Teams and Google Meet transcription, joined automatically from your calendar
- Desktop recording for Windows and Mac, with no bot in the call
- Uploaded audio and video files of past meetings
- Recorded phone calls through supported call-recording providers
Know when to open the transcript
Most readers need the summary first, but some questions require the source.
Return to the transcript to check a quote, name, number, commitment or the context around a statement. Search it for a detail that did not belong in the short summary.
Use the summary to brief an absent teammate, prepare a follow-up, review decisions or transfer next actions into the team's workflow.
- Transcript: exact wording and full context
- Transcript: details omitted from the digest
- Summary: rapid understanding
- Summary: decisions and follow-through
Built for real conversations, including mixed terminology
Business conversations often cross languages, names, acronyms and product terms within the same sentence.
Transcription is available in dozens of languages, including Hebrew and meetings that mix languages mid-sentence. The exact list appears in the language selector and depends on the recording type: bot meetings and the desktop app differ from uploaded files and phone calls. Summaries are written in Hebrew or English. Test the selected language with your team's names, accents and terminology.
No transcription system should be evaluated only by a broad accuracy claim. The useful test is whether errors affect a decision, amount, date, owner or other consequential detail.
- Test names of people, companies and products
- Review acronyms and specialized terminology
- Check figures, dates, amounts and percentages
- Confirm speaker attribution around commitments
Use the source to review high-impact details
The transcript makes the summary auditable, not automatically perfect.
Review whether the summary transformed an idea into an approved decision, closed a question that remained open, or attached an action to the wrong person. Keep missing information visibly missing.
Share only the material relevant to the recipient and consistent with workspace permissions, participant notice and your organization's retention policy.
- Compare sensitive facts with the source
- Correct speaker or ownership mistakes
- Preserve uncertainty
- Limit sharing to the intended audience
Questions and answers
Can Mesakem transcribe Zoom meetings?
Yes. Invite Mesakem to the meeting or connect your calendar. The visible bot joins, waits for the host to admit it and transcribes until the meeting ends; you then get a speaker-labelled transcript and a summary.
Which languages can Mesakem transcribe?
Dozens, including Hebrew and English, and meetings that switch languages mid-sentence. The exact list appears in the transcription language selector and depends on the recording type. Summaries are written in Hebrew or English.
Can I transcribe a meeting without a bot?
Yes. Record on your computer with the Mesakem app for Windows and Mac, or upload an existing recording to the dashboard.
Can I receive both a transcript and a summary?
Yes. The transcript serves as the detailed source, while the summary presents the context, decisions, tasks and open questions in a faster format.
Does Mesakem guarantee a perfect transcript?
No. Names, numbers, dates, terminology, speaker changes and consequential commitments should be reviewed against the source before sensitive use.
Can Mesakem process an uploaded recording?
Yes. Uploading an existing recording is a supported path and is separate from inviting the live meeting bot.
Does this mean every phone system is supported?
No. The phone-call path is based on recordings available from supported call-recording providers.
