Anthropic lets Claude join video calls as a visible participant. In the Claude Meetings beta, Claude follows the conversation, answers questions and starts working even while the meeting is still going on. The feature is available to Team and Enterprise plans and currently supports only Google Meet.
Previously, Claude Meetings was only announced. Now Anthropic names plans, costs and limits. The guide contains no euro price and no statement on regions or languages.
What does Claude do in the meeting?
Claude identifies itself when joining and writes a notice in the chat. Participants ask questions verbally or in the chat, and Claude answers in writing by default. With the consent of the person asking, Claude also uses connected tools.
In addition, Claude creates documents and whiteboards with the team that everyone edits live, and notes down tasks. According to Anthropic's guide, notes, transcript, plan and whiteboard then end up on a dedicated meeting page in claude.ai. There, you can discuss an earlier meeting with Claude later on.
Which plans get it, and what does it cost?
The beta applies to Team and Enterprise plans and is being rolled out gradually, so your account may get it later. Organizations with Zero Data Retention, a HIPAA-ready configuration or customer-managed keys are excluded.

Notes and transcripts cost nothing during the beta. Answers in the call are also free, unless they use a connected tool: in that case, they count toward your plan's usage quota. Documents, whiteboards and other artifacts remain free through February 10, 2027. Anthropic does not say what applies afterward.
With Team, inviting Claude is active by default, and admins can turn it off. With Enterprise, admins enable Claude for the entire organization or for specific parts of it.
What happens with guests and data?
By default, Claude does not join a call with external guests and leaves as soon as an external guest is added later. If admins allow such calls, Claude posts a notice in the chat and does not answer there. What guests say still flows into notes and transcript.
Anthropic stores the transcript, summary and screen descriptions, but no audio. The meeting page can be seen and edited by all invited people in the organization. Consent to tool access then applies permanently, and Anthropic advises obtaining all participants' consent to transcription before auto-join.
What this means for you
As an admin, check before the first use whether inviting Claude is active in your organization, and clarify with the team whether auto-join should apply. Let participants know before the meeting that Claude is taking notes, especially for meetings with guests.
Try Claude Meetings in an internal meeting, such as a weekly planning session, and have it create a document and whiteboard. Put February 10, 2027 in your calendar so that, before the free phase ends, you know whether your team needs a budget for it. If your team uses Zoom or Teams, Claude stays out for now.
