How do I get AI notes from Webex, Slack huddles or WhatsApp calls?
Short answer
Record the call from your computer with the Acta desktop app for Windows or Mac. Open Acta, click Record on this device, then Start recording: Acta finds the meeting app and the meeting's name by itself, records the meeting's sound and your microphone, and writes the transcript, summary and action items afterwards.

Good to know
Does Acta notice these calls by itself?
It notices Zoom and Microsoft Teams app meetings by itself. For other calling apps, start the recording from Acta.
What does the desktop app record?
The meeting's sound, meaning everything you hear through the computer, and your microphone. Never your screen.
