Loom import [#loom-import]

Already using Loom? Import recordings directly from share URLs. No need to download and re-upload — paste the URL and SageOx handles the rest.

Import from URL [#import-from-url]

1. Copy your Loom share URL (e.g., `https://www.loom.com/share/abc123def456`)
2. Go to your team's **Media** section at [sageox.ai](https://sageox.ai)
3. Click **Import**
4. Paste the Loom URL
5. Add a descriptive title

SageOx downloads the video server-side and processes it through the full extraction pipeline: transcription, keyframe extraction, and summarization.

Alternative: Download and upload [#alternative-download-and-upload]

If you prefer to keep a local copy:

1. In Loom, click the **...** menu on your recording
2. Select **Download** and save the MP4
3. Go to your team's **Media** section
4. Click **Upload** and drag in the file

Both methods produce the same result — the URL import is faster since you skip the download step.

Loom settings for best results [#loom-settings-for-best-results]

**Resolution**
720p or 1080p both work. Loom defaults to 1080p, which is fine. If you can lower it to 720p in your Loom settings, processing is faster with no loss in extraction quality.

**Camera**
Optional. SageOx extracts value from screen content and narration, not your face. Disabling the camera bubble reduces file size.

**Audio**
Keep narration clear. Speak at a normal pace and avoid background noise. Transcript quality drives everything downstream — a clear recording produces better summaries and more searchable content.

**Duration**
5-10 minutes is the sweet spot. For longer content, consider splitting into multiple recordings by topic. Each gets its own transcript and summary.

What gets extracted [#what-gets-extracted]

From your Loom recording, SageOx produces:

| Artifact       | What it contains                                |
| -------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| **Transcript** | Timestamped text with speaker labels            |
| **Keyframes**  | Representative screenshots with AI descriptions |
| **Summary**    | Chapters, decisions, and action items           |
| **Metadata**   | Title, duration, import date                    |

Your AI coworkers read these artifacts at session start. They can cite specific recordings when implementing features or explaining decisions.
