Turn a Zoom transcript into a diagram

Zoom can record and transcribe every system-design call — but the transcript alone doesn't help the team that wasn't there. MeetingSketch converts your Zoom transcript into the architecture you discussed, with a current vs. to-be view, a brief, and action items.

A worked example

Here is a short sample transcript from Zoom and the architecture, brief, and action items MeetingSketch generates from it.

Sample Zoom transcript
Lead: Today the monolith handles auth, orders, and notifications in one Rails app.
Eng: We want to peel notifications out first into its own service behind SQS.
Lead: Auth becomes a shared service; orders stays in the monolith for now.
Eng: The web app talks to an API gateway that routes to each service.

Executive brief (excerpt)
  • The Rails monolith currently owns auth, orders, and notifications.
  • To-be: extract notifications first (consumed via SQS), promote auth to a shared service, keep orders in the monolith for now, with an API gateway routing the web app.
  • Sequencing notifications-first limits blast radius and proves the pattern before touching orders.

FAQ

Does it use Zoom Cloud Recording transcripts?

Yes — paste the Zoom transcript text or upload the .vtt/.txt file. No bot joins your call; you bring the transcript.

Can it produce a migration / to-be diagram?

Yes. When the call describes a target architecture, it generates a to-be diagram alongside the current state.
