Claude Meetings beta gives Team and Enterprise different guest defaults

Claude Meetings is entering beta for Team and Enterprise, with live notes and artifacts but materially different guest defaults across the two plans.

179 words · 1 min

Claude Meetings joins Google Meet as a visible participant, answers in writing and creates artifacts during a discussion.

Afterward it retains a transcript, summary and action items, including descriptions of shared screens; it does not save meeting audio. The beta is for Team and Enterprise, not individual subscriptions. [1]

Team enables Meetings and allows external guests by default. Enterprise requires an administrator to enable it and defaults to internal-only calls. These tier-specific Help Center settings qualify the launch article’s broader statement that Claude stays out of external meetings. [1][2]

When an external call is allowed, guests’ speech enters the internal notes and transcript. Claude does not reply in Meet chat, and guests do not receive the internal meeting page or recap. Organizations must enable the Google Calendar connection; members choose which meetings Claude joins. [2]

Notes, transcripts and answers without connectors are included. Artifact creation is free through February 10, 2027, with no exact cutoff time stated. The beta excludes organizations using zero-data-retention, HIPAA-ready terms or customer-managed encryption keys. Check the plan’s guest setting before inviting Claude into a call involving outsiders. [1]

Images & figures

  • Team permits external guests by default; Enterprise requires an owner to allow them. In a permitted external call, guest speech enters the internal meeting record, but the guest cannot access that record and Claude does not reply in call chat.
