Record Online Classes: Student and Teacher Guide
Online classes deliver material that students may need to revisit before an exam or assignment. Instructors benefit from a searchable record of what was taught in each session. RecordMeeting records the full class video, produces a word-for-word transcript, and generates a summary of the session's main topics. Students can search the transcript for a specific concept instead of scrubbing through video.

Why RecordMeeting
Built for the way teams work
Students Review Any Part of the Lesson
A student who missed the explanation of a concept can search the transcript for the relevant term and jump directly to that moment in the video. No need to watch the full recording. The transcript acts as a searchable index of the entire lesson, making review far more efficient than note-based studying alone.
Teachers Build a Reusable Class Library
Over a semester, recordings accumulate into a library of class sessions. Teachers can reference past explanations, identify which topics generate the most questions, and share recordings with students who need additional support. Substitute teachers or teaching assistants can review previous sessions to maintain continuity.
Works on Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams
Online classes run on every major video platform. RecordMeeting records from the same Chrome extension regardless of whether the class is on Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams. All sessions land in one workspace. No separate tools, no re-configuration per platform.

Transcript in 50 Plus Languages
Classes taught in languages other than English are transcribed accurately. RecordMeeting supports 50 plus languages with speaker-labeled transcription. International students and ESL learners benefit from a text version of the lesson to review at their own pace.
No Bot Joins the Class
Some recording tools add a visible bot to the participant list, which can distract students or create confusion. RecordMeeting records from the teacher's browser tab. The participant list shows only real attendees. The recording is invisible to the class unless the teacher explicitly shares it.
"I use it for Google Meet calls - super convenient: one click and the meeting is recorded, and afterwards you automatically get a transcript in a Google Doc with speaker labels and timestamps. A big plus for privacy: it doesn’t add any “bots” to the participant list, everything stays clean and professional. Search across meetings and 2×/3× playback are must-haves to quickly pull out decisions and action items. A real lifesaver for work, highly recommend!"
