Summarize your Zoom recording
Upload a Zoom recording you have and let AI hand you the decisions, action items, and a full speaker-labeled transcript.
Accepts your Zoom recording – MP4 video or M4A audio (or any audio/video file) · returns an AI meeting summary with action items, plus a speaker-labeled transcript.
Upload a Zoom recording you have the right to transcribe, and make sure everyone on the call consented to being recorded before you uploaded it. Pepys transcribes your file – it does not connect to or record the meeting for you, and is not affiliated with Zoom; the name is used only to describe the recording.

How zoom meeting summarizer works
Find your Zoom recording
Open your saved local recording or download a cloud recording from Zoom – the MP4 or M4A file.
Get your summary
Drop the file in and AI transcribes it, then writes a meeting summary with decisions and action items in minutes.
Review and export
Read the recap, ask follow-up questions in chat, edit inline, then export the summary and transcript to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, SRT, or VTT.
A recorded Zoom call is a wall of time nobody wants to re-watch. Upload the MP4 or M4A and Pepys distills it for you: the decisions made, the open questions, who owns what, and the moments worth revisiting – so a 60-minute meeting becomes a recap you can read and forward in under a minute.
Every summary is grounded in a full, speaker-labeled, timestamped transcript, so each action item links back to who said it and when. Ask follow-ups in built-in chat, work in 99+ languages, and pay only for the minutes you process – we never train on your audio, and 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
RawDecisions, action items, and owners – not a wall of transcript to re-read
Speaker labels and timestamps so every takeaway traces back to who said it

Zoom meeting summarizer – questions, answered
How do I summarize a Zoom meeting recording?
Save your Zoom recording (local MP4/M4A or a downloaded cloud recording), upload it on this page, and Pepys returns a meeting summary with action items in minutes. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.
Do I need a paid Zoom plan or Zoom's AI Companion?
No. Pepys works from the recording file itself, so you don't need Zoom's own summary feature or any particular plan. If you have the MP4 or M4A, you can summarize it.
What's in the summary?
A concise recap with key decisions, open questions, and action items, all grounded in a speaker-labeled, timestamped transcript so you can jump to the exact moment behind any point.
Can I summarize a meeting held in another language?
Yes. Pepys auto-detects 99+ languages and summarizes in the spoken language, and you can translate the finished transcript afterward.
Is my meeting private?
Yes. We never train AI on your audio, transcripts, or summaries, and you can auto-delete your files after processing.
