who have the background knowledge to effectively summarize the conversation
This sounds like it might make more sense for the people having the conversation to do, perhaps at the end (possibly with the recorder prompting “What were the essential points in this discussion?”).
But part of the problem aiming to be solved here is “the people who’s conversations you want to record are busy, and don’t actually get much direct benefit from having recorded or summarized their conversation, and one of the primary problems is anxiety about writing it up in a way that won’t get misconstrued or turn out to be wrong later”, and the whole point is to outsource the executive function to someone else.
And the executive function is actually a fairly high bar.
