Anthropic Adds Claude to Meetings, Whiteboards and Spreadsheets

At a glance

Anthropic has launched Claude Meetings, a feature that lets Claude join video calls and start working during the discussion. The company also released Claude Whiteboards and Claude Sheets.

Key points

1. 1

   Claude Meetings joins video calls as a visible participant and drafts plans, timelines, and answers in real time.

2. 2

   After a call, meeting notes and action items are saved in claude.ai.

3. 3

   Claude leaves automatically if an external guest joins and won't join external calls without admin approval.

4. 4

   Claude Meetings is in beta on Team and Enterprise plans and currently works only with Google Meet.

Why it matters

Work that used to start after a meeting can now begin during it, which could change how teams work. The launch is part of a wider race among AI companies, including OpenAI and Meta, to win the office software market.
