Quickstart
Get up and running with the Menutes API in three steps.
Step 1: Create an API Key
Go to Settings → API Keys and create a new key.
Copy your API key immediately — it will only be shown once.
Step 2: List Your Recordings
curl https://app.menutes.com/api/v1/recordings \
-H "Authorization: Bearer mnts_your_key_here"
Response:
{
"recordings": [
{
"id": "cmmnftxas0047i70b83694d2o",
"meetingTitle": "Weekly Standup",
"status": "COMPLETED",
"duration": 1941,
"speakerCount": 3,
"createdAt": "2026-03-12T12:22:13.973Z"
}
],
"pagination": {
"page": 1,
"limit": 20,
"total": 1
}
}
Step 3: Get a Transcript
Use a recording ID from the previous response:
curl https://app.menutes.com/api/v1/recordings/cmmnftxas0047i70b83694d2o/content \
-H "Authorization: Bearer mnts_your_key_here"
Response:
{
"transcription": "[Speaker 1 @ 0:00]: Good morning everyone...",
"summary": "## Meeting Summary\n\n### Key Discussion Points\n...",
"transcriptSegments": [
{
"speaker": "Speaker 1",
"text": "Good morning everyone",
"startTime": 0,
"endTime": 3
}
],
"speakerNames": {
"Speaker 1": "Markus",
"Speaker 2": "Ralf"
},
"notes": null
}
