What Rec is
Rec gives software agents a way to record feature demos and share them with a team. Its local recorder opens Chromium on the user's computer, captures video, and uploads it to a Rec workspace. A Chrome extension lets people record a tab, screen, camera, and microphone into the same workspace. Rec provides transcripts, summaries, chapters, semantic search, and chat with videos, plus a hosted MCP server for library search, transcript and summary access, and recording-session management. Recordings can be shared through public links that play in a browser without a Rec account, embedded, or sent to Slack. Each workspace receives 30 free credits monthly. Playback and transcription use 1 credit per minute; AI voiceovers and language dubs use 2 credits per video minute, and the pricing page lists dubs in five languages. Recording has no time limit, but AI transcription covers recordings up to an hour. Rec says recordings are encrypted and private recordings are visible only to the user and workspace. Paid plans include 10.00 USD, 20.00 USD, and $50 a month options.
