Anthropic has opened a beta of Claude Meetings, which brings Claude into Google Meet calls as a visible participant. Announced on November 12, 2026, it is rolling out on Claude Team and Enterprise plans. Claude takes the notes, answers questions and builds documents during the call, and afterward the notes, action items and transcript sit on a meeting page in claude.ai. Anthropic’s help article covers the settings.
What Claude does in a call
When Claude joins, it shows up as a participant and posts a notice in the call chat. People can ask it something out loud or in the chat, and by default it answers in writing in the Meet chat, where everyone on the call can see the reply.
Claude can build docs, whiteboards and other artifacts while people talk, and teammates on the invite can edit them. It can also use connected tools, such as Slack, with each person’s own permission, asked the first time. For now, when a request comes out loud, Claude asks each time to confirm who is speaking.
A user can set Claude to join all their meetings or all except one-on-ones. Claude can stay for up to eight hours. People can pause it by asking it to stop listening, or remove it from the meeting page.
What it saves, and who sees it
Anthropic says Claude saves a transcript, a summary and descriptions of what was on screen, not audio. It asks users to make sure everyone on a call is fine with being transcribed before adding Claude.
The meeting page is visible to people from the organization who were on the invite, and they get a recap email. Outside guests do not get the page or the email.
Guest rules depend on the plan. On Enterprise, the default is internal meetings only. Claude stays out of calls with outside invitees and leaves if an outsider, including another company’s notetaker bot, joins. On Team, guest calls are allowed by default, and an owner can turn that off. On a guest call, Claude takes notes but does not reply in the chat, and what guests say goes into the transcript.

Plans, limits and pricing
On Team plans Meetings is on by default and an owner can turn it off. On Enterprise an owner turns it on, for everyone or for some roles. During the beta it is not available to organizations with zero data retention, a HIPAA-ready configuration or customer-managed encryption keys.
Notes, transcripts and answers that don’t use connected tools are included in Team and Enterprise plans. Tool use counts toward usage and can lead to charges. Docs and whiteboards made in a meeting are free through February 10, 2027.
Google Meet is the only platform for now. Anthropic is working with Gong, Granola, Otter and others so transcripts can be sent to them. Its November 10 post had listed Meetings as coming soon.
