Klarword

Klarword is designed for a computer. You can read these pages here, but to transcribe, open the site on a desktop or laptop: the model weighs hundreds of megabytes and the computation runs on your machine.

Public sector and local government

Meeting minutes without an outside provider

A recorded council, committee or team meeting holds the words of elected members, staff and sometimes residents. Transcribing them on the officer's computer avoids a service contract, a data transfer and a sovereignty question.

What matters to you

Hosted on your premises

Klarword deploys on the organisation's intranet as a plain static site, with no database and no outside connection.

No computer to equip

Staff open it in the browser they already have, with no installation and no administrator rights.

Accessible videos

SRT and WebVTT subtitles make published videos accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing people.

Situations

  • Council meetings
  • Committees and team meetings
  • Public meetings and consultations
  • Subtitling videos published by the organisation

Practical advice

  • For minutes, export to Word with named speakers, then format in your usual template.
  • The Accurate model on a computer with a graphics card gives the best results on long meetings.
  • The self-hosted licence covers every member of staff.
