Norwegian meetings, with the referat already written
Send a bot to Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, upload a recording, or record in the browser or the app. MinutesMaster writes a Norwegian transcript with speaker names and a møtereferat with decisions and tasks — in Norwegian, English or any of 38 languages.

From a Norwegian meeting to a referat you can send
Someone always ends up writing the referat. MinutesMaster transcribes the Norwegian recording, separates the speakers by voice and writes structured minutes: summary, agenda, decisions, tasks with owners and the next meeting. Æ, ø and å are kept in the transcript and in every export.
Norwegians speak their own dialect at work, and written Norwegian has two standards. MinutesMaster has one Norwegian setting: it turns spoken Norwegian into written text and writes the minutes in Norwegian, with no separate Bokmål or Nynorsk option. How well a broad dialect comes through depends on the recording, so try a typical meeting with the free credits first.
Many Norwegian companies also work in English. Mixed-language meetings stay in one transcript without a language setting, and the minutes or the full transcript can be translated into English or any other of the 38 languages. Recordings are never used to train AI models.
Ingrid Hansen (09:18) — Kunden ønsker leveransen to uker tidligere, så vi må prioritere betalingsmodulen.
Ole Johansen (09:52) — Greit, jeg flytter to utviklere dit og sender en oppdatert plan på fredag.
Betalingsmodulen prioriteres, slik at leveransen kan skje to uker tidligere.
Ole Johansen → flytte to utviklere til betalingsmodulen og sende oppdatert plan på fredag
In English: the payment module is prioritised so the delivery can come two weeks earlier; Ole Johansen moves two developers and sends an updated plan on Friday.
How Norwegian transcription works
Four steps from a call or a lydopptak to a referat.
- 1
Add the meeting
Send the bot with a Teams, Zoom or Google Meet link, upload audio or video up to 2 GB, record in the browser or the mobile app, or paste a YouTube or Google Drive link.
- 2
Choose the minutes language
Auto keeps the referat in Norwegian. Pick English for international colleagues — or any other of the 38 languages.
- 3
Review names and tasks
Bot recordings take names from the meeting participants; for uploads, rename each speaker once. Edit decisions and tasks before you send the referat.
- 4
Export, share or ask
Download Word or PDF, share the meeting in a team workspace, and ask questions about it in Norwegian or English.
What you get from a Norwegian meeting
A referat for the team, a transcript for the record, a translation for everyone else.
Norwegian and English in one meeting
Meetings that switch to English for a guest or a technical topic are transcribed without choosing a language in advance.
Æ, ø and å kept
Norwegian letters stay intact in the transcript, the minutes and the PDF, Word, TXT, JSON, SRT and VTT exports.
Speakers separated by voice
Each voice gets its own label; names from the meeting, or the ones you type, are used everywhere.
A møtereferat structure
Attendees, agenda, decisions, tasks with owners and the next meeting, plus a detailed narrative version.
Translation into 38 languages
Translate the referat or the full transcript and keep the Norwegian original next to each version.
Exports for each reader
DOCX for editing, PDF for sending, TXT and JSON for other tools, and SRT or VTT for videos you publish.
Good to know for Norwegian recordings
What Norwegian teams and organisations ask about.
Transkribering av lydopptak
Interviews, lectures and dictated notes become a timestamped transcript with speaker labels, ready to edit in Word.
Styremøte and årsmøte
The Board / committee meeting template adds attendance and quorum, motions and resolutions, and reports received — a draft protokoll for the board members to check and sign.
Transkribering in Teams
The bot joins through the meeting link like any guest; someone admits it from the lobby if the organiser requires it. If external guests are blocked, upload a recording instead.
Dialects and Nynorsk
There is one Norwegian setting for all dialects and no Nynorsk option. Use the free 2.5 hours on a typical meeting to see the result before you rely on it.
Scandinavian colleagues
Danish and Swedish are supported too, and mixed-language meetings need no setting. Closely related languages in one conversation are the hardest case, so test with one of your own recordings.
Frequently asked questions
- Can MinutesMaster transcribe Norwegian audio to text?
- Yes. Upload a recording, paste a YouTube or Google Drive link, or send the bot to a meeting. You get a Norwegian transcript with speakers separated by voice and timestamps, plus a referat with decisions and tasks.
- Is the text written in Bokmål or Nynorsk?
- MinutesMaster has one Norwegian setting, with no separate Bokmål or Nynorsk option. If your organisation writes in Nynorsk, try a sample with the free credits before you rely on it.
- Does it understand Norwegian dialects?
- All dialects go through the same Norwegian transcription. Results depend on the recording and how broad the dialect is, so try a typical meeting with the 2.5 free hours first.
- Can I get the minutes in English?
- Yes. Choose English as the minutes language, or translate the finished referat and transcript later. The Norwegian original stays available.
- Can it join our Teams meetings?
- Yes. Paste the Teams link to send the bot; someone admits it from the lobby if the organiser requires it. Google Meet works the same way, and for Zoom you connect your Zoom account once.
- How much does it cost?
- 1 credit covers 30 minutes of audio. New accounts get 5 free credits (2.5 hours) once, with no credit card; then credit packs from €9, or Pro (€19 a month) and Business (€49 a month).
- Is my recording used to train AI?
- No. MinutesMaster never uses recordings, transcripts or minutes to train AI models. It is hosted in Europe under the GDPR, and you can delete any meeting or your whole account at any time.
