Transcription and diarization: understanding these key technologies to optimize your meetings

Transcription and diarization play a vital role in turning your spoken exchanges into actionable documents. These technologies not only accurately capture meeting content but also identify who is speaking at any moment, making it easier to follow and understand discussions. These tools have become essential in today’s professional world, where traceability, collaboration, and meeting efficiency are crucial. By faithfully capturing content and attributing each remark to its speaker, these technologies support decision-making, improve action tracking, and streamline meeting management.

What is transcription and why is it essential for businesses?

Transcription automatically converts speech into written text. This technology creates an accurate and complete record of a meeting, interview, or conversation, without the need for manual note-taking. In business, transcription has become indispensable for several reasons:

• Traceability: ensures all exchanged information is preserved and accessible, which is vital for tracking decisions.
• Time-saving: frees participants from note-taking, allowing them to focus fully on the discussion.
• Accessibility: transcripts make it easy to review, search for specific information, and share with absent colleagues.

For example, with Leexi, you record your meetings and the transcription is generated and integrated directly into the AI-meeting assistant interface. This lets users instantly retrieve their meeting content, with transcription quality enhanced by smart algorithms tailored to professional contexts.

How does Leexi use transcription to accurately capture your conversations?

Transcription is the foundation of automated note-taking. Leexi uses state-of-the-art speech-to-text algorithms to convert speech into written text with high accuracy. This technology goes beyond word-for-word transcription: it includes contextual adaptation mechanisms that recognize industry-specific vocabulary, proper names, and technical terms.

Thanks to this approach, Leexi delivers smooth, intelligible transcriptions that faithfully reflect your meetings. For instance, in a sales meeting, Leexi automatically recognizes negotiation or product-related terms, avoiding common errors found in standard transcripts. The result? A clear transcript, ready to consult or share instantly, with no tedious corrections needed.

What is diarization and how does it improve understanding of conversations?

Diarization is the technology that identifies and distinguishes different speakers in an audio recording. In other words, it assigns each speech segment to the right person. This feature is especially useful in meetings with multiple participants, as it:

• Clarifies exchanges: knowing who said what avoids confusion and aids decision-making.
• Enhances collaboration: each member can easily find their own and others’ contributions.
• Strengthens traceability: linking statements to speakers ensures better accountability and action tracking.

Leexi features advanced diarization that works seamlessly with transcription. Users get a transcript and a list of action items after the meeting, segmented by speaker, making meetings easier to read and analyze.
