Most meeting-recording tools index transcribed text and audio separately. A user searching for a decision made three weeks ago in a 4-hour strategy session often has to toggle between transcript view and audio view — or cannot find it at all if it was only captured in a photographed slide or a manual marker. Unified search — querying across recordings, transcripts, images, markers, and notes in one field — is still unevenly implemented across the category.

Meetingminutes treats image attachments, manual markers, and inline notes as first-class searchable entities bound to specific timestamps. A query for "Q3 budget" returns the transcript excerpt, the whiteboard photo, the marker at 0:42:15, and any related note on a single results page.
Otter covers transcribed text and audio segments. Image attachments and manual markers do not appear in results. A slide photographed mid-call is inaccessible via the search bar.
Fathom indexes transcript content only. Audio thumbnails, screen recordings, and manual annotations fall outside its search surface.
Notion AI Meeting Notes searches text blocks and database properties. Linked attachments are retrievable, but audio waveform segments within those attachments are not independently searchable.
MeetGeek handles transcript and audio-clip retrieval. Markers exist for navigation but are not themselves searchable.
