Meeting Transcription API: Convert Speech to Text for Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams
Discover how Meeting BaaS's API enables you to transcribe meetings from Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams with 99+ language support, speaker diarization, and real-time processing.

Meeting transcription has become essential for modern businesses, but building a reliable speech-to-text solution from scratch is complex and resource-intensive. Meeting BaaS (Meeting bots as a Service) provides a comprehensive API that handles the entire transcription pipeline, from recording to processing, allowing you to focus on building your applications.
What is the Meeting BaaS API?
Our Meeting Bot API allows you to record and convert speech to text for Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams meetings using one simple curl command.
Transform your video meetings into searchable, analyzable text data with enterprise-grade accuracy and speed.
Core Capabilities
The Meeting BaaS API provides a complete solution for capturing and analyzing meeting content:
- Transcription support for 99 languages with high accuracy
- Speaker diarization for unlimited participants
- Transcription of both spoken words and chat messages
- Real-time transcription with processing speed of 1 hour audio in less than 60 seconds
Our API integrates with Gladia's proprietary Whisper-Zero ASR, optimized for real-life enterprise audio, providing a complete solution for capturing and analyzing meeting content.

Automate Meeting Workflows
Using the Meeting BaaS API, you can set up automations to extract information from video meetings into the database of your choice, be it an end-user database such as Notion or Airtable, or a more robust solution like PostgreSQL.
As we handle getting the data, and also optionally transcribe your meetings, you're just one API call away from an LLM to structure the data, extract meaning, and store it.
Notion Integration Example
Automatically send meeting summaries to Notion with structured data extraction and AI-powered insights.
Our API makes it simple to integrate with Notion for automated meeting documentation:
// Example: Get meeting data and send to Notion
const response = await fetch('https://api.meetingbaas.com/getMeetingData', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: JSON.stringify({
meeting_url: 'https://meet.google.com/xxx-yyyy-zzz',
include_transcript: true,
include_metadata: true
})
});
Make + Airtable Integration
Leverage Make (formerly Integromat) and Airtable to create a powerful automation workflow for your meetings.
Create sophisticated automation workflows that trigger on new meeting recordings and process data with AI services.
Workflow Steps:
- Set up a Make scenario to trigger on new meeting recordings
- Use Meeting BaaS API to retrieve meeting data and transcriptions
- Process the data with AI services for summarization and insights
- Automatically update Airtable with structured meeting information
