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

Microsoft Teams's Built-in Transcription (and Its Limitations)

Teams includes live captions and meeting transcription as part of Microsoft 365 business plans.

However, there are notable limitations:

• Requires Microsoft 365 Business or Enterprise license
• Audio is processed through Microsoft cloud services
• Transcription stored in Microsoft cloud
• Limited export options for transcripts

How to Transcribe Microsoft Teams with Hapi

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