GoToMeeting's Built-in Transcription (and Its Limitations)

GoToMeeting offers cloud recording with transcription on select plans.

However, there are notable limitations:

  • Transcription is a premium add-on
  • Audio sent to cloud for processing
  • Limited real-time transcription
  • Basic speaker identification

How to Transcribe GoToMeeting with Hapi

  1. Download Hapi and grant microphone + screen recording permissions
  2. Start your GoToMeeting 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 GoToMeeting audio never leaves your device.
