# Meeting shortener

Shorten meeting recordings and presentations using the original speech, not generated narration.

- Light: Remove filler, repetition and long pauses.
- Medium: Also remove tangents and redundant discussion.
- Strong: Keep core arguments, decisions and outcomes.

## How to shorten a meeting recording

1. Upload an audio or video recording of your meeting, lecture or presentation.
2. Choose Light, Medium or Strong. Optionally say what to keep or remove, such as a product demo, a decision or a particular topic.
3. Review the cuts in the transcript editor. Restore any words, then export your recording and captions.
