In the browser
Record a meeting (on Meetings, a project's Meetings tab or a review meeting's page) records your microphone and, for an online meeting in the same browser, the meeting tab's sound (pick the tab and tick Also share tab audio). Say how people were told it is recorded; that is kept as consent evidence.
- A small dock shows the time and sound level, and keeps recording while you move around Tracewright.
- Audio is sent every 30 seconds, so a dropped connection loses nothing that already arrived. Pause and resume as needed.
With the browser extension
The Tracewright Recorder extension for Chrome and Edge records a meeting tab (Teams, Google Meet or Zoom in the browser) and your microphone with one click, without Tracewright open. Install it from Account → Plug-ins (or IT installs it for everyone), press Connect my account, then on the meeting tab click the icon, say how people were told, and Start. Closing the tab stops and sends it.
With the desktop app
The desktop tray app (Windows, macOS and Linux) notices when a meeting starts in Teams, Zoom, Webex or Meet and offers to record it. See Desktop app and plug-ins.
Filing
When you stop, Tracewright files the recording to its project when it is sure (you started it from the project, it is a Teams meeting linked to the project, a review meeting you attend was running, or its name contains the project code). Anything else waits in Meetings → Inbox. Nothing is sent to a transcription model before a recording is filed.
Who spoke
The transcript tells voices apart, not who they are. The meeting opens on Who spoke: each speaker with clips to play and a suggestion with its reason (the Teams name, a name the speaker gave, being addressed by name, or that you recorded it). Confirm, choose someone else, add a guest, merge two labels that are one person, or move a single line.
Drafting waits until every speaker is confirmed, because each draft cites who said it. A lead can Draft anyway; the source records that.
