AWARD-WINNING
Video messaging for work
We managed to cut 20% of our meetings with Claap. It’s been instrumental to balance efficient meetings for creative review and culture with recorded videos for overall efficiency, async working across time zones, collaboration, and a record of agreements.
I think it was really a game changer. Everything is easier and you waste less time. The workload after a call where you need to prepare things and think through what you have to do was divided in two.
I've managed to shorten my sales cycle because I replace 30-minute meetings with prospects with three five-minute videos. I've literally seen ten days just fall off of that process and allow me to go quicker.

What is video messaging and how does it benefit workplace communication?
Video messaging refers to the practice of sending video clips as messages, rather than relying on text or voice alone. It offers a more personal touch, allowing for clearer communication of tone and non-verbal cues, and can be more engaging than traditional emails or text messages.
How to record video messages using the Claap Chrome extension
You can start recording by clicking on:
- Claap Chrome extension in your Chrome bar
- + New claap button in the lateral bar in your Claap workspace.
- Record a claap on the Claap Widget.

How does video messaging enhance team collaboration?
Video messaging can greatly enhance team collaboration by allowing colleagues to share ideas and updates in a more dynamic and expressive manner. It's particularly useful for remote or distributed teams, providing a sense of presence and immediacy that text-based communication lacks.
What are the key features to look for in a video messaging tool for work?
When selecting a video messaging tool for work, look for features like high-quality video and audio, ease of use, compatibility with various devices, secure data encryption, and integration with other workplace tools such as email, Slack, Notion or other project management softwares.
How does video messaging compare to live video conferencing?
Video messaging differs from live video conferencing in that it involves sending pre-recorded videos instead of engaging in real-time. This allows recipients to view the message at their convenience, making it a flexible communication tool for teams working across different time zones. Alternatively, you can also use Claap to record meetings and turn them into video messages.
Are there any best practices for recording effective video messages for work?
Effective video messages should be concise, clear, and professional. Ensure good lighting and minimal background noise. It’s also advisable to plan your message beforehand and perhaps even practice a few times to ensure clarity and conciseness. You can also use Claap's video trimming features to easily edit your video before sending it.
