Record a Twitter Space or X Video and Get the Transcript
Twitter video recorder captures a Space, a video, or a call you’re watching on X, straight from your browser tab or screen, with system audio. Once you stop recording, ScreenApp turns it into a searchable transcript with AI notes, so you can find a moment without listening back to the whole thing.
Recording your screen while you watch keeps a copy of content X does not hand you a file for, and it works on anything visible in the tab: a Space, a video, a call, private accounts included. A public X post or Space link can also be pasted straight into the Twitter transcript notetaker or the video downloader instead, if you just want the transcript or the file rather than a screen recording.
What you get with every recording:
- Recording from your screen, a browser tab, your microphone and your camera, with system audio (screen, window, browser tab, microphone and camera, with system audio)
- Recording quality up to 4K, depending on the computer
- A transcript in 100+ languages, with speaker identification
- chapters with timestamps, so a long Space is split by topic
- Ask AI questions about the recording and get answers that point to the moment it happened
- trim recordings before you save or share it
- no watermark on any recording or export
- Free plan: 2 transcriptions of recordings up to 45 minutes each, with AI chat on it
Recordings are stored in your account and open on any device where you sign in.
How to Record a Twitter Space or X Video
- Start recording: Open ScreenApp’s screen recorder in the browser or the app, and pick the tab or screen showing the Space, video, or call on X, with system audio on.
- Let it run: Recording continues in the background while you listen or watch. Stop it whenever you want.
- Read the notes: The transcript, chapters and AI notes are ready a few minutes after you stop. Search the transcript, jump to a timestamp, or ask a question about what was said.
Accuracy depends on the audio you capture. A clear Space with one or two speakers transcribes well; a large Space with people talking over each other will have gaps. See how we measure accuracy.

Who Uses a Twitter Video Recorder
Content creators record their own Twitter Spaces or X videos so they still have a copy to clip and repost on other platforms, and can search the transcript to find the right moment.
Journalists capture a Space or a video before it comes down, and keep the transcript as source material for a quote or a story.
Educators record an X video or a guest Space so students who missed it can catch up from the transcript and AI notes instead.
Marketers record a competitor’s Space or a discussion for research, and search the transcript instead of relistening to the whole recording.
