Record a WhatsApp call
Record WhatsApp voice or video calls from WhatsApp Desktop or Web with a transcript and AI summary. Bot recorders can't do this; SeaMeet records the app window.
Recording calls may require the consent of every participant where you or they are located. Tell people you are recording.
How it works
- Start the call in the WhatsApp desktop app.
- Click Record. Chrome asks what to share: pick the WhatsApp window and keep "Share system audio" on — works on Windows and on a recent macOS Chrome (which captures your whole system audio).
- Stop when done — transcript, AI summary and Meeting Memory in seconds. Calling in WhatsApp Web in the browser instead? Use Record any web page.
What can be captured

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Windows | Chrome | No | Yes | Yes — Pick the app window and keep "Share system audio" on. |
| Windows | Edge | No | Yes | Yes |
| macOS | Chrome | No | Yes | Yes — macOS: pick the app window and keep "Share system audio" on — recent Chrome captures your whole system audio (everything playing). |
| macOS | Safari | No | No | No — Safari on macOS has no audio capture — use Chrome, or SeaMeet Desktop. |
| ChromeOS | Chrome | No | No | Yes — Share the entire screen with system audio. |
| Linux | Chrome | No | No | No — Linux browsers: mic-only; use SeaMeet Desktop for app audio. |
FAQ
Does the other person get notified?
No notification is sent by SeaMeet or WhatsApp. You should still tell them you are recording.
Does SeaMeet join my call as a bot?
No. SeaMeet records the audio your browser already plays — nothing joins the call, no banner appears, no one is notified by us.
What does the free plan include?
A 6-hour lifetime live-transcription pool, the first 15 minutes of every transcript revealed, 2 GB of storage for 30 days. Sync Pro ($12.99/mo billed annually) removes the caps.
What happens after the recording?
You get the transcript, an AI summary with action items, and — as you record more — a Meeting Memory wiki: a page per person, company and topic that compounds across meetings.
