Anthropic launches Claude Meetings, putting Claude into video calls as a visible participant
In beta for Team and Enterprise plans and starting on Google Meet, Claude answers questions in writing, uses connected tools with permission, builds docs and whiteboards during the call, and writes the notes and action items.
Why it matters
Claude Meetings moves Anthropic's assistant out of the chat window and into live video calls, where it can answer questions, draft documents and use connected tools while people are still talking. The Decoder notes it extends recently announced whiteboards and data dashboards that are turning the Claude app into an all-in-one office tool. It starts on Google Meet only, for Team and Enterprise plans. Watch which video platforms follow and when HIPAA and customer-managed-encryption customers can use it.
