Record a Meeting
- As the host or a co-host, click Record in the control bar.
- Everyone sees "{name} started recording this meeting" and a Recording badge.
- Click Stop recording when done.
The whole meeting is recorded server-side (speaker view), so it keeps recording even if your own connection drops. Recording also stops when the host leaves or the meeting is ended for everyone.
Auto-Record
Turn on Auto-record meeting when scheduling (or in the lobby's Meeting settings) to start recording as soon as the host joins.
Finding Recordings
- meet.vinsi.ai → meeting card ⋮ → Recording — every recording of that meeting.
- Avatar menu → Recordings — every recording you made, newest first.
- CRM → Admin → Team Settings → Video Meetings → Recording.
- The contact's Video Meetings tab in the CRM.
Play recordings in the page or click Download. Links expire after an hour — refresh the page to renew them. A new recording can take a minute to appear after you stop.
AI Summaries
- As the host or a co-host, click AI summary. Everyone sees Transcribing for AI summary.
- Have your meeting as usual.
- Click Stop AI, then Stop & generate summary.
The summary is saved to the meeting and emailed to you as Meeting summary: {title}. If you forget to stop, it's generated automatically once the meeting ends or goes quiet for 15 minutes.
AI summary is separate from recording — start both if you want the video and the summary. Let participants know before transcribing.
Reading a Summary
Open the meeting card's ⋮ → Summary (or Summary in the CRM). Summaries include Summary, Key points, Decisions, and Action items.
