Turn recordings into transcripts and summaries in minutes
Upload audio or video for multilingual transcription, AI notes, and action items
Tinrec is an AI recording and audio/video organization tool designed for meetings, learning, interviews, and content creation. It not only converts audio to text but also automatically generates summaries, to-do items, and supports AI Q&A around the recording content. It supports iOS, Android, and web versions. The free plan provides basic transcription credits each month, suitable for lawyers, legal professionals, and specialists who frequently handle meeting notes.

What Can AI Meeting Notes Do for Lawyers?
Scenario 1: Get Key Summaries Immediately After a Meeting
You've just finished a two-hour case discussion. If you were to organize it manually, it would take at least another hour. With Tinrec, as soon as the meeting ends, the AI has already generated a structured summary—meeting topic, discussion conclusions, action items, and responsible persons—all at a glance.
Scenario 2: Never Miss Key Details in Client Meetings
During client meetings, it's hard to focus on the conversation while taking detailed notes. Tinrec's real-time voice-to-text feature allows you to concentrate on asking questions while the conversation is transcribed in real time. After the meeting, a quick scan gives you all the key points.
Scenario 3: More Efficient Pre-Trial Preparation
You can directly upload past court recordings or opposing counsel's statement videos to Tinrec or paste a public video link. In just a few minutes, you get the full transcript and key points, allowing quick cross-referencing of evidence and arguments.
What Are Tinrec's Core Features?
Real-Time Transcription: Text as You Record
Tinrec's real-time transcription has very low latency. During meetings, you can read the text in real time to ensure nothing is missed. Even with multiple speakers, it can distinguish between different speakers for easy later organization.

AI Semantic Summary: Not Just a Summary, but Structured Organization
Unlike simple transcript summaries, Tinrec breaks down meeting content into: meeting topic, discussion conclusions, action items, responsible persons, and even automatically highlights key sections, so you can directly quote or share with your team.
AI Dialogue Query: Ask the Recording Like You'd Ask a Colleague
After transcription, you can directly ask Tinrec: 'Who mentioned the jurisdiction dispute in the meeting?' 'What was the client's attitude toward the settlement proposal?' It will answer based on semantic understanding, saving you the time of listening to the entire recording again.
Automatic Action Item Extraction
Action items discussed in the meeting are automatically extracted and listed as a to-do list, including who should do what and when it should be done, making it ideal for lawyers to track case progress.
Stop organizing recordings by hand
Upload audio or video and automatically get a transcript, summary, and action items
Multi-Format Export and Sync
Organized meeting notes, transcripts, or to-do items can be exported as Word, PDF, TXT, etc., or synced to Notion and Google Docs, seamlessly integrating with your existing workflow.
Practical Application Scenarios for Lawyers
Internal Case Meetings
After each case discussion, Tinrec automatically converts the recording into meeting minutes, including opinions and decisions, and marks action items, eliminating post-meeting cleanup.
Client Meetings
During client interviews, listening attentively is more important than taking notes. Tinrec's real-time transcription means you only need a few minutes after the meeting to review the summary and ensure no facts are missed.
Legal Courses and Lectures
When attending continuing education courses, record the full content. Tinrec converts it into text notes and automatically breaks it into chapters. When reviewing, just search for keywords without having to listen from start to finish.
Evidence Material Organization
For recordings provided by the other party or public videos online, directly upload or paste the link for Tinrec to parse, quickly obtaining transcripts and key points to speed up evidence comparison.
Points to Consider When Choosing a Lawyer Meeting Notes Tool
1. Accuracy and Language Support
Don't just rely on official numbers; test with your own actual recordings. Tinrec performs well with Chinese and mixed Chinese-English content, but accuracy can still be affected by recording environment and accents.
2. Post-Transcription 'Organization' Capability
Converting to text is just the first step. The ability to automatically summarize, extract action items, and distinguish speakers is key to saving time. Tinrec not only provides transcripts but also turns the content into usable data.
3. Cross-Platform and Real-Time Capability
Lawyers often switch between courtrooms, offices, and on the go. Make sure the tool supports mobile, computer, and web versions. Tinrec has iOS, Android, and web versions, with very low latency for real-time transcription.
4. Privacy and Data Security
The case content lawyers handle is highly sensitive, so be sure to choose a trustworthy service. Tinrec has corresponding security mechanisms for transmission and storage. Check its privacy policy before use.
5. Is the Free Plan Sufficient?
If you just want to try the convenience of AI meeting notes, Tinrec's free plan provides basic transcription credits each month, enough for you to try a few meetings before deciding whether to upgrade.
