The problem

Multilingual teams lose detail — and privacy — to off-the-shelf note-takers.

01

Languages slip through

Persian ↔ German ↔ English is handled poorly by mainstream tools — no Persian glossary, weak right-to-left support — so meaning gets lost across languages.

02

Your audio leaves the room

Most note-takers route your meeting through third-party bot providers and US clouds — a non-starter for privacy-sensitive and GDPR-bound organizations.

03

Note-taking steals attention

People write things down instead of participating — and still miss what was actually said and decided.


Features

A live, accurate, translated record — without anyone else's bot in the call.

01

Live transcription

Real-time, word-by-word transcript streamed to your browser while the meeting is still going.

02

Three languages, no switching

English, German, and Persian, detected per phrase. Speakers can switch language mid-sentence — minutes keeps up.

03

Instant translation

Every finalized line is translated into the languages you choose. Persian renders right-to-left, correctly.

04

Your vocabulary, recognized

Add names, products, and technical terms so minutes spells them right — and carries them into translations.

05

Teams and Google Meet

The note-taker joins as an invited participant — including meetings hosted by other organizations.

06

Live controls, mid-meeting

Change languages, translation targets, or vocabulary on the fly. Changes apply instantly and deterministically.

07

Private by architecture

Hosted entirely in the EU. No third-party meeting-bot provider — only two processors, both under data agreements.

08

Consent-first & GDPR-ready

Visible in the participant list with a recording notice. Capture is gated on consent, with a full erasure path.

09

A permanent record

Every meeting is grouped, timestamped, and searchable. Audio is archived; transcripts stored per meeting.


How it works

From invite to live transcript in four steps.

The note-taker is an invited guest — disclosed, consented, and visible. There's no system-audio hack and no echo; you still hear everything normally.

1

Invite

Add the minutes note-taker account to your Teams or Google Meet meeting, like any other guest.

2

Join

A small app on the operator's Mac signs it in. If it lands in the lobby, the host admits it in one click.

3

Capture

It captures the meeting audio directly in the browser tab and streams it securely to the EU backend.

4

Live transcript & translation

Audio is transcribed, translated, archived, and streamed back to your browser as it happens.

Built for privacy

Yours alone. Hosted in the EU, end to end.

minutes is a compliance product as much as a productivity one. Your meetings don't pass through a managed bot company — and they don't leave the EU.

Hosting
EU-hosted, end to end

A single EU region, with encryption in transit and at rest.

No middleman
No managed bot provider

Built in-house except for the speech-to-text and translation engines — both under data agreements.

Access
Authenticated throughout

You only ever see and control your own meetings.

Consent
Consent & retention first-class

Visible recording notice, consent gate, configurable retention, full erasure.

Reliability
Reliable by design

Capacity-managed, self-healing sessions — no lost audio on brief disconnects.

Use cases

Made for the meetings other tools can't handle.

Cross-border teams

A German team working with Persian-speaking partners gets one shared, translated record everyone reads in their own language.

Externally-hosted meetings

Capture client calls and partner meetings you're invited to but don't organize.

Compliance-sensitive sectors

Legal, public sector, and NGOs that can't route audio through US bot providers.

Accurate technical discussions

Engineering and domain meetings where product names and jargon must stay consistent across languages.

Accessibility & inclusion

Live captions and translation so non-native and hard-of-hearing participants follow along in real time.

Searchable institutional memory

"What did we decide, and who said it?" — answered from a timestamped, multilingual archive.


Why minutes

What makes it different.

Persian, done right.

Right-to-left, a custom glossary, and true tri-lingual en/de/fa with mid-sentence code-switching. Tools like DeepL don't even offer a Persian glossary.

No third-party bot.

Your audio doesn't pass through a managed meeting-bot company. The pipeline is yours.

EU residency by default.

Not an add-on tier — EU hosting is how minutes is built.

Consent-first.

Disclosed, visible capture only. We don't design around detection.

Teams and Meet.

Including externally-hosted meetings — not just calls you own.

Live, not after the fact.

Transcript and translation stream during the meeting, not in a report afterward.

True right-to-left Persian

Persian renders RTL the way it should — in the live timeline, in translations, and in the searchable archive.

Mid-sentence code-switching

Speakers move between languages naturally. minutes detects language per phrase and keeps up without dropping a beat.

Your terminology, everywhere

A custom glossary keeps names, products, and technical terms consistent — recognized in speech and carried into every translation.
