v1.2.2Feature

Compact Captions, Ask AI, and a Better Meeting Recap

Follow meetings with a compact caption bar that stays out of the way, ask questions during or after a meeting, and share or export a complete recap.

Version 1.2.2 is one of our biggest updates yet. It introduces a lighter way to follow captions, interactive meeting Q&A with Ask AI, and a more complete experience for reviewing, exporting, and sharing meetings.

Added

  • Compact caption bar. Collapse the full panel into a streamlined bar that keeps current captions visible while covering much less of your meeting. Expand it again whenever you need the full transcript, notes, or AI tools.

  • Ask AI for meeting Q&A. Ask about key points, decisions, action items, or unresolved questions while a meeting is in progress. After the meeting, open the saved session to keep asking questions and follow up on earlier answers.
  • Answers with transcript references. Ask AI grounds its answers in the meeting transcript and includes references you can click to jump directly to the relevant passage.

  • Post-meeting recap card. After you finish a meeting, quickly review its duration and content, generate an AI Summary, open the full session, or move straight to sharing and exporting.
  • Shareable meeting links. Share the AI Summary, the transcript, or both. Manage all shared links from your history and stop sharing at any time.
  • Flexible meeting exports. Export meetings as Markdown or TXT, with options to include timestamps, notes, and the AI Summary.

Improved

  • More reliable long meetings. Pause, resume, finish, and reconnection flows have been strengthened to reduce stuck controls, stalled connections, and incorrect session states during longer meetings.
  • More accurate meeting duration. Time spent paused, reconnecting, or waiting for a connection is no longer counted as active meeting time.
  • More natural caption formatting. Improved English spacing, punctuation, and mixed-language text joining make live captions and exported transcripts easier to read.
  • More reliable downloads. Transcript, summary, and recap downloads now use a more dependable flow and show a clear message if a download fails.
  • Cleaner history. Empty sessions without usable captions no longer clutter your meeting history.
  • Saved display preferences. SonicMeet now remembers the caption window size and display settings, with additional larger font-size options.

Notes

  • Ask AI answers questions using the meeting transcript captured so far.
  • Ask AI and AI Summary share the same monthly AI Credits.
  • Anyone with a public share link can view the meeting content included in that link.

Improved Caption Timestamps and Microphone Input Selection

Caption timestamps are clearer, caption display has been refined, and you can now choose a microphone input source from caption settings.

This update polishes the caption reading experience and gives you direct control over which microphone SonicMeet listens to.

Improved

  • Clearer caption timestamps. Caption timestamps have been refined so timing information is easier to read while following a live meeting.
  • Better caption display. Caption rendering has been optimized for a cleaner, more comfortable viewing experience.

Added

  • Microphone input selection. You can now choose the microphone input source in caption settings. SonicMeet still uses the system default microphone by default, but you can manually switch to another input at any time.
v1.1.5Feature

Multilingual Profanity Filter and Custom Vocabulary

Mask profanity in captions across languages, and improve recognition accuracy with your own custom vocabulary.

profanity-filter custom-vocabulary captions accuracy team

This update adds two new ways to control what your captions show and how accurately they capture the words that matter to you.

Added

  • Multilingual profanity filter. Mask profane words in captions across multiple languages. When the filter is on, choose between two modes: filter live captions only, or filter both live captions and saved transcripts.
  • Custom vocabulary. Add your own words — product names, people, brand names, company names, or domain-specific terms — so SonicMeet recognizes them more accurately. On Team and Enterprise plans, admins and owners can manage a shared vocabulary list at the organization level, which automatically applies to every member.

Notes

  • The profanity filter is off by default.
v1.1.4Improved

Improved RTL Display and Ultra-Compact Captions

RTL display has been improved, and the caption area now enters an ultra-compact mode at its smallest size.
