How to record a meeting with Meetbook
Auto-join from calendar vs. manually pasting a meeting link.
There are three ways to get a meeting recorded.
1. Automatic, from your calendar
Once your calendar is connected and auto-record is on, Meetbook sends a bot — your Notetaker — to every meeting that matches your recording rules. No action needed per meeting.

You can customize what the notetaker is called and what it says when it joins in Settings → Notetaker. Two timeouts protect against runaway recordings:
- Silence Exit Duration — stops recording if no one speaks for the configured duration (default 5 min).
- Maximum Meeting Duration — hard cap on recording length (default 6 hours).
2. Manual, from the dashboard
Click Record (top right of Home, or on a meeting's detail page) and paste a meeting link. Useful for ad-hoc calls that aren't on your calendar.
3. In-browser, from the Chrome extension
For calls you're already in, click the extension icon and Record — see Installing the Chrome extension. This captures audio directly from the tab instead of sending a visible bot participant, which is useful when a platform doesn't allow bot participants.
Automation settings
Settings → Meeting controls the defaults for every recording:

- Auto-summarize recordings — runs the AI report the moment a recording ends.
- Auto-record meetings — sends the bot to every calendar meeting (the master switch for automatic recording).
- Spoken / secondary / output language — controls what the transcriber listens for and what language reports are written in.
