Recall.ai provides a unified API that enables developers to programmatically record, transcribe, and extract metadata from meetings across major video conferencing platforms. The API supports Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Slack Huddles, Webex, and GoTo Meeting. It offers three core products: Meeting Bot API : A bot joins the call to record video, audio, and transcripts. Best when explicit consent is needed or for building AI agents. Desktop Recording SDK : Records meetings through a desktop app without a bot in the call, providing a stealthier experience. Calendar API : Retrieves meeting metadata such as participant emails, meeting titles, and more. Additionally, a Mobile Recording SDK is listed as "Coming Soon" for recording in person meetings and phone calls. Key features include 100% accurate speaker identification (capturing each person's audio separately for perfect diarization) and professional quality recordings that can switch between speaker and gallery view, avoiding the screen recording look of competitors.
