Why record & transcribe audio with Rewind?
90% of memories are forgotten after a week. Meetings are no exception. The content of discussions, debates, and decisions are often lost forever as soon as a meeting is over. With Rewind, you never have to worry about losing this content again. Rewind can capture the content of meetings including everything that is said, and everything that is shared visually. All of the content is searchable. You can go back to the exact moment in a meeting you are looking for by simply searching for a word that was said, or a word that appeared on your screen.
How does it work?
There are two ways to record & transcribe audio with Rewind: (1) manually, and/or (2) when a meeting starts.
To do it manually, click the Rewind logo in the upper-right corner of the menu bar. Select "Resume Microphone Capture" and "Resume Speaker Capture":
In addition, whenever you join a meeting, Rewind will prompt you and ask if you want to record audio (which will resume both Microphone Capture and Speaker Capture):
You can always change this in Settings:
Which apps do you support?
All of them.
Which video conferencing tools do you support?
All of them.
Do I need to be the meeting host?
No, anyone can record a meeting using Rewind.
How do I record what other people say in a meeting?
Click on "Resume Speaker Capture". There are limitations of this feature that you should be aware of.
What data is captured?
Rewind records & transcribes both sides of a conversation. See: How do I change which microphone Rewind records & transcribes?
