What is an AI meeting note taker?

An AI meeting note taker is a tool that joins your video meetings, captures a live transcript of everything said, and then uses AI to generate structured notes - including a summary, key decisions, and action items with assignees. Beaver does this automatically, without you needing to write a single word.

Does Beaver record audio during meetings?

No. Beaver transcribes meetings into text only - no audio files are ever created or stored. This makes it significantly more private than traditional meeting recorders.

Which meeting platforms does Beaver support?

Beaver supports Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom (Beta).

How accurate are Beaver's AI meeting notes?

Beaver creates a text transcript of your meeting in real time. The AI summary is generated from this transcript and typically captures all key decisions and action items. You can always review the raw transcript alongside the summary.

Can I customise how Beaver formats the AI notes?

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 meeting type. You can also create your own custom templates.

How long does it take to get AI meeting notes after a meeting?

Typically within a few minutes of your meeting ending. The AI processes the full transcript and delivers a structured summary with key decisions and action items - usually before you've even closed the meeting tab.

Frequently Asked Questions

An AI meeting note taker joins your video meetings, generates a text transcript, and uses AI to generate structured notes - summaries, key decisions, and action items. Beaver does this automatically so you can focus on the conversation instead of furiously typing.

No - never. Beaver works by creating textual transcriptions. No audio files are created or stored at any point. This makes it far more private than traditional meeting recorders.

Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom (Beta) are supported.

Beaver captures text. The AI summary is generated from this and captures key decisions and actions. You can always review the full transcript alongside it. However, for full transparency, various factors could cause certain words or sentences to be mis-transcribed. Accents, dialects, poor microphone quality, background noise, internet connection all contribute to the quality of the transcripts. In addition, every AI model out there is prone to hallucination and therefore summaries may contain inaccurate data and cannot be relied upon 100%.

Completely. Transcripts and summaries are encrypted at rest, never shared with third parties, and never used to train AI models. Only you and your fellow meeting attendees can access the meeting content.

Yes. Choose from five built-in templates - General, Sprint Planning, Sales Call, 1:1, and Incident Postmortem - or create your own. The AI shapes its output to match the meeting type.

Typically within a few minutes of the meeting ending. Usually ready before you've even closed the meeting tab.
