Project Overview

A company running a real-time audio and video communication product wanted to add AI features its users were starting to expect: live captions, transcripts after every meeting and short summaries with decisions and action items.

ProsperaSoft integrated streaming speech recognition into the media pipeline, built a transcript service with speaker attribution, and used a language model to generate summaries, action items and searchable meeting notes.

Core Features

  • Live Captions: streaming transcription shown to participants during the call
  • Speaker Attribution: transcripts labelled by participant using the platform's audio tracks
  • AI Summaries: summaries, decisions and action items generated when the meeting ends
  • Meeting Search: transcripts indexed so users can search what was said across meetings

Client Challenges

  • Real-Time Constraints: captions had to appear quickly without affecting call quality
  • Scale: many concurrent meetings meant transcription had to scale up and down with usage
  • Accuracy: domain terms, accents and cross-talk reduce recognition accuracy
  • Privacy: users needed control over recording, transcripts and retention

Key Highlights

Live and Accessible:

    Captions make meetings accessible as they happen.

  • Streaming recognition with partial and final results
  • Captions displayed per speaker in the client apps

Useful After the Call:

    Every meeting produces notes people actually read.

  • Summaries, decisions and action items
  • Shareable notes linked to the recording

Built for Scale:

    Transcription workers scale with meeting load.

  • Separate media and AI services
  • Queues and autoscaling for summary generation

Privacy by Design:

    Users and admins stay in control.

  • Consent prompts and visible recording state
  • Retention settings and deletion on request

Results & Benefits

  • Media Integration: audio tapped from the WebRTC media server per participant track
  • Speech Recognition: streaming speech-to-text with custom vocabulary for domain terms
  • Language Model: summaries and action items generated from the full transcript with structured output
  • Isolation: AI processing separated from the media path so calls stay stable
  • Cost Control: transcription only when enabled, summaries generated once per meeting
  • Security: encrypted storage and access limited to meeting participants
  • Competitive Features: the product gained AI features users compare when choosing a meeting tool
  • Accessibility: live captions help participants in noisy environments and with hearing impairments
  • Productivity: users get meeting notes and action items without writing them
