Dailies vs TranskriptorThe Transkriptor alternative for turning what you said in a call into video to post
Transkriptor and Dailies can start from the same call and come away with different things. Transkriptor is a transcription tool: from a file, a YouTube link or a meeting, it writes the transcript, a summary and the action items, and it exports subtitle files. Dailies is a Chrome extension that records the call you hold on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Zoom and delivers up to eight captioned vertical shorts a few minutes after it ends. If text is what you need, Transkriptor is built for it. If you need video to post, that is the one thing Dailies does.

What Transkriptor does
Transkriptor is an AI transcription tool that turns audio, video and meetings into text, summaries and action items, in more than 100 languages according to its site. It takes uploaded audio or video files and YouTube links. For meetings it offers several ways in. A meeting bot joins your online meetings, by invitation or through a connected calendar. A desktop app for Windows and Mac detects when a meeting starts and, its site says, records the audio of a Zoom, Teams or Google Meet call with no bot joining. A Chrome extension records your screen, your camera or both, with the sound of your microphone, of the system or both. Mobile apps for Android and iOS record voice. An AI assistant answers questions about a transcript or summarises it, and integrations connect Transkriptor to CRMs, storage and telephony tools. Its subtitle generator delivers SRT files from a file or a YouTube link, for YouTube, TikTok or elsewhere. Its website exists in about twenty languages, French among them.
Where Dailies and Transkriptor differ
Text to read, or video to post
What Transkriptor delivers is written: a transcript, a summary, action items, and subtitles as SRT files. We found no clip, highlight or vertical video feature on the pages we read. Dailies delivers video: up to eight vertical 9:16 shorts per call, cut from the passages it picks itself, reframed on whoever speaks, with silences, filler words and false starts removed.
A subtitle file, or captions already in the picture
Transkriptor’s subtitle generator gives you an SRT file to add to a video on YouTube, TikTok or anywhere else; we found no captions burned into a video on the pages we read. With Dailies there is no file to attach: animated captions are burned into each short, in one of fifteen styles, under a line that says which question the short answers.
Three ways into the call, or one
Transkriptor has three ways into a meeting: a bot that joins it, a desktop app described as recording its audio without a bot, and a Chrome extension that records screen and camera. Dailies has one: a Chrome extension that records the call tab, your microphone and your webcam, the webcam on a track of its own, so that a short can show you full screen. No bot joins the call.
What Transkriptor does that Dailies does not
Transcripts, summaries and action items, an assistant to question them, subtitle files in more than 100 languages, uploads and YouTube links as input, mobile apps, and integrations with CRMs and storage tools. Dailies does none of that: it writes no notes, no summary and no action items, does not work on a file you upload, and only makes shorts from the calls it records in Chrome.
Questions people ask
Can Transkriptor make video clips or shorts from a meeting?
We found no clip, highlight or vertical video feature on the Transkriptor pages we read. Its site describes transcripts, summaries, action items and subtitle files. Dailies makes up to eight captioned vertical shorts from each call it records.
Does Transkriptor record meetings without a bot?
Yes, with its desktop app. Transkriptor’s site says the app for Windows and Mac detects when a meeting starts and records the audio of a Zoom, Teams or Google Meet call with no bot joining. A meeting bot also exists, which joins your online meetings. Dailies records from Chrome, with no bot in the call.
Does Transkriptor burn subtitles into a video?
Its subtitle generator delivers SRT files, from an uploaded file or a YouTube link, to use on YouTube, TikTok or elsewhere. We found no burned-in or animated captions on the pages we read. Dailies burns animated captions into every short, in one of fifteen styles.
Does Transkriptor work in French?
Its site announces more than 100 languages and has a French version, but we did not read the list of languages itself, so we cannot confirm French transcription from the pages we read. Dailies handles calls in French, in English and in both mixed.
Does Dailies replace Transkriptor?
No. Dailies writes no meeting notes, summaries or action items: it makes shorts. If you need a written record of a call and video to post from it, the two tools do different jobs.
Your next call already holds your next shorts.
Add Dailies to Chrome, record the call you were going to have anyway, and watch its shorts a few minutes after you hang up.
