How do I upload a meeting recording?
Last updated: May 24, 2026
Upload a pre-recorded audio or video file to get it transcribed and analysed by Ovida.
From the Meetings page, click Upload meeting file to add an audio or video file you've already recorded. Ovida will transcribe it and run the same analysis you'd get from a meeting recorded in Ovida.
Looking to upload a Zoom or Teams recording of a meeting with someone else? That's a different scenario with privacy and quality considerations. See "Can I upload Zoom or Teams recordings to Ovida?"
Before you upload

Steps
On the Meetings page, click Upload meeting file. You can also start an upload from the Add meeting dialog on your Skills page.

While Ovida transcribes the file, fill in the details:
