Short answer

How can I search my Grain recordings with AI?

Your AI uses the Grain Connector to scan your recording library for specific keywords or topics. It pulls the text from your meetings so you can find exactly what you need without rewatching videos.

Search outcomes

What you find in your recordings

The AI turns raw meeting data into answers.

RETRIEVAL

Instant topic hits

The AI finds the exact moment a topic comes up. You get the context without scrolling through hours of footage.

CLARITY

Summarized discussions

Instead of reading long transcripts, your AI pulls out the key points from the text it finds.

ACCURACY

Direct transcript access

The AI pulls the actual text from your recordings. You can verify exactly what was said.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

You still need to watch the video if you need to see facial expressions or screen shares. The AI only handles the text.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask a question.

The AI moves from a broad search to specific text retrieval to answer you.

  1. Locate the meeting

    The AI looks through your Grain library to find recordings that match your specific keywords or topics.
