🟢 Turning ReCo On

To start transcribing with ReCo, follow these steps:

  1. Join a Google Meet call in your Chrome browser.
  2. Open ReCo from your Chrome extensions menu (puzzle piece icon in the top right of Chrome → click ReCo) - make sure you see both tabs (active Google Meet call and ReCo side by side in one window to ensure they're open via the same Chrome profile) - you can later separate them if needed
  3. In ReCo, click Start transcribing - that's it! 🥳

    💡 NOTE: Open the Transcripttab in ReCo to make sure the conversation is being captured - if not see 'Transcript not showing up' section below

👉 From this moment, ReCo will capture the conversation in real time and let you generate a report based on a template or your own criteria, requirements, and questions. You can also use Chat with ReCo at any time (even without a transcript) for ReCo to e.g.:

  • Suggest interview questions
  • Assess candidate–role fit
  • Draft outreach messages
  • Create Boolean search strings
  • and more

⚠️ Transcript not showing up


Problem


You clicked Start transcript, but nothing shows up.

Common Causes
  • Google Meet and ReCo are running in different Chrome profiles
  • The selected language in ReCo doesn’t match the language spoken
  • Captions (CC) in Google Meet were never enabled during the first setup
  • Permissions not granted
Solution(s)
  1. Make sure your Google Meet is open in the same Chrome profile as ReCo (e.g. private vs work Chrome profile) - easiest to ensure by opening both in one Chrome browser window.
  2. In a session view in ReCo select a language actually spoken in the meeting (top-right corner).
  3. In Google Meet, press C on your keyboard or click the CC (Closed Captions) button on a toolbar at the bottom to manually establish a connection.
  4. Refresh your Google Meet tab - Windows: Ctrl + R or F5 | Mac: Command (⌘) + R.
  5. Check permissions: Chrome → Extensions → Manage Extensions → ReCo → Details ensure “Automatically allow access on the following sites” is toggled ON.
