Recall.ai is a developer infrastructure company providing a unified API for meeting recording, enabling developers to capture recordings, transcripts, and metadata from virtual meetings across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack Huddles, Webex, desktop apps, phone calls, and in-person conversations. Founded in 2022 as a pivot from Perfect Recall (YC W20), the platform eliminates the need for companies to build their own recording infrastructure — a project typically requiring 6–12 months and a team of 5. The company serves 3,000+ companies and reached ~$31M ARR as of January 2026, growing 211% YoY.
