Anthropic introduced Claude Meetings in beta on November 12. Claude can join a Google Meet as a visible participant, answer questions in the call or chat, and help create a document or whiteboard while people are still talking. Team members can edit the shared work during the meeting.
After a call, the meeting page can hold notes, action items, a transcript and the artifacts Claude created. Anthropic says the beta saves transcripts, summaries and screen descriptions, not audio. The feature is rolling out on Team and Enterprise plans, with organization administrators controlling access on Enterprise; Google Meet is the supported platform at launch.
The announcement also describes safeguards for outside guests: Claude stays out by default when an external guest is invited and leaves if one joins, unless an administrator allows it. Claude uses connected tools with each person’s permission, and some configurations—including zero data retention, HIPAA-ready setups and customer-managed encryption keys—are excluded from the beta.
The feature turns meeting assistance into a live, shared workflow rather than a post-call transcript alone. Its rollout is limited, and teams should understand that calls are transcribed and screen descriptions are retained even though audio is not saved.
