Google Meet's 'Take Notes' feature, powered by Gemini AI, is now available for in-person meetings. This capability was previously restricted to online meetings within the platform. Users can access the feature via a new icon on Android and iOS, or through meet.google.com in a web browser.
To use the feature, users tap 'Start taking notes' and place their device near the meeting participants. The session can be stopped, paused, and continued as needed. After the meeting concludes, Google Meet provides a complete transcript, a summary, and a list of action items, which are saved as a Google Doc in the user's Drive and also emailed.
The 'Take Notes' feature supports one language at launch and is recommended for meetings up to 15 minutes. For consumers, it requires a Google AI Pro or AI Ultra subscription. It is also being rolled out to specific Workspace editions, including Business Standard and Plus, Enterprise Standard and Plus, Frontline Plus, and Google AI Pro for Education add-ons.
The rollout begins with Google Meet for Android, followed by web support, and will start for iOS at the end of August.
