Fano Summary is an AI meeting assistant that automatically records, transcribes, and summarizes your meetings. It joins your video calls as a note-taker bot and delivers structured meeting notes so you can focus on the conversation.
Fano Summary works with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet. The bot joins your call as a visible participant and records the audio.
Currently, Fano Summary integrates with Microsoft Outlook. Connect it in Settings → Integration to enable automatic meeting detection and bot joining.
Yes. You can use Record Now to capture meetings manually, or Upload Meeting to process an existing recording. Calendar integration just makes things automatic.
Fano supports multiple languages for both transcription and summaries, including English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Cantonese. The transcript language is detected automatically, and you can set your preferred summary language in Settings.
Yes. The transcript captures whatever was spoken, and the summary is generated in the language you choose in Settings → Profile & Preferences → Summary Language. You can have a Cantonese transcript with an English summary.
On any meeting’s detail page, click the template dropdown above the summary (default is “General”) and select a different template. The summary regenerates instantly. See Meeting Summaries for all 9 built-in options.
Yes. Open Manage Templates from the template picker, create a template, and define your own sections — each with a title and an instruction telling the AI what to capture. You can also copy a Fano built-in template and edit it. Edits save automatically. See Custom Templates.
Yes. Click into the summary and type. Select text for a toolbar with heading levels, bold, italic, underline, strikethrough and lists, or use Markdown shortcuts like # and - . Changes save automatically, timestamp links keep working, and exports reflect your edits. Note that there’s no version history — the original AI draft can’t be restored once you edit it. See Editing Summaries.
Yes. Open that meeting’s menu and choose Recap Language, then pick English, Traditional Chinese or Simplified Chinese. Your own edits carry over. Be aware this replaces the current summary and there’s no one-click undo, so export anything you want to keep first. See Recap Language.
Yes. Open the meeting’s menu → Export, then pick PDF (.pdf), Word (.docx) or Markdown (.md). Transcripts can be exported too. The export reflects the template, language and edits currently applied. See Exporting & Sharing.
Click the search icon in the Meeting sidebar header. It covers all of your recorded meetings, and you can narrow by People or Date. Use ↑ ↓ to move through results and to open one. See Search & Tags.
Yes, with tags. Click the + next to the participant avatars in a meeting header, then pick or create a tag. To browse, click the # icon next to Home — the Tags panel lists every tag with its meeting count, and clicking one shows those meetings grouped by date. Tags are private to you — nobody else in your workspace sees them. See Search & Tags.
Click the timestamp on that summary point and playback jumps to that moment. Clicking a transcript segment does the same thing. See Audio & Timestamps.
Yes. Open the meeting, click the three-dot menu (⋯), and select Delete. This removes the meeting, its transcript, summary, and audio permanentlyexport anything you need first. Deleting doesn’t refund the minutes the meeting used.
Your meetings are visible only to you within your Fano Summary account. Company admins can manage organizational settings but do not have access to individual meeting content.
Minutes are counted based on the total duration of recorded meetings. A 30-minute meeting uses 30 minutes regardless of how many participants were on the call. Your monthly allocation resets on the date shown in Settings → Usage.
New meetings will not be recorded until your usage resets at the next billing cycle. Existing recordings, summaries, and transcripts remain accessible. Contact your admin for a plan upgrade if needed.
Yes. The Fano note-taker bot joins as a visible participant in the meeting. All attendees can see it in the participant list. We recommend informing participants about the recording as a best practice.
