Sorinai doesn't join the call as a bot. It listens to the audio on your laptop — so it works with everything you already use.

Audio, not a bot
Sorinai doesn’t plug into your meeting app via its API, and no bot joins the call. It just listens to your laptop’s audio — so it works with anything you can hear.

Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex

These are the four apps Sorinai knows to spot automatically. Launch a session in Meeting mode, start the call in your meeting app, and Sorinai starts capturing as soon as the call goes live.

Zoom
Desktop client and browser both work.
Google Meet
Works in your browser. On Mac, grant Screen Recording so Sorinai can hear the other participant.
Microsoft Teams
Desktop and browser. Teams on Mac can take a couple of extra seconds to start the transcript.
Webex
Desktop client on Mac and Windows.

WhatsApp, FaceTime, Slack, Discord

For these, launch a session in Phone call mode. Sorinai records whatever’s playing on your speakers plus your microphone — so it works with WhatsApp calls, FaceTime audio (Mac only), Slack huddles, Discord voice, direct-dial numbers, and any other calling app.

Connecting your calendar

Connect a Google or Microsoft calendar and your upcoming interviews show up in the session launcher — one click to attach the event’s attendees and title as context.

  1. 1Open Settings → Calendar.
  2. 2Click Connect Google or Connect Microsoft and sign in.
  3. 3Upcoming events appear in the session launcher for the next few days. Click one to link it to the session.

Choosing which calendars sync

Most people have more than one calendar (work, personal, secondary). After you connect, Sorinai only pulls in your primary calendar by default. Add or remove calendars any time under Settings → Calendar → Manage calendars.

Events are cached for about a minute. If a new meeting doesn’t show up, hit Refresh.

Why no bot joins the call

A bot model has real downsides:

  • The candidate sees an AI assistant in the call. That often changes how they answer — and some companies forbid it.
  • Bots need calendar write access and meeting-host links — more moving parts to break on the day.
  • Bots can’t capture phone calls or huddles. Listening to audio works anywhere.

Telling your candidate you use Sorinai is fine — many of our customers do. The point is it’s your choice, not a bot announcing itself.
