Free summarizers stop where your real work starts
Most free tools only summarize public links. The moment you have a private recording — a Zoom call, a client interview, raw footage — they either can't open it or lock uploads behind a paywall. And the ones that do work cap you at a handful of summaries a month, then ask you to pay.
Echosaw summarizes the media free tools can't touch: your own files, up to 5GB each, with no monthly quota counting down.
One upload. A complete, timestamped summary.
Every summary is grounded in the source with timestamps you can click — so you can verify any claim instead of trusting a black box. Skim the overview, jump to the moment that matters, or ask a follow-up question.
Real meeting. Real analysis. Real insights.
Explore a full Echosaw analysis of a recorded meeting: timestamped transcript, key moments, AI insights, generated outputs, and a chat grounded in the video.
- 1. Upload video, audio, images, or documents
- 2. Analyze transcripts, timelines, and key moments
- 3. Ask questions and get cited answers
Output formats:
What a summary actually looks like
A 48-minute product review call, summarized. Every line carries the timestamp it came from.
Timestamped summary

Full transcript
Speaker-separated, searchable, and aligned to the video — click any line to jump to that moment in the source.
Follow-up questions
“What did they say about pricing?” returns the answer plus the exact timestamp it was said, so you can verify it yourself.
More than a summary — a searchable media library
A free tool gives you one summary and forgets the video. Echosaw turns every file you summarize into part of a searchable, generative knowledge base. Search across thousands of hours by concept, not keywords. Detect people, objects, and on-screen text. Get reverse-geocoded location data and moderation evidence when you need it.
Summarize it once. Search it forever.
Searchable knowledge base
Search across your entire media library by concept. Find the exact moment across thousands of hours without remembering which file it was in.
Built into your workflow
Full REST API and MCP access on every plan — including the $9 Starter. Summarize and analyze media programmatically, or pipe results straight into the tools you already use.
