# Meeting notetakers and transcripts

> Connect the notetaker your team records with, and how OpenATS attaches each transcript to the right interview.

Connect your notetaker in **Settings → Integrations → Meeting notetakers**: Fireflies, Fathom, Metaview, Granola, Otter, Circleback, Walkie, Tactiq, Zoom or Google Meet. Every 15 minutes OpenATS matches new recordings to interviews, attaches the ones it’s sure of, and asks you about the rest. You can also paste a transcript in.

## Connect a notetaker

1. Open **Settings → Integrations → Meeting notetakers**.
   It’s marked **Beta**.
2. Choose your notetaker and sign in to it. Fireflies and Metaview can also connect with **Use an API key**.
3. That’s it.
   Transcripts from your interviews start appearing within 15 minutes.

| Notetaker | Good to know |
| --- | --- |
| Fireflies, Fathom, Metaview, Granola, Otter, Circleback | Connect with your account. |
| Walkie | Reconnect once a quarter. |
| Tactiq | Needs a Tactiq Team plan. |
| Zoom | Needs a paid Zoom plan with cloud recording and audio transcripts. |
| Google Meet | Covers calls you organize, on a Google Workspace plan with transcripts. |

Each person connects their own. Teammates connect theirs from Settings too.

## How a transcript finds its interview

- It attaches by itself when the interview’s location is the call’s link and the call started within 30 minutes of the interview, or when the candidate’s email was on the invitation.
- Otherwise it waits under **Transcripts to review** on **Interviews**: choose **Attach** or **Not an interview**.
- A call with a candidate when no interview was scheduled shows under **Calls with candidates**: **Log as interview** or **Not an interview**.

Each interview keeps one transcript. A notetaker’s is preferred: the platform’s own (Zoom or Meet) waits two hours for it.

> **Tip:** Put the call’s link in the interview’s **Location / video link** when you schedule it. It’s the surest way for the transcript to attach by itself.

## Add one by hand

On a candidate, **Transcripts → Add transcript** takes a title, the interview (optional) and the transcript text. On an interview, **Attach a recording** lists your own meetings from 12 hours either side of it.

## What OpenATS does with a transcript

When AI is on, it builds a call summary (overview, key takeaways, experience and skills discussed, preferences, open questions, next steps), fills in a blank headline or location from what was said, and drafts the written answers of the interviewer’s scorecard. Ratings are never filled in. Every transcript is searchable, and [Ask](https://openats.ai/docs/search-and-ai/ask) answers from them.

> **Note:** Disconnecting a notetaker stops new transcripts. The ones already attached stay.
