How do I turn audio into structured notes?

To turn audio into notes, upload a recording or paste a link to Pepys and AI transcribes it, then organizes the content into structured notes – key points, decisions, and action items – in minutes, in 99+ languages, grounded in a full timestamped transcript. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.

How ai notes from audio works

01

Upload audio or paste a link

Drop in a meeting, lecture, or call recording – or paste a link. Any format, any language.

02

Get structured notes

AI transcribes the audio and lays it out as organized notes – key points, decisions, and action items – in minutes.

03

Refine and export

Tweak anything inline, ask follow-up questions in chat, then export the notes and transcript to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, or PDF.

Scrubbing back through a recording to write up notes is the slow part of any meeting, class, or interview. Pepys does it for you: upload the audio or paste a link and you get clean, structured notes – the main points, the decisions made, and the action items – pulled straight from what was actually said, not a guess.

Because the notes are grounded in a full, timestamped, speaker-labeled transcript, every line traces back to the moment it came from – open the transcript whenever you need the exact wording. It works across 99+ languages, we never train on your audio, and you pay only for what you transcribe; credits never expire.

Clean paragraphs. No more um's and ah's.

The left is what Pepys hands back – logical paragraphs with the filler stripped out, punctuated and readable. The right is the raw, one-line-per-segment dump most transcribers leave you with.

um so yeah everyone keeps telling you to like lead with your best line right but uh honestly if you give away the whole answer in the first second you know there's basically no reason for anyone to keep watching so the hook isn't kind of the smartest thing you say it's like a loop you open that they need to close and um that's the part that actually keeps people around

Ai notes from audio – questions, answered

How do I turn audio into structured notes?

Upload your recording or paste a link on this page. Pepys transcribes it and organizes the content into structured notes with key points and action items in minutes – your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.

What's the difference between the notes and the transcript?

The transcript is the full word-for-word text; the notes distill it into the main points, decisions, and to-dos. Pepys gives you both, so you can skim the notes and open the transcript for the exact wording any time.

Can I get notes from a meeting, lecture, or interview?

Yes – any recording works. Upload a meeting, class, interview, or call, and Pepys organizes it into clean notes you can edit, copy, and share.

Does it work in other languages?

Yes. Pepys auto-detects 99+ languages and takes notes in the spoken language, and you can translate the finished transcript afterward.

Do you train on my audio?

Never. We don't train AI on your audio, transcripts, or notes, and you can auto-delete your files after processing.
