“Take notes for me” in Google Meet now captures citations to transcripts

By Alfonso Martinez 2 min read

What’s changing

Recently, we announced that next steps will automatically be captured when using “take notes for me” in Google Meet. Building upon that momentum, your meeting notes document will now include citations, or timestamps, which correlate to the exact point in the meeting transcript that references the summarized notes. 

For example, you’ll see something like: “Sophie discussed the updated marketing plan (00:08:32)”. When you click on the timestamp, the meeting transcription tab in the document will open and take you to  the moment that the discussion occurred. From here, you can drill into the details of the discussion for even more context.

When you click on a timestamp, the transcription tab will open automatically to the specific point in the conversation
