The notes stay. SalamAI can save transcripts and create summaries for supported sessions. Get the key points, decisions and tasks after a meeting or event. You can also offer listeners a PDF summary or transcript. Save transcripts and summaries Transcripts · Summaries · Downloads In short ## What can you keep after a translated session? Updated 30 October 2026 Supported SalamAI sessions can save a transcript and create an optional structured summary of key points, decisions and tasks, in up to five languages. Transcripts download as Markdown text and captions as SRT subtitle files when saving is enabled. If the organiser enables listener documents, approved attendees can request a PDF summary, a full transcript or both when each run stops, on their phone or by email. Standalone Transcribe only sessions save text but do not create summaries. In supported voice sessions, High privacy mode saves none of these. AI summaries can contain mistakes, so check names, figures and deadlines against the transcript. ### How do listeners get a summary or transcript? First, the organiser enables session documents before the session starts and agrees that documents can cover the whole run, including speech from before a listener joined. During the event, approved listeners request a summary, a full transcript or both from their Companion page. When the operator presses Stop and processing finishes, listeners can download a PDF on their phone or choose email delivery. Downloaded files and emailed copies cannot be recalled, so only enable this for content you are happy to share. Processing and document delivery may add charges, and in supported voice sessions, High privacy mode does not save these documents.

Search and read it on your device, then copy or delete it as needed. 02 ### Save subtitles and readable text Turn on SRT subtitle files, Markdown text transcripts or both. Find them in Recordings by session and language, with original or translated text where available. Files are encrypted before upload. Access follows account or campaign rules. Long sessions may create numbered files. 03 ### Summarise decisions and tasks Supported sessions can create a summary in up to five languages. Request it, then copy or download the result. The transcript is processed when you request a summary. Sharing it with the audience is a separate choice. 04 ### Offer listeners a PDF If session documents are enabled, approved Audience Companion listeners can request a summary or full transcript in their language. When the run stops and processing finishes, they can download a private PDF or choose email. This is separate from showing a summary on the audience page. 05 ### Find every talk by name History, Rec & Transcripts and reports carry the console, session and run names, so Hall 1 · Talk 2 is easy to find. History also shows how each session ended, for example stopped by the operator or after silence. ### Check saving before you close After stopping, check that saving has finished and review any warnings. Only confirmed text is saved. Lost connections or closing the browser too soon can leave gaps. Listener documents ## Send a summary or transcript after every talk. 01 ### Turn on listener documents Before the event, enable the Companion summary option and review its whole-event capture and sharing notice. 02 ### Let listeners request what they need Approved listeners choose summary, full transcript or both.

Pressing Stop starts document preparation, and the PDF becomes available after processing, under the applicable access and retention limits. ### Review before sharing AI-generated summaries and translated transcripts can contain mistakes. Check names, numbers, decisions and deadlines against the source. Document generation and delivery may add processing charges.
