Meeting Notes · Q3 planning sync

Decisions

  • Ship the pricing update on 15 July, gated behind the existing feature flag.
  • Move design review to Thursdays so engineering gets feedback before sprint planning.

Action items

  • Maya - draft the customer announcement email by Friday.
  • Daniel - audit the onboarding funnel and bring drop-off numbers to the next sync.

Key discussion

  • Support volume is up sharply this month; most tickets trace back to the new import flow.
  • Agreed the Q3 focus stays on retention over new acquisition.
How it works

From conversation to notes in three steps

Nobody has to be the one typing minutes. Capture the audio and the AI writes the notes.

Updated September 2026

Record a meeting live in Scholarly or upload the audio afterwards - MP3, M4A, WAV, WebM, OGG, or a video file - and Scholarly transcribes it with timestamps, then writes structured notes: decisions, action items, and key points grouped by topic, with the full transcript attached. Transcript and notes are included and a meeting does not use an AI Creation Credit. Free includes 3 meetings total, with no reset, each up to 60 minutes. Premium includes 20 meetings a week and Laureate 100, each up to 10 hours. Paid meeting allowances reset every Monday at 00:00 UTC. Teams plans - Premium for Teams at $35 per seat/month or Laureate for Teams at $110 per seat/month - give every seat that plan's meeting allowance, with shared libraries and one central bill.

01

Record or upload

Capture the meeting live in Scholarly - hours at a time on paid plans - or upload the audio afterwards: MP3, M4A, WAV, WebM, OGG, even video files like MP4.

02

The AI transcribes and writes the notes

Scholarly transcribes the audio with timestamps. Then it organises the transcript into clean notes - the decisions, action items, and key points, grouped by topic instead of the order things were said.

03

Review, ask, and share

Read the notes next to the full transcript, ask the chat what was said about anything, and share or download them. Everything lands in your library.

What you get

Notes you can act on, not a wall of transcript

Grounded in the actual recording - so nothing gets misremembered, and nothing gets lost.

Live recording, hours at a time on paid plans

Hit record at the start of the meeting and stay in the conversation. Scholarly captures and transcribes the audio, and one click turns it into notes when you're done.

Upload recordings from anywhere

A Zoom export, a phone voice memo, an interview file - MP3, M4A, WAV, WebM, OGG, and video files all work.

Decisions and action items, surfaced

The notes pull out what actually matters - what was decided, what happens next, and the key points of discussion - instead of burying it in prose.

The full transcript stays attached

Every line of the notes can be checked against the timestamped transcript of what was actually said. No arguing about who said what.

Ask your meeting questions

Chat with the recording afterwards - ask what was said about budget, or what the client objected to - and get answers grounded in the transcript.

Works for lectures and classes too

The same tool captures seminars, lectures, office hours, and study groups - students use it every day. One recorder for work and school.

Why it helps

Whoever takes the notes misses the meeting

When you're typing minutes, you're not really in the conversation - and when you're in the conversation, the decisions evaporate by the next morning. Someone always pays the note-taking tax.

Scholarly listens instead. It transcribes the whole meeting, then writes the notes the way a good assistant would: decisions and action items pulled out, discussion grouped by topic, every line grounded in the actual transcript rather than a vague summary from memory.

And because the recording lands in your workspace as a source, the meeting keeps working after it ends. Ask the chat what was agreed, pull an exact quote from the transcript, or - if it was a training session or a class - turn the same recording into flashcards and a quiz.

FAQ

Common questions

What can I turn into meeting notes?

Meetings recorded live in Scholarly, or any audio you upload - MP3, M4A (phone voice memos), WAV, WebM, and OGG, plus video files like MP4 and MOV, where Scholarly uses the audio track. Paid plans transcribe up to 10 hours per meeting; the Free plan transcribes up to 60 minutes. Longer uploads keep their full audio, and only the first 10 hours (paid) or 60 minutes (Free) are transcribed.

How are the notes structured?

By what matters, not by the order things were said: the decisions made, the action items that came out of them, and the key discussion points grouped by topic. The timestamped transcript stays attached so you can verify any line against the original audio.

Can I use it for lectures, interviews, or classes too?

Yes. The same tool powers lecture capture for students - seminars, office hours, study groups - and works for interviews, trainings, and any other spoken session. The notes adapt to what was recorded.

Is it free?

Yes. Transcript and notes are included with every meeting, and a meeting does not use an AI Creation Credit or a file upload. Free includes 3 meetings total, with no reset, each up to 60 minutes. Premium includes 20 meetings a week and Laureate 100, each up to 10 hours. Paid meeting allowances reset every Monday at 00:00 UTC.
