The centre panel in Meet mode is where you capture what happens during the meeting. You can take your own notes in markdown and invite Scribe — The Gap's AI notetaker — to join your online call and transcribe the conversation in real time. The two work side by side, so you keep your own style while Scribe makes sure nothing is missed.

Both your notes and the transcript are used as inputs when the Producer generates your deliverables after the meeting.

Taking notes

The notes panel is a freeform markdown editor. Use it however works best for you — bullet points, full sentences, or quick shorthand. For formatting options and content blocks, see Editing content in the workspace.

Inviting Scribe to an online meeting

At the top of the notes panel, click Transcribe to open the transcription popover. From here:

1. Enter the URL for your online meeting — Scribe supports Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet.
2. Click Invite.

Scribe will join the meeting as a participant. Once admitted by the host, transcription starts automatically.

During transcription

While Scribe is transcribing, the word Transcribing appears at the top of the notes panel. Click it at any time to open the popover and see the live transcript as it's being recorded.

If you need Scribe to stop recording temporarily — for example, during a private sidebar — click Pause in the popover. Click Resume when you're ready for transcription to continue.

To stop transcription entirely, end the online meeting. When the meeting ends, Scribe stops automatically and your deliverables will begin generating.

In-person meetings

Scribe works best when invited to an online meeting, but you can also record in-person meetings directly from your device. Speaker attribution may be less accurate for in-person recordings, but you'll still get the full transcript and all the deliverables that come from it.

Using a transcript from another tool

If you already use a notetaker you're happy with, you can copy-paste the transcript from that tool into The Gap. You can do this in Review mode. Click Add Transcript in the right-hand panel, paste your transcript and click Done Editing when you're finished. You won't get Scribe's live transcription, but the Producer will still use the pasted transcript alongside your agenda, notes, and pre-work to generate your deliverables.

Editing the transcript

You can edit the transcript after the meeting from Review mode. Click View Transcript in the right-hand panel, then click Edit to make corrections — for example, fixing misheard words or correcting speaker names. Click Done Editing when you're finished.

If you edit the transcript after deliverables have already been generated, you'll be prompted to regenerate them to reflect your changes.

Good to know

• Notes and Scribe are independent — you can take notes without using Scribe, use Scribe without taking notes, or use both together.
• A stop button is coming soon — currently, ending the online meeting is the only way to stop Scribe. A dedicated stop button will be added in a future update.
• The transcript is editable — if Scribe gets a word or name wrong, you can fix it in Review mode and regenerate your deliverables.
• Your notes feed your deliverables too — anything you type in the notes panel is used by the Producer alongside the transcript, agenda, and pre-work when generating meeting minutes and other deliverables.
