Beaver's Powerful Features

Everything your team needs to capture, transcribe, and action every meeting.

Live Transcription

Captures text in real-time as people speak — with speaker names and timestamps. No audio stored, ever.

AI Summaries & Action Items

Executive summary, key decisions, and extracted action items with assignees, due dates, and priorities — auto-generated after every meeting.

Calendar Auto-Join

Connect Google Calendar and Beaver joins scheduled meetings automatically — 2–5 minutes before start. Just admit Beaver when it knocks.

Commitment Tracking

Track verbal promises made in meetings — not just tasks. Open, fulfilled, and expired commitments give your team a clear accountability ledger across every meeting.

Pre-Meeting Briefings

30 minutes before each meeting, Beaver emails you a personalised AI brief — past decisions, open actions, and context from previous conversations. Walk in prepared, every time.

The Lodge — Your Team Wiki

Every meeting Beaver summarises automatically feeds your team's knowledge base. Decisions, context, and history — searchable, always up to date, built without any extra effort.

Push to Your Tools

Send action items directly to Linear, GitHub, Notion, Jira, Asana, or Trello with one click. Post summaries to Slack or Discord. Beaver fits into how your team already works.

Meeting Templates

Choose a summary format matched to your meeting type — Sprint Planning, Sales Call, 1:1, Incident Postmortem, or General. The AI output is shaped to exactly what you need.

Analytics & Insights

Track meeting health scores, speaker time distribution, action item completion rates, and trends over time. See which meetings move the needle and which ones don't.

Works where your team works

Push action items straight to your tools

One click from the meeting detail page sends tasks directly to wherever your team tracks work. No copy-paste, no context switching.

Built for every Dam team

Different roles. Same mission: stop losing context.

Close more deals. Remember every signal.

Sales teams lose deals not from bad pitches, but from missed follow-ups. Beaver captures every objection, buying signal, and commitment — so you can write a perfect follow-up email in minutes.

  • Objections and concerns surfaced automatically
  • Next steps extracted as action items with deadlines
  • Share call summary with your manager or CRM instantly
  • Never say "sorry, I forgot you mentioned budget constraints"

Sales call summary

Buying signals

Prospect asked about onboarding timeline (twice) and mentioned "our Q1 budget is already approved"

Objections raised

Concerned about integration with existing Salesforce setup. Needs IT sign-off.

Committed next step

Send Salesforce integration docs by Thursday — Alex

Sprint notes, decisions, and blockers — automated.

Engineering teams move fast. Beaver keeps a reliable record of architectural decisions, sprint commitments, and who owns what — so nothing gets lost between standups.

  • Architecture decisions recorded with full context
  • Blockers flagged as priority action items
  • Async teammates catch up without re-running the standup
  • Sprint retrospective notes generated automatically

Sprint planning summary

Decisions made

Ship API v1 without OAuth this sprint. Revisit in Sprint 14. Use Redis for session storage.

Blockers

Staging environment down — blocking QA. James escalating to DevOps.

Sprint 13 commitments

API v1, auth refactor, onboarding flow redesign — all owned and deadlined.

Lead 10 meetings a week. Miss nothing.

Executives and managers can't be everywhere. Beaver gives you a crisp 2-minute summary of every meeting you attended (or missed) — decisions, risks, and who committed to what.

  • 5-sentence executive brief for every meeting
  • Track all open action items across your org
  • Catch up on any meeting you couldn't attend
  • Email digests of what your team committed to

  • GDPR-compliant with configurable data retention
  • SSO and role-based access for enterprise teams

Beaver starts before that.

Most meeting tools capture what happened. Beaver helps you before, during, after, and for every meeting that follows.

Teams that love Beaver

Real feedback from real humans.

"We tried other competitor products, but all of them recorded audio — our legal team flagged it immediately. Beaver's text-only approach was the deciding factor. It captures everything we need without the compliance headache."
SC

Dan Keller

InFlux Technologies

"Our team runs multiple meetings a week. Before Beaver, someone was always the designated note-taker and half-listening. Now everyone's fully present and Beaver handles the rest. The action item extraction alone saves us an hour of follow-up per week."
JK

Kadi Barry

Manager, Restore Empathy

"I'm a solo founder doing 15+ sales calls a week. Beaver pays for itself on the first call — I actually remembered everything a prospect told me and referenced it in my follow-up. They were genuinely impressed. Closed that deal."
MR

Marcus Reid

Founder, Launchpad CRM

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Beaver takes notes in text only. No audio files are created or stored at any point.
Connect Google Calendar once (read-only access). Beaver monitors your upcoming events and joins any meeting with a Google Meet link — a few minutes before start. You simply admit it when it requests entry. You can opt out of single meetings anytime a the click of a button, or completely opt-out by disconnecting your calendar.
Absolutely not. Your meeting transcripts and summaries are never used to train any AI model — by us or any third party. Your data belongs to you.
Typically a few minutes after the meeting ends, depending on length. The summary includes an executive overview, key decisions, and action items with assignees.
Yes, cancel anytime — no questions asked, no long-term contracts. Your data remains accessible until your billing period ends.
Only you — and teammates you explicitly share a meeting with. Transcripts are stored encrypted at rest and are only accessible through your authenticated account.
If Beaver knocks but isn't admitted within a few minutes, the join attempt is abandoned and you're notified. No transcript is generated. You can re-submit the meeting link manually at any time to try again.
Not yet — Beaver currently supports Google Meet and Microsoft Teams. Zoom support is on our roadmap. Let us know if Zoom is a priority for your team and we'll bump it up.
Yes. You can delete individual meeting transcripts at any time from your dashboard. You can also submit a full account deletion request from your profile settings, which permanently removes all your data within 30 days.
30 minutes before any meeting on your Google Calendar, Beaver automatically emails you a personalised AI brief. It pulls context from your previous meetings with the same participants — open action items, past decisions, and anything that's still unresolved. You walk in already up to speed, without doing any prep yourself.
The Lodge is your team's auto-generated knowledge base. Every time Beaver summarises a meeting, it extracts key topics and decisions and uses them to create or update pages in The Lodge. Over time it becomes a searchable record of everything your team has discussed and decided — built automatically, with no manual effort required.
Action items are tasks extracted from the meeting — things that need to be done, with an assignee and optional due date. Commitments are verbal promises made during the meeting: "I'll get that to you by Friday", "We agreed to ship without the auth flow". Both are tracked separately. Action items live in your task board; commitments live in the accountability ledger where they're marked open, fulfilled, or expired.
Beaver integrates with Linear, GitHub Issues, Notion, Jira, Asana, and Trello for task creation, and with Slack and Discord for posting meeting summaries to channels. Integrations are configured once from your settings page and then available on every meeting detail page with a single click.
Yes. Beaver ships with five built-in meeting templates — General, Sprint Planning, Sales Call, 1:1, and Incident Postmortem — each tuned to generate the most useful output for that type of meeting. You can also create your own custom templates with specific instructions for the AI. Select a template when you start recording, or set a default per meeting type.
