Claude Meetings launches in beta on Google Meet

Anthropic's Claude Meetings beta lets Claude join Google Meet calls as a visible participant, answer questions, and build live artifacts for Team and Enterprise plans.

Anthropic released the beta of Claude Meetings on November 12, 2026, according to the Claude Meetings resources page and the Claude release notes. The feature lets Claude join a Google Meet call as a visible participant that can answer questions and build artifacts live during the meeting.

What the beta adds

Claude joins a Google Meet call as a visible participant, appears in the attendee list, and announces itself in chat
Available on Team and Enterprise plans, inside both Claude and Claude Desktop
Users can ask Claude questions verbally or through chat during the call
Claude can build artifacts such as docs, whiteboards, and slides live during the meeting
The beta currently supports Google Meet only, with other video platforms described as coming soon
Notes, transcripts, and in-call answers are free during the beta on Team and Enterprise plans, with artifacts created in meetings free through February 10, 2027

What it means for people building with AI

The update matters because it moves Claude from a browser tab into the middle of a live conversation for the first time, with a concrete ship date and clear plan and pricing details that Anthropic had only described as coming soon two days earlier. For teams that run calls for planning, support, or research, Claude Meetings turns the model into an active participant rather than a tool opened on the side, with the ability to produce a document, whiteboard, or slide deck the group can look at as the conversation happens.

Availability and limits

Claude Meetings is not available to organizations using zero data retention, HIPAA-ready configuration, or customer-managed encryption keys. By default, Claude stays out of a call when external, non-organization guests are invited. Anthropic also plans partner integrations for transcript distribution with Gong, Attention, Granola, Fireflies.ai, Otter, and Plaud.
