Uh-oh. You just finished a meeting and realized (too late) that you forgot to press the record button. You frantically jot down everything you discussed in the call, but you know you've missed something. 

With Backtrack, you'll never have to stress over forgetting to hit the record button again. An AI-powered meeting recorder, Backtrack automatically records your meetings—ensuring you always have access to call transcripts. 

Keep track of meeting details with Backtrack 

Whether you're chatting on Slack Huddles, Zoom, Google Meet, or any other meeting app—Backtrack will generate AI-powered transcripts and summaries. 

Backtrack continually operates in the background, extracting crucial points, key takeaways, and highlights from your discussions. No need to rush to capture action items. Instead, you can give your undivided attention to your call, secure in the knowledge that a meeting recording will be waiting when you're done.
