Miro Talktrack is the fastest way to share context with your team. Record a quick walkthrough of your Miro board or anything else on your screen. Your recordings sit right next to the work they're about, so context stays where decisions happen.

Whether or not you have a Miro plan and regardless of your plan type, you can watch any Talktracks shared with you.

TIP: If you're a Company Admin on Enterprise Plan, you can grant access to Talktrack for your organization in your Feature access settings. Learn more about Talktrack Admin security.
