Short cards you can read in order or jump straight to. Tap the link icon on any card to share just that part.

01

What is Claude Meetings?

Claude Meetings lets Claude join a video call as a visible participant. It follows the conversation, answers questions, writes notes and action items, and builds documents and whiteboards with your team while the meeting is still going. Anthropic launched it in beta on November 12, 2026.

Leave the meeting with the plan already written, not just a list of things to do.

02

Who can use it

Plans
Claude Team and Enterprise, in beta
Video platform
Google Meet only for now; other platforms are coming
Not yet available
Some organisations, including those using zero data retention, HIPAA-ready setups, or customer-managed encryption keys
03

Add Claude to a call

  • Invite Claude to the meeting, like any participant
  • Or add it from your calendar in claude.ai
  • Or turn on auto-join so it joins your meetings automatically
  • On Team plans, inviting Claude is on by default; on Enterprise, an admin turns it on
04

During the meeting

  • Ask Claude questions out loud or in the meeting chat; it replies in writing by default
  • Ask it to draft a plan, a document, or a whiteboard timeline
  • Teammates can edit what Claude builds in real time
  • Ask for a quick recap before the meeting ends

Claude, turn what we just agreed into a launch plan with owners and dates, and put the timeline on a whiteboard.

05

After the meeting

  • Every meeting gets its own page in claude.ai
  • The page holds notes, action items, the transcript, and anything Claude created
  • Invited colleagues can view and edit it, and you can share it inside your organisation
  • Later, ask Claude about past meetings you attended
06

Connected tools

Claude can use each person’s connected tools, such as documents or project apps, but only with that person’s permission. It asks the first time. For spoken requests it checks who is speaking each time. Remember that answers posted in the meeting chat are visible to everyone on the call.

07

Outside guests

  • By default, Claude stays out of calls with people from outside your organisation
  • If an outsider joins later, it leaves
  • An admin can allow Claude on calls with guests; it then posts a notice but does not reply in chat
09

What it costs in the beta

Notes and transcripts
Free on Team and Enterprise
Answers in calls
Free, unless they use a connected tool, which counts toward plan usage
Docs, whiteboards, and other artifacts
Free through February 10, 2027
10

Partner note-takers

Anthropic lists Gong, Attention, Granola, Fireflies.ai, and Otter as partners, with transcript sending to their tools expected soon.

11

Tips for better meetings

  • Share an agenda so Claude knows the goal
  • Say decisions clearly so they land in the notes
  • Ask Claude to assign owners and dates before the call ends
  • Check the notes and fix anything that is wrong

The golden rule

Do not add Claude to a call without telling people. Get everyone’s consent, give it a clear agenda, and leave the meeting with a plan everyone has already seen and edited.

  • Google Meet
  • Team
  • Enterprise
  • Notes
  • Whiteboards
  • Guests
  • Consent

Add Claude to one internal team meeting this week and compare its notes with your own.
