Zoom

CoLoop can be integrated directly with Zoom to capture and record interviews live as they are conducted. The recordings will be kept within the project you’ve selected and take away the layer of uploading videos to CoLoop. This can help to streamline the operational process and improves speaker accuracy particularly when conducting focus groups with multiple participants.
