Get started

Setting up takes about five minutes. You do it once, on the computer you’ll import from.

Before you start

  • Record with Google Recorder and turn on backup, so your recordings appear in your Recorder account on the web.
  • Have a Mac or Windows computer with Codex and Google Chrome installed. See Requirements.
  • Use the same ChatGPT account and workspace everywhere you want to read your recordings.

1. Turn on G-Records

Open Plugins in ChatGPT or Codex, find G-Records and enable it. One plugin covers everything: reading on any device, and importing on your computer.

2. Connect Google Recorder

In a local Codex chat on your computer, ask:

Set up G-Records with my Google Recorder account.

G-Records asks for your Google Recorder email address and time zone, then opens a dedicated Chrome profile so you can sign in to Google. Your sign-in stays in that profile on your computer. More about connecting.

3. Import your recordings

In the same chat, ask:

Import my recordings.

The first import brings in the last seven days. Each recording gets a summary using your default template, and the full transcript is saved alongside it. More about importing.

4. Ask about a recording, anywhere

Open ChatGPT on any device and ask, for example:

Find my product planning meeting and tell me what we decided.

Your computer can be asleep or offline. More ways to use recordings.
