Technical basics in simple words

Sally is AI-powered transcription software that helps you save meetings or conversations in text form. Sally uses a combination of screen capture and advanced voice recognition to precisely convert spoken content into written words. Here is a simple overview of the individual steps that take place during the process:

1. GDPR-compliant recording of meetings

Sally screen captures your meeting. This means that both the image and the sound of the meeting are captured. In doing so, we ensure that all recordings are GDPR-compliant. This means that your data is protected, that recording only takes place with your consent and that all legal regulations are complied with.

‍

‍

What does GDPR-compliant mean?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European Union law that regulates the protection of personal data. Sally only stores and processes your data in accordance with these strict data protection requirements.

2. Converting recording to text with AI voice recognition

After recording, comes the exciting part: Sally uses advanced AI voice recognition technology to turn the recorded conversations into text. This means that the AI automatically recognizes what was said in your meeting and converts the spoken words into understandable text.
This happens in a matter of seconds and with a high level of accuracy.

‍

What is AI voice recognition?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that enables computers to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence — such as recognizing and understanding speech. Our voice recognition analyses the recording and converts it into written form to provide you with the transcript.

3. Two ways to get transcripts

There are two easy ways you can get your transcript with Sally:

3.1 By screen recording during the meeting

After the meeting, you will receive the transcript via email. This email includes the full transcript of the meeting so you can quickly access it. You can also access, save, and reuse the transcript directly from the Sally platform.

‍

Where can I access the transcript?
You can find the transcript on your Sally platform under the “Documents” or “Transcripts” tab. All transcripts are saved there and you can filter them by date, meeting, or topic.

3.2 By uploading audio or video files

In addition to screen recording, Sally offers another convenient option: You can upload existing audio or video files to the platform and Sally will transcribe them for you. Simply upload the file and AI voice recognition does the rest.

‍
Sally can process common formats such as MP3, WAV, MP4 and many more. As soon as the file is transcribed, you will also receive an email with the transcript and can view it directly on the platform.

4. Additional Features and Benefits

In addition to transcription, Sally also offers the option to edit, comment on or share the transcripts. This allows you to make changes and collaborate with other team members directly from the platform.

conclusion

Sally makes it easy to record your meetings, automatically convert them to text, and quickly receive and manage transcripts. Thanks to the combination of screen capture, the ability to upload files, AI voice recognition and GDPR-compliant processing, Sally gives you an efficient and privacy-friendly solution for transcribing meetings.
