1.Monitors new reply with transcription
Integrate VideoAsk and transcription tools to capture respondent context and trigger community publishing when a new reply arrives.
Create community post from video response with transcript
Automatically monitor video responses with transcription across VideoAsk and community tools. Create and update when video replies arrive, transcripts generate, or respondent IDs appearβso you can publish community topics, record post links, and reduce manual tracking.
How this automation accelerates community posting with traceable links
When video replies land in separate inboxes and inbox context gets lost, moderation slows and posts go out with missing context. This automation captures transcript details and publishes a Circle topic and updates Zapier Tables with the post identifierβso your team can respond faster.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism β I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder
We don't just want to patch holes; we want to build scalable, future-proof systems. Zapier is helping us do that.
Allen Lai, Head of Customer Experience
