​
Recording interface

Small interface with recording indicator, live transcription, and basic controls. Stays out of your way during presentations and won’t show up when you’re sharing your screen.

​
During your meeting

Once recording starts, you’ll see a small popup in the upper right corner. Click the arrow button to expand it and go to the Transcript tab to see live conversation text. What you get in real-time:
  • Live translation - Turn this on to translate conversations as they happen
  • Timeline summary - Click “Show timeline” to see summarized discussion points so far
Real-time transcription accuracy depends on your environment, network, and audio quality. Caret provides a more accurate transcript after post-processing.

​
After your meeting

Once you stop recording, we process the full audio file to make it even more accurate - catching distant voices, quiet sounds, and improving the overall transcription quality. This takes a few minutes. Go to your notes page and click the Transcript tab to review the final conversation. You can edit speaker names and move dialogue around as needed.

FAQ

We work with Zoom, Google Meet, Discord, Slack Huddles, and any platform that makes system audio. We capture audio directly from your system, so it works with pretty much everything.
You’ll get notifications 5 minutes before your meeting starts. You can change this timing in Settings > General.
By default, audio stays only on your device. In Settings > Privacy, you can choose to upload to our servers or delete audio files completely. Enterprise customers can set up custom storage like AWS S3.
