Why Teams Pick Sider for Meeting Transcription

No Bot Joins Your Calls

Most transcription tools send a robot participant into your meeting. Sider records locally in your browser instead, so your participant list stays clean, no host needs to approve anything, and it works on every platform—even ones that block third-party bots.

Choose Your AI Model

Don't want to be locked into one AI? Sider lets you generate meeting summaries with GPT-5.5, Claude 4.6, Gemini 3.5, and 7+ other models. Swap models any time to compare quality or use different ones for different meeting types.

Meetings Become Permanent Knowledge

A transcript you can't find later isn't useful. Wisebase indexes every recording, note, and summary so you can search across months of meetings in seconds. Ask the AI questions about what was decided in any past call—even ones you didn't attend.
