Turn a .vtt transcript file into a diagram

Most meeting tools export captions as .vtt — a format nobody wants to read. MeetingSketch ingests the .vtt directly and reconstructs the architecture discussed in the call, so you get a diagram and brief instead of a timestamped caption file.

Executive brief (excerpt)
  • The mobile app uses a GraphQL gateway that fans out to a users service (DynamoDB) and a payments service (Stripe).
  • Push notifications are delivered via SNS to APNs and FCM.
  • The gateway is the single integration point for the client, keeping service boundaries clean.
Action items
  • Add gateway-level auth + rate limitingHigh
  • Confirm Stripe webhook handling for receiptsMedium

FAQ

Do I need to strip the timestamps from the .vtt?

No — upload the .vtt as-is. MeetingSketch parses the captions and ignores the timing metadata.
