Does RecordX work with the free Webex plan?

Yes. Both capture paths - Chrome extension and calendar auto-join bot - work on the free Webex tier. Free Webex meetings cap at 40 minutes; the recording ends when Webex ends the call.

Does the bot show up on the Webex participant list?

Yes. The Recall.ai bot joins as "RecordX Notetaker" so every participant sees a recorder is present. Extension capture stays invisible - it's just your browser recording the tab.

What about Webex personal rooms and Webex Suite meetings?

Both work as long as the meeting has a webex.com join URL on the calendar event. Personal room links (like company.webex.com/meet/name) and scheduled Webex Suite meetings both resolve to the same URL format the bot follows.

Does RecordX record video from Webex?

No. RecordX captures audio only, then generates a transcript, summary, and action items. If you need the video artifact, use Webex's own cloud recording alongside RecordX.

Can I record a Webex meeting hosted by a different company's tenant?

Yes for the extension - it records whatever your Chrome tab plays, regardless of who hosts. For the bot, the meeting must not require host approval to admit guests, or the bot will sit in the lobby and time out.

What happens if my calendar OAuth is revoked?

Auto-join stops seeing new events until you reconnect from Settings - Calendars. The extension keeps working independently - it doesn't depend on the calendar grant.

How it works

Two capture paths cover Webex. The RecordX Chrome extension records the tab audio while you're in a Webex meeting - nothing joins the participant list, and Webex itself never sees a recorder. If you'd rather not attend, or the meeting runs on the Webex desktop app, calendar auto-join dispatches a Recall.ai bot named "RecordX Notetaker" to the Webex URL and streams audio into the same library. Audio, transcript, summary, and action items land under Recordings within a minute of the call ending.

Setup

Sign up at recordx.io/register - the free tier gives you 60 minutes per month, no card.
Install the RecordX Chrome extension from the Web Store. Grant tab capture when the browser prompts on first use.
Under Settings - Calendars, connect Google Calendar (OAuth scope calendar.readonly) or Microsoft 365 (Calendars.Read). Webex events with a valid join URL show up in the upcoming list.
Turn on auto-join for the events you want covered without your presence, or leave it off and record manually from the extension.
Join a Webex meeting in Chrome ("Join from Browser") - the extension icon shows a red dot when capture starts. Click to stop, or let the meeting end drop the recording naturally.
Open RecordX and check Recordings for the transcript, summary, and action items.

Permissions

Chrome extension: tabCapture, offscreen, storage, identity, alarms, notifications. Host permission on *.webex.com.
Google Calendar OAuth: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonly. Microsoft 365 OAuth: Calendars.Read. Both read-only - RecordX cannot create, edit, or delete calendar events.
No Webex Marketplace app is installed. RecordX does not request Webex API tokens or admin access to your Webex org.

Pricing and limits

Free plan: 60 minutes per month, shared across extension and bot capture.
Paid plans and pay-as-you-go top-ups raise the ceiling; see pricing.
Webex free tier caps meetings at 40 minutes - the recording ends when Webex does. Paid Webex has no duration cap.
Bot minutes count against your RecordX quota. Webex charges nothing for a bot participant.

Common gotchas

The bot follows the Webex join URL from the calendar event, not the SIP URI. Events with only a dial-in number or SIP address can't be auto-joined.
Personal room URLs (like company.webex.com/meet/name) and scheduled meeting URLs (company.webex.com/wbxmjs/joinservice/...) both work; hallway rooms and space chats do not - only real meetings.
If a host has "Guests must be admitted by host" on, the bot lands in the lobby. Nobody admits it in time, and the recording is empty. Turn off the lobby or invite the RecordX bot email as a guest.
The extension is browser-only. Meetings on the Webex desktop or mobile app fall through to calendar auto-join or the RecordX mobile recorder.
RecordX records audio only. If you need the video artifact, run Webex's own cloud recording alongside - the two don't conflict.

Alternatives and adjacent

Webex's built-in Assistant and cloud recording stay inside Cisco Cloud and are admin-controlled - use them when your org is Webex-only and IT wants a single source. RecordX is the cross-platform option: use it when the same team spans Webex, Zoom, Teams, Meet, and phone calls, and you want one searchable library with the same summary and action-item engine on every recording. Otter and Fireflies also bot into Webex - RecordX is the option that also gives you bot-free extension capture.

Setup checklist

Register at recordx.io.
Install the RecordX Chrome extension.
Connect Google Calendar or Microsoft 365 under Settings - Calendars.
Turn on auto-join for the events you want covered.
Join a Webex meeting in Chrome and verify the extension shows the recording indicator.
Open Recordings and confirm the transcript arrived.
