Anthropic has launched Claude Meetings. Claude joins your video call as a visible participant, follows the conversation, and starts on the work while the meeting is still running. The beta is rolling out on Team and Enterprise plans, in Claude and in Claude Desktop. Google Meet is supported for now, with other platforms to follow.
This was already announced two days ago, in a single line under Claude Whiteboards, Sheets, and Data. Now it has its own entry in the Claude apps release notes.
What Claude does during the call
Your team can ask Claude questions mid-meeting, out loud or in chat. By default Claude answers in writing. With your permission it uses your connected tools — it asks the first time, and a yes applies from then on. When someone asks out loud, Claude currently checks each time to confirm who is speaking.
Anthropic’s own example: a team is planning a customer event. “Claude, start a doc for this plan.” Claude writes up what has been said so far, and teammates on the invite edit the plan while the conversation continues. When the budget comes up, someone asks what last year’s event cost. Claude requests approval, looks it up, posts it in the meeting chat, and compares it against the current plan. When timelines come up, a whiteboard joins the pile. Claude writes the notes and action items, so nobody on the call has to.
Every meeting gets its own page
Claude creates a page per meeting, with notes, transcript, and everything it built. Anyone from your organization who was on the invite can see that page and edit what Claude made. Later you can go back to past meetings and ask Claude about them, or add Claude to your next one straight from the calendar in claude.ai.
What gets saved is the transcript, a summary, and descriptions of the shared screen. Not the audio. Anthropic adds one sentence that matters more than the rest in practice: before you invite Claude, make sure everyone on your calls is fine with being transcribed.
The named partners are Gong, Attention, Granola, Fireflies.ai, Otter, and Plaud. Sending a meeting’s transcript to the tools your team already uses is supposed to arrive soon.
Outside guests are excluded by default
By default Claude stays out of calls where someone from outside your organization is invited, and leaves if an outsider joins partway through. An admin can clear Claude for those calls. There, Claude posts its notice in the chat but does not reply in it, and whatever the guests say lands in the notes and the transcript.
On Team plans, inviting Claude is on by default and an admin can switch it off. On Enterprise plans an admin turns it on first, for all or part of the organization. During the beta it is unavailable to organizations with zero data retention, a HIPAA-ready configuration, or customer-managed encryption keys.
Notes and transcripts are free during the beta on Team and Enterprise, and so are Claude’s answers in your calls. If an answer uses a connected tool, it counts toward your plan’s usage. The docs, whiteboards, and other artifacts Claude makes in a call are free through February 10, 2027.
Anthropic is turning the notetaker bots into partners
Gong, Granola, and Otter have taken meeting notes for years, and those are exactly the names Anthropic now lists as partners. The difference sits in the output: when the call ends, the doc, the deck, or the whiteboard is already there, carrying the edits colleagues made while people were still talking. And that February date for the artifacts tells you where the price lands later.
