What launched. On Thursday, Nov. 12, @claudeai announced (opens in a new tab) Claude Meetings. Per Anthropic's post (opens in a new tab), Claude can now join a video call as a visible participant, follow the conversation and start on work during the meeting. It is starting to roll out in beta on Team and Enterprise plans. Anthropic first said Meetings was "coming soon" on Nov. 10; the release notes (opens in a new tab) list the beta rollout on Nov. 12.

What it does. According to Anthropic and its Help Center guide (opens in a new tab):

  • Say "Claude" and ask a question out loud, or type it in the Meet chat. By default Claude answers in writing in the chat.
  • Ask it to "make a doc" or "make a whiteboard," and it builds the artifact live while teammates on the invite edit it.
  • It can use your connected tools during the call, with your permission. It asks the first time; when someone asks out loud, it confirms who's speaking each time for now.
  • After the call, a meeting page in claude.ai holds the notes, summary, action items, transcript and everything Claude made. People from your organization on the invite get a recap email.
  • You can add Claude to one meeting from your calendar or turn on auto-join. Claude can stay in a call for up to eight hours.

Anthropic says it is working with Gong, Attention, Granola, Fireflies.ai and Otter so teams can soon send a meeting's transcript to those tools.

Privacy. Claude appears as a participant and posts a notice in the call's chat. Anthropic says it saves a transcript, summary and screen descriptions, not audio. By default it stays out of calls with people from outside your organization and leaves if an outside guest joins partway through; an admin can change that. Anthropic asks users to make sure everyone on the call is OK with being transcribed.

Who it's for. Teams on Claude Team or Enterprise plans who run planning calls on Google Meet and want the doc, whiteboard and notes started before everyone hangs up.

The caveats.

  • Google Meet only for now. Anthropic says other video platforms are coming soon.
  • It's a beta and it's rolling out gradually. It isn't available to some organizations, including those with zero data retention, HIPAA-ready configuration or customer-managed encryption keys.
  • On Team plans it's on by default and an admin can turn it off. On Enterprise plans an admin has to turn it on.
  • Pricing: during the beta, notes, transcripts and answers are free on Team and Enterprise plans, unless an answer uses a connected tool, which counts toward your plan's usage. Docs, whiteboards and other artifacts made in a call are free through Feb. 10, 2027. Anthropic hasn't said what they cost after that.
