Sometimes, you need to record a meeting without actually joining it—whether it’s because of a scheduling conflict, a busy day, or just wanting to review the discussion later without actively participating. While most video conferencing platforms require you to be present to initiate a recording, there are ways to capture meeting audio and video without entering the session yourself.
In this guide, we’ll explore the best methods to record a meeting without joining and introduce a powerful AI tool to transcribe and summarize your recordings automatically.
