Recall.ai is a developer platform that makes it easier to build products around online meetings and recorded conversations. Through a single API, you can access recordings, transcripts, participant information, and more than 100 other data points from platforms such as Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack Huddles, Webex, and GoTo Meeting. The platform offers several ways to capture conversations, depending on the product being developed.
Its Meeting Bot API allows a recording bot to join online calls, while the Desktop Recording SDK captures meetings and in-person conversations directly through a desktop application without adding a bot to the call. The Calendar API provides additional context, including meeting titles, participant names, and email addresses. One particularly useful feature is speaker identification.
Recall.ai captures each participant’s audio separately, helping produce transcripts that clearly show who said what, even when several people speak at the same time. You can also access real-time transcripts, individual audio and video streams, chat messages, and screen sharing data. These capabilities make Recall.ai useful for companies developing AI notetakers, sales intelligence platforms, recruitment software, healthcare tools, and interactive meeting assistants.
Its APIs also allow you to build agents that can send chat messages, display images, and stream audio during meetings. Interested in trying Recall.ai? Check out the deals and discounts on our marketplace to find savings on top SaaS tools!
