REC Note — AI Note Taker for Meetings & Videos

Sider Desktop (windows) “Recording Notes” turns every meeting into actionable knowledge.

In today’s remote and hybrid work, accurate capture and efficient recap of meeting information directly impact team efficiency and project progress. Sider Desktop’s new “Recording Notes” feature, detects your voice scenarios without disruption, performs real-time transcription and note-taking, and uses RAG + LLM after the meeting to generate structured “enhanced notes.” One meeting, multiple outcomes.

Why “Recording Notes”?

Less manual distraction: Stop typing during meetings and focus on the conversation.

No more missed details: Real-time transcription even for complex or multilingual discussions.

Faster recap: Get structured enhanced notes right after the meeting.

Fits your flow: When a microphone input is detected, start with a click—no workflow disruption.

How it works

Activates passively, only when you need it

When microphone input is detected (meetings, calls, screen recording with voice, etc.), a bottom-right card appears: Choose “Start recording” or “Set auto-start rules”

During recording: see what’s said, capture what matters

Real-time transcription

Uses native Windows Speech Recognition

Switch languages in the UI

Live scrolling transcript for instant review

Parallel note-taking

Add highlights and remarks while transcribing

Transcript and notes are displayed side by side

UI controls

Switch between a compact floating bar and full window

Change mic device, pause/resume, or exit recording mode

Background status

When you’re back to inbox or elsewhere, a top status bar keeps “Recording” visible

Stop recording: auto-generate “enhanced notes”

On stop, the transcript is uploaded and a RAG pipeline is triggered

The system uses your notes and transcript with an LLM to generate enhanced notes

Switch templates and regenerate anytime

Accuracy upgrade: if the live transcript isn’t accurate enough, use Whisper to re-transcribe. Enhanced notes and chat will then rely on Whisper’s output.

Typical use cases

Weekly and project meetings: reduce post-meeting cleanup and lock down action items

Customer interviews and reviews: preserve verbatim quotes and key points across teams/languages

Candidate interviews: structured outputs for evaluation and team decisions

Trainings/workshops: consolidate takeaways and Q&A into your knowledge base

Ad-hoc voice discussions: transcribe quickly and preserve context even outside formal meetings
