Claude can now be added to video calls in Google Meet

Anthropic has launched the beta test of Claude Meetings—a feature that adds Claude to a video call as a separate participant. The assistant monitors the conversation, takes notes, and can perform tasks directly during the meeting.

Users can interact with it via voice or through the Google Meet chat. By default, Claude responds in text, but during the call, it can create documents, interactive whiteboards, and other editable materials. For example, it can be tasked with drafting an event plan, locating the budget from a previous meeting, and comparing it with this year’s budget.

The service accesses documents and history through connected applications after receiving user permission. When given a voice command, Claude clarifies who issued the task. After the meeting, it generates a separate page with a transcript, summary, tasks, and created materials, and participants receive a link via email.

In the future, Anthropic plans to add transcript exports to Plaud, Gong, and Granola. The beta test is gradually becoming available to users on Team and Enterprise plans in the web version of Claude and the desktop application. During this period, transcripts and summaries are included in the subscription, but the use of integrations counts toward user limits.
