Zoom Meeting Transcription FAQ
What file format does Zoom save recordings in?
Zoom saves local recordings as MP4 (video with audio), M4A (audio only), and TXT (Zoom's own chat transcript). For transcription, upload the MP4 or M4A file. Cloud recordings can be downloaded from the Zoom portal as MP4.
Can it identify who is speaking in the Zoom recording?
Yes. Speaker diarization automatically detects and labels each unique voice in the recording. For a typical Zoom call with 2–6 participants, speakers are labeled as Speaker 1, Speaker 2, etc. throughout the transcript.
Can I transcribe a Google Meet or Teams recording?
Yes. Google Meet recordings download as WebM; Teams recordings download as MP4. Both formats are supported - upload the file directly.
Is there a time or file size limit?
A typical 1-hour Zoom meeting recorded as MP4 at standard quality is around 300–500 MB - well within the limit. The maximum file size depends on your plan.
Are my meeting recordings kept confidential?
Files are encrypted in transit and at rest. How long they are kept depends on your plan.
Can I transcribe meetings in languages other than English?
Yes. Select the meeting language before uploading. Check language support before submitting your file.
