Anthropic unveils feature that brings Claude into video meetings to create plans and to-dos on the spot(techcrunch.com)

- Claude Meetings is a feature that adds Claude to a video meeting as a visible participant. According to Anthropic, it follows the conversation, drafts the plan being discussed, sketches a schedule on the whiteboard, and answers questions in the meeting chat. - It can pull in material such as last year's figures from connected work apps. After the meeting ends, you can view the meeting notes, the to-do list, and the materials Claude created on claude.ai. - Claude identifies itself as a meeting participant and leaves a notice in the meeting chat. In calls with external guests, it joins only if an admin allows it, and it leaves automatically when a guest joins. - Claude Whiteboards, released at the same time, organizes the discussion into a board with a timeline and deadlines and turns it into a document or slides. Claude Sheets creates spreadsheets such as a campaign tracker or a hiring budget and explains the changes it made.
