Meeting minutes for public boards, drafted from your recording
Upload the recording of your council, commission, board or district meeting. Secure Minutes writes a transcript with speaker labels and drafts your minutes: motions, who moved and seconded, and how everyone voted.
30 days free. No credit card required.
How it works
From a recording to searchable minutes
Upload the recording
Drag in the audio or video from your meeting. Any common format, any length.
Get the transcript and Smart Summary minutes
A speaker-labeled transcript comes back first, then a Smart Summary drafts your minutes with the motions, seconds and votes — in minutes, not hours.
Find anything, years later
Every meeting becomes searchable. Look up a keyword, or ask in plain English and get the answer with the exact quote.
Built for whoever keeps the minutes
City and county clerks, board secretaries, district administrators, recording secretaries
Motions and votes, drafted
Draft minutes with motions, movers, seconds and votes, for you to review and edit.
Fix names and wording in place
Correct speaker names and edit the transcript and the minutes directly.
No caps to work around
No limits on meetings, hours or file size, and no per-minute charge, so a five-hour budget hearing is routine.
Your back catalog, searchable
Upload past recordings and search years of meetings at once.
Alongside what you already use
Works with your agenda and minutes software; it doesn’t replace your official records process.
Finding what was said, years later
When someone asks what the board decided about the water rate in 2023, you search once and get the answer with the excerpt, instead of reading through old minutes.
For every kind of public body
City and town councils · county boards and commissions · school boards · water, fire, library and utility districts · planning and zoning commissions · townships · housing and transit authorities

Questions boards ask
Does it replace our agenda or minutes software?
No. It works alongside what you use today and gives you a draft to start from.
Who approves the minutes?
Your board does. Secure Minutes only writes the draft for you to review first.
How long does transcription take?
It depends on the length of the recording, but transcription to draft minutes takes just a few minutes.
Is there a limit on meeting length or the number of meetings?
No. There is no cap on the number of meetings or the hours transcribed, and no per-minute charge. Files up to 100 GiB.
Can we search our old meetings?
Yes. Upload past recordings and search all of them together.
Can we pay with a purchase order?
Yes: invoice against a purchase order on net terms, or pay by card. Checks accepted.
