Summary
Jono Catliff looks at Claude Meetings, Anthropic’s new meeting assistant, and explains how it compares with note-takers such as Otter and Fireflies. The feature is in beta, works only with Google Meet, and is limited to Team and Enterprise plans, so Max and Ultra subscribers do not have access yet. The video notes that launch-day errors and a broken documentation link prevented a live demo.
The setup process covers enabling Claude Meetings for an organization, connecting a Google account, syncing a calendar and adding Claude to video calls. The beta provides transcripts and notes but not audio recordings.
The main difference from existing tools is that Claude can be asked questions during the call and can build artifacts live, including documents, whiteboards and slides. Whiteboards support flowcharts, graphics and interactive apps, presentations can be marked up with notes, and everything is stored in the cloud and shareable by link. The video also mentions the newly released data dashboards and speculates about future formats such as spreadsheets. Catliff gives his view of the competitive impact on note-taking and whiteboard tools, including Miro, and on Microsoft.
