MEET
The decision is on tape. The tape is yours.
Record a call or a meeting, and the recording is written to your own storage and posted back in the conversation. Everyone in the call can see it’s being recorded.
Recordings never leave your storage.1

Overview
Nobody is recorded silently.
Starting a recording needs a confirm, and every participant sees the REC indicator for as long as it runs.
It keeps going if you drop.
The recording continues if the person who started it leaves, and stops when the call ends.
Back in the conversation.
When the file is ready it appears in the chat as a playable card, and in My recordings.
