🌐 Ways to Manage Meeting Language

Fireflies provides multiple ways to manage transcription language based on your meeting type and workflow.

• Set a Default Language: Apply one transcription language to all future meetings. This is useful if your team primarily speaks the same language.

• Auto Language Detection: Want Fireflies to pick the right language automatically? It detects and transcribes the primary language spoken in the meeting—no manual selection needed.

• Change Language for a Specific Meeting: Update the transcription language for a single upcoming meeting without affecting your default setting. This only applies to meetings you own or are hosting

• Multi-Language Mode: Automatically detect and transcribe multiple spoken languages within the same meeting. This is ideal for multilingual conversations or meetings where speakers switch languages.
