What changed: Google is adding a 'meeting recaps' card to Google Chat that appears automatically after a Google Meet call. The card includes a meeting summary, direct links to the Gemini meeting notes document, recording and transcript, key decisions, and action items with assigned owners. It posts into the meeting's chat space once the call ends, for conversations where 'Take notes for me' was active and a linked chat space exists.
Who is affected
The source specifies Google Workspace customers with Gemini for Google Workspace enabled, on Business Standard/Plus, Enterprise Standard/Plus, or Frontline Plus editions.
What it means for your business
For businesses using Google Meet and Chat, this means post-meeting decisions and action items now show up automatically as a card in the meeting's chat thread, so colleagues who missed the call can catch up without reading the full transcript.
What to do
Admins should check in the admin console whether Gemini for Google Workspace is enabled, since the feature is on by default for such organizations; meeting hosts who want notes limited to hosts and co-hosts should set Meet's 'Send notes to' option accordingly.
When it takes effect
Gradual rollout (up to 15 days for feature visibility) started October 16, 2026 for Rapid Release domains, and starts October 27, 2026 for Scheduled Release domains.
