Kan Zoom transskribere et optaget møde?

Yes. Zoom can automatically transcribe a recorded meeting—but only if the recording is saved to the Zoom cloud and you have the right account type. When enabled, Zoom generates a separate transcript file (VTT) after the meeting, which includes timestamps and can even be displayed as captions within the recorded video.

However, since Zoom transcription only supports English and cloud recordings, if you need to transcribe local audio files or require transcription in other languages, it’s better to choose third-party software like VOMO.

This guide explains the requirements and steps to enable or disable transcription at the account, group, and user levels.

Requirements for Zoom Meeting Transcription

To use Zoom’s transcription feature, you need:

• APro, Business, Education, or EnterpriseZoom account.
• Cloud recordingenabled.
• Admin or owner privilegesif turning it on for a group or account.

If you meet these conditions but don’t see the option, you may need to submit a request to Zoom Support.

Zoom’s transcription works by converting audio to text, helping users capture conversations for easier review and accessibility.

Additional Features of Zoom Transcription

Zoom’s transcription isn’t just about generating text—it includes helpful extras:

• Closed Captions: Display transcript text directly within the meeting recording.
• Search Functionality: Search for words or phrases inside the transcript to quickly locate key discussions.
• Language Options: While the default transcript is in English, you can regenerate the file in other supported languages, such as Spanish, French, German, Japanese, and more.

This makes transcripts more useful for global teams.

Why Use Zoom Transcripts?

Once your meeting is transcribed, you can:

• Quickly search for keywords instead of replaying entire meetings.
• Share the transcript instead of sending a large video file.
• Repurpose conversations into meeting notes, blog posts, or emails.
• Improve accessibility for team members who prefer reading.

For some workflows, you may also need video to text conversion, where both spoken content and visual elements of a meeting are captured for analysis.
