Google Meet Transcription Guide

Google Meet saves recordings to Google Drive, but searching through a 60-minute video to find one decision or quote is a huge time sink. 1bit.ai transcribes your Meet recordings into searchable, speaker-labeled text in minutes. Whether you're a remote-first team, a teacher running virtual classes, or a recruiter conducting video interviews, you'll have a permanent, searchable record of every important conversation.

Technical Specs

Google Meet records meetings as MP4 files stored in Google Drive. Simply download the MP4, upload it to 1bit.ai, or share the Google Drive link directly. Our engine handles Meet's WebRTC-compressed audio codec and automatically compensates for bandwidth-related audio artifacts common in video conferencing.

Optimizing Google Meet Recording Quality

Expert techniques for generating Google Meet video subtitles and transcripts with perfect timing

Check Drive Recording Quality

Google Meet saves recordings at 720p by default. For better audio, use a headset or USB microphone rather than your laptop's built-in mic, which captures more room noise.

Share the Drive Link for Faster Uploads

Instead of downloading and re-uploading the MP4, set the Google Drive file to "Anyone with the link" and paste the URL directly into 1bit.ai—no download needed.

Mute Yourself When Not Speaking

Encourage participants to stay muted when not speaking. Constant background noise from multiple open mics is the biggest cause of transcription errors in Google Meet recordings.

Wait for the Recording to Finish Processing

After a long meeting, Google Drive may take 10-20 minutes to process the recording before it's downloadable. Check the Drive notification before trying to access the file.
