From audio to minutes, in two steps
First an accurate transcript, with named speakers and your organisation's vocabulary. Then minutes on the template of your choice. The quality of the first step determines the second.
The platform on video
One minute to see the tool, then a full demonstration on a public meeting of the Renens municipal council, with minutes in indirect speech, the format used by most municipalities.
How it works
Live recording or file upload, choice of minutes template, document ready for review. Nothing to install.
A municipal council meeting, from audio to minutes
Public meeting of Renens reconstructed from public documents: raw audio, enriched transcript, then minutes in indirect speech exported to Word. Video in French. See the municipal offer →
Step 1 · Enriched transcription
Before and after: what enriched transcription changes
You declare speakers, your professional vocabulary, acronyms and proper names once. In every new transcript they are recognised and applied; each correction appears in red in the preview.
Named speakers
“Speaker 1” becomes “Rachid Taaroufi, Council President”. Declared voices are better separated and recognised from one meeting to the next.
Professional vocabulary and acronyms
COFIN, CUAT, STEP de Vidy, CSM SA, place names, suppliers, medications: spelled right, once and for all.
Swiss German, two outputs
Audio in dialect, text in Swiss German or standard German: a single setting, no per-canton profile.
And therefore better minutes
Correct names, amounts and decisions as input: the minutes attribute statements to the right people and quote the right figures, without manual rework.
Illustrative excerpts. Enriched transcription is in beta, included in all accounts; review remains necessary, and the tracked corrections make it fast.

Step 2 · Minutes generation
What each minutes format produces
One transcript, up to three documents. Each template was written with practitioners so the document comes out in the form they expect. Lengths given for one hour of recording, as an order of magnitude.

Want to go further? Launch a pilot project
This is how CSS started with us: a scoped pilot within one department, a real-world test, then extension to other teams, with a reported gain of one to two hours of documentation per patient visit. A pilot goes further than a custom prompt: scope, support and duration are discussed according to your needs.
Together we define the scope: types of meetings, expected minutes templates, confidentiality requirements.
We credit hours to an Enterprise account: your team tests with its real recordings, no commitment.
Together we measure the time saved and the quality achieved. Then you decide, fully informed.
