At tl;dv, we're always dedicated to enhancing your meeting experience, making it as seamless and efficient as possible. We've heard your valuable feedback regarding our recording bot and its participation during meetings. You asked for a smoother, less intrusive recording process, and we've got exciting news to share!

Bot-free recordings via Zapier integrations

While a bot-free recording option isn't yet available within tl;dv native functionalities, we've leveraged Zapier integrations to provide a workaround that achieves the same seamless recording result you've been hoping for.

How does it work? In short, you are now be able to get direct recordings from meeting providers (for instance, "Zoom cloud recordings" and "Google Recordings") and upload these files automatically to tl;dv. At tl;dv, you'll be then able to see the transcript, AI notes, create clips, reels and much more.

Introducing the "Upload Recording" Zapier Action

  • Our integration with Zapier now offers a powerful solution—the "Upload Recording" action. With this integration, every time you record or save a video or audio file on selected apps (like Zoom, Google Drive, OpenPhone, RingCentral, and more) it will automatically be sent to tl;dv.

  • Our algorithms will then transcribe and summarize the content, and it will be available on your tl;dv library as any other meeting.

  • This eliminates the need for our bot to join the meeting as a participant, ensuring a smoother recording experience for your team.

Setting Up Your tl;dv "Upload Recording" Action

To get started, follow these simple steps:

  1. Access Your Integration Page at tl;dv: Log in to your tl;dv account and head to the integration's page.

  2. Choose Your Workflow: Select from our range of existing templates for automated workflows, designed to suit various needs and preferences.

  3. Alternatively, create a Custom Workflow: You can also opt to craft your custom workflow, and tailor it to align perfectly with your unique requirements. To do so, click on "Create workflow from scratch" and follow the Zapier setup process.

💡 For more detailed instructions and insights on setting up custom workflows, refer to our comprehensive Zapier integration guide.

Get ready to revolutionize your meeting recording experience, effortlessly syncing your recordings and unlocking tl;dv's powerful transcription and summarization features—all with the magic of Zapier.

Let's make your meetings even more productive and insightful—seamlessly. 🎉
