MeetNotes

MeetNotes records meetings and creates speaker-labelled transcripts and minutes with summaries, decisions, and action items. You can use a phone to record an in-person meeting, or have its notetaker join Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams through a meeting link or calendar invite. Mac and Windows apps capture computer playback and microphone audio for those services, as well as Webex and WhatsApp calls. The product says minutes can be written in any of 110 languages and transcription can handle language changes mid-sentence. Minutes can be edited and shared as PDF or Word files, including through WhatsApp or email; web access lets users read, search, and export meetings. Teams share a pool of recording minutes, but a meeting remains private to its recorder until shared. The free plan includes 100 minutes once. Minute packs start at ₹99 a month for 30 minutes, bought once, with minutes that never expire. MeetNotes says recordings are encrypted in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256; audio and transcript content is sent to third-party AI providers solely to produce transcripts and minutes.

MeetNotes combines meeting capture with transcripts and editable minutes for online and in-person discussions. Consider its one-time free allowance and stated AI processing practices when deciding whether it fits your workflow.

It suits founders, managers, consultants, chartered accountants, site and project teams, and housing society committees who need meeting transcripts and minutes. It also supports phone recording for in-person conversations and integrations with common meeting services.

MeetNotes is a meeting capture and minutes tool for teams and professionals who need records of both in-person and online discussions. It suits small and mid-size businesses, consultants, and project teams. Broad capture options and minutes you can edit and share make it versatile, while the free allowance is limited to one 100-minute purchase.

Overview

MeetNotes turns recorded conversations into speaker-labelled transcripts and minutes with summaries, decisions, and action items. You can record a room discussion with a phone, invite its notetaker to supported video calls, or use the desktop apps to capture computer playback and microphone audio. That range suits people who move between meeting formats; anyone looking only for a lightweight note pad may find the recording and transcript workflow more than they need.

The web account provides a way to read, search, and export meetings from another device. Minutes can be edited and shared as PDF or Word files, including through WhatsApp and email. MeetNotes says its minutes support 110 languages and transcription can handle language changes mid-sentence, a useful fit for multilingual discussions.

Key features

Capture across meeting types

For in-person meetings, a phone is enough to record without buying separate hardware. The online notetaker joins Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams from a meeting link or calendar invitation. On Mac and Windows, the desktop apps capture system playback and microphone audio for services including Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Webex, and WhatsApp calls. This flexibility is a strong reason to consider MeetNotes if a workday spans rooms and several call services.

Minutes, exports, and teamwork

Speaker labels help distinguish who said what, while summaries, decisions, and action items turn a transcript into a more usable record. Teams share a pool of recording minutes, but each meeting stays private to its recorder until that person shares it. That default gives the recorder control over distribution; teams that expect automatic visibility across all meetings should account for the explicit sharing step.

The Partner API accepts audio files up to 300 MB and returns transcripts and minutes in PDF, Word, or Markdown. It gives partners a defined route to process audio, though the upload limit matters for longer or larger recordings.

Privacy and support

MeetNotes says recordings are encrypted in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256. Audio and transcript content goes to third-party AI providers solely to create transcripts and minutes. The company says it does not currently hold formal certifications such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001, a material consideration for organizations with formal vendor-security requirements. Support is available by email, with an expected reply within a day.

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing and includes a one-time 100 minutes, a speaker-labelled transcript, PDF and Word minutes, 100+ languages, Self mode, and web access. With no free trial and a single lifetime allowance, it is best treated as a way to assess the workflow, not an ongoing free tier for regular meetings.

Minute packs are bought once and never expire: 30 minutes costs ₹99 a month, 100 minutes costs ₹299 a month, 500 minutes costs ₹1,450 a month, 2,000 minutes costs ₹4,999 a month, and 25,000 minutes costs ₹55,900 a month. Despite the displayed monthly term, each pack is described as a one-time purchase with non-expiring minutes. The larger packs suit predictable high-volume use; smaller packs let occasional users add capacity without a recurring allowance. A separate Minute packs option is ₹5,955,900, paid once for 15 to 25,000 minutes, with applicable taxes included.

Pro provides 1,000 minutes per month and Max provides 2,000 minutes per month, each with monthly and yearly options and custom pricing. Pro's allowance resets each billing period, so it fits recurring use better than packs for users who need a steady monthly quota; Max doubles that stated monthly allowance. The cheaper Free plan and small packs provide less capacity, while the packs do not expire. The Pro and Max prices are shown in the app and vary by country.

Platforms

MeetNotes is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows, with an API for partner integrations. The mobile apps support phone-based in-person recording, web access supports reading, searching, and exporting, and desktop capture is available on Mac and Windows.

Who it's for

MeetNotes is aimed at founders and managers in small and mid-size businesses, consultants, chartered accountants, site and project teams, and housing society committees. It is particularly well matched to people who need meeting records across in-person and online settings, want editable documents to share, or work across languages. Organizations requiring formal security certifications should look elsewhere unless MeetNotes' stated security posture meets their requirements.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Phone-based room recording avoids dedicated hardware, and online and desktop capture cover several common meeting services.

• Pros: Minute packs never expire, which can suit occasional users who do not need a monthly quota.
• Cons: The free plan is limited to a one-time 100 minutes, so recurring use requires a purchase.
• Cons: Meetings remain private until the recorder shares them, adding a step for teams that need shared records.
• Cons: The company says it lacks formal certifications such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001, which may rule it out for some security-conscious organizations.

Verdict
