Claude Meetings joins Google Meet

Anthropic's release notes (opens in a new tab) for 12 November 2026 say Claude Meetings is rolling out in beta on Team and Enterprise plans in Claude and Claude Desktop. You can add Claude to a Google Meet call as a visible participant that takes notes, answers questions, and builds artifacts, such as docs, whiteboards, and slides, during the call.

The product article (opens in a new tab) says Claude answers in writing by default, and that it can use a person's connected tools with that person's permission. Other video platforms are described as coming soon. During the beta, notes and transcripts are free on Team and Enterprise plans. Answers in the call are free unless they use a connected tool, which counts toward the plan's usage. Docs, whiteboards, and other artifacts Claude makes in a call are free through 10 February 2027. The article says the beta is not available to some organizations, including those with zero data retention, a HIPAA-ready configuration, or customer-managed encryption keys. On Team plans, inviting Claude is on by default and an admin can turn it off. On Enterprise plans, an admin turns it on. Claude saves a transcript, a summary, and screen descriptions, not audio.

Who it's for: a Team or Enterprise group that already meets on Google Meet and wants notes and a working draft during the call.

Fits: Best for Writing stays Claude, for a draft that has to sound like a person. A participant on a call is not that draft. The writing guide and the Claude alternatives are unchanged. The verdict is unchanged.
