Chat With Your Meetings

Use Echo AI to ask questions about your recorded meetings.

Introduction

Echo is NoteWave's AI assistant that helps you find information, extract insights, and answer questions about your meeting transcripts. Each meeting has its own dedicated Echo conversation.

What is Echo?

Echo is an AI-powered chat interface that has complete knowledge of your meeting transcript, summary, and metadata.

Echo understands:

  • Full word-for-word transcript of the meeting
  • Meeting summary and key discussion points
  • Who attended and what each person said
  • Meeting metadata (date, time, duration)
  • Action items and decisions made
Pro Plan Feature
Echo AI chat is available on Pro and Business plans. Free plan users see the Echo interface with an upgrade prompt.

One Meeting at a Time

Each meeting has its own separate Echo conversation. Echo only knows about the specific meeting you're currently viewing—it cannot answer questions about other meetings.

Why This Design?

Focused context ensures accurate answers and prevents confusion between different meetings.

Conversation History

Your Echo conversation is saved per meeting. Return anytime to continue the discussion.

How to Use Echo

Access Echo from any transcript page using the footer input bar or quick action buttons.

Two ways to start:

  1. Footer Input - Type your question in the dark input bar at the bottom of the transcript page, then press Enter or click Send
  2. Quick Actions - Click pre-defined buttons like "Summarize meeting", "What are the action items?", or "What key decisions were made?"

When you send a message, the Echo panel opens on the right side of the screen, showing your conversation.

Voice Input

Echo supports voice-to-text input powered by ElevenLabs V2 Realtime API for hands-free questions.

How to use voice:

  1. Click the microphone icon in the Echo input field
  2. Speak your question naturally
  3. Real-time transcription appears as you speak
  4. Click Stop when finished, then Send

Example Questions

Echo can answer a wide range of questions about your meeting. Here are some examples:

Information Retrieval
  • • "What did John say about the budget?"
  • • "When is the project deadline?"
  • • "Who was assigned to the marketing task?"
Analysis & Insights
  • • "Summarize the key decisions"
  • • "What were the main concerns discussed?"
  • • "List all the action items mentioned"

Echo Panel Features

The Echo panel provides a modern chat interface with several helpful features.

  • Typewriter Effect - Responses appear word-by-word for a natural reading experience
  • Thinking Animation - See a 4-step progress indicator while Echo processes your question
  • Markdown Support - Responses are formatted with headers, lists, and emphasis
  • Conversation History - All your questions and Echo's answers are saved

Privacy & Sharing

Your Echo conversations are private to you. When you share a transcript with others:

Private Conversations
Each user has their own separate Echo chat history. Sharing a transcript with colleagues does NOT share your Echo conversations with them—they start fresh.
