Need to transcribe your Google Meet meetings without sending audio to someone else's servers? Hapi records and transcribes Google Meet meetings entirely on your Mac — with speaker labels, 25+ language support, and zero cloud processing.

Google Meet's Built-in Transcription (and Its Limitations)

Google Meet provides automated captions and meeting notes through Google Workspace.

However, there are notable limitations:

• Requires Google Workspace paid plan for full transcription
• Audio processed through Google servers
• Transcripts stored in Google Drive
• Speaker attribution can be inconsistent

How to Transcribe Google Meet with Hapi

1. Download Hapi and grant microphone + screen recording permissions
2. Start your Google Meet meeting as usual
3. Hapi auto-detects the meeting and begins recording both your microphone and system audio
4. When the meeting ends, Hapi transcribes everything locally with speaker labels
5. Review, search, and export your transcript in multiple formats (TXT, JSON, SRT, VTT, Markdown)

The entire process happens on your Mac. Your Google Meet audio never leaves your device.
