3. Use the recording feature in your video conferencing tool.
4. Run your meeting in Ninety while participants follow along via screen share.

For In-Person Meetings:

1. Connect one computer to a central TV screen or projector.
2. Use an external recording app on a phone or computer if desired.
3. One person controls Ninety to guide the meeting flow.
4. Take notes directly in Ninety's built-in notes feature.
