Zoom's built-in recorder only works for hosts. Glooin records your screen so you capture any meeting, any time,with zero permission needed.Share a link in seconds.
Zoom only lets hosts use the built-in record button. If you're a participant which is most people, most of the time you're stuck taking notes or asking the host to share the recording later (which they often forget).
Glooin solves this by recording your screen directly. It captures everything visible the Zoom window, the audio, the shared screens and turns it into a shareable link the moment you stop. No host needed. No permission required.
Works whether you are a host or a participant. Install takes 30 seconds.
Search "Glooin" in the Chrome Web Store or click the install button on this page. Click Add to Chrome. Done in 30 seconds no restart needed.
Open Zoom in your browser or app. Join the meeting as you normally would. You don't need to be the host. You don't need to ask for permission.
Click the Glooin icon in your Chrome toolbar. Select Record Screen. Choose your Zoom window (or full screen). Allow microphone access when prompted. Click Start Recording.
When the meeting ends, click the Glooin icon and hitStop. Your recording saves automatically. Copy the link — paste it in email, Slack, Notion, or wherever. Anyone can watch without creating an account.
⚡From install to first recording: under 2 minutes.The recording link is ready the moment you click Stop — no processing wait, no file upload.

📌Glooin works onany video call platform— Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, or any screen. You're not limited to one tool.
In most regions, recording laws require consent from at least one participant (often just yourself). In some regions — including parts of the US and EU — all participants must consent.
Best practices that most teams follow:
⚠️ Always inform participants before recording. A simple "This meeting may be recorded" in the invite is standard practice and legally protects you in most regions.
1. State it verbally — say "I'm recording this meeting for notes" at the start.
2. Add it to the invite — include "This call may be recorded" in the meeting description.
3. Team recording policy — if your team records regularly, set a shared policy so everyone knows.
