Update: 2024-08-28 12:55 IST

Google has introduced a game-changing feature in Google Meet called "Take Notes for Me," designed to take the stress out of note-taking during meetings. This AI-driven tool automatically captures all essential points discussed in a meeting, allowing participants to fully engage in the conversation without worrying about missing any crucial information. After the meeting concludes, these notes are neatly compiled into a Google Docs file and attached to the corresponding calendar event, ensuring everyone in the organization can easily access them later.

About "Take Notes for Me" Feature

The "Take Notes for Me" feature within Google Meet is an innovative tool that generates meeting notes automatically. This feature is especially useful for those who need to focus on the discussion, collaboration, or presentations without the distraction of manual note-taking. Once the meeting ends, the notes are saved in a Google Docs document, which is attached to the related calendar event. This setup ensures that all participants, especially those within the same organization, can access the notes for future reference and follow-up actions.

Take Notes for Me - How It Works

The functionality of this feature is straightforward and highly efficient. Once enabled, "Take Notes for Me" captures key points and summaries in real-time as the meeting progresses. If someone joins the meeting late, they can quickly catch up using the "summary so far" feature. After the meeting, the generated notes are sent via email to the meeting organizer and anyone who activated the feature, providing a convenient and organized recap of the discussion. Additionally, if the meeting was recorded or transcribed, these recordings and transcripts are linked within the notes document, offering a comprehensive record of the meeting.

A meaningful advantage of this feature is that it allows participants to be more engaged in meetings without the distraction of taking notes. By automating this process, the AI ensures that all critical information is captured, letting participants focus entirely on the conversation and collaboration. This is particularly beneficial in large or complex meetings where keeping track of all the discussions can be challenging.

Take Notes for Me - Availability and Setup

"Take Notes for Me" is available to Google Workspace customers with the Gemini Enterprise, Gemini Education Premium, or AI Meetings & Messaging add-ons. For administrators, this feature is enabled by default and can be managed at the organizational unit (OU) or group level. End users can easily enable the feature in advance through the Calendar invite, ensuring that their meeting notes are captured automatically.

The rollout of this feature will occur gradually, with all users expected to have access within 15 days. It is available to customers with Rapid and Scheduled Release domains. Google Meet's "Take Notes for Me" is a powerful tool that simplifies the meeting process, allowing users to remain focused. In contrast, AI takes care of note-taking, enhancing productivity and ensuring no critical detail is overlooked.
