We are excited to share a significant update in Google Meet that, powered by Gemini, will transform the way you manage your meetings: the “take notes for me” feature now automatically identifies and shares “next steps.”
Since its initial launch in August 2024, Gemini’s ability to generate automatic meeting summaries in Google Meet has been a game-changer for productivity. This feature not only captures key discussion points but also sends a recap email, ensuring no one misses important information. However, Google has taken this functionality a step further, addressing one of the biggest post-meeting challenges: tracking pending actions.
The Evolution of Intelligent Note-Taking
As of February 18, 2025, the “take notes for me” feature has been enhanced to intelligently detect and organize “next steps” discussed during your meetings. This means Gemini will not only tell you what was discussed but also what needs to be done next.
How does it work?
Gemini’s artificial intelligence is now capable of:
-
- Identify Key Actions: During the conversation, Gemini processes natural language to recognize tasks, decisions, and commitments that arise.
- Organize Next Steps: These identified actions are clearly structured in a dedicated “suggested next steps” section within the meeting notes document.
- Facilitate Assignment and Review: You can easily review, edit, and assign these next steps to specific team members directly from the notes. This eliminates confusion about who is responsible for what and when.
Immediate Benefits for Your Business
For businesses relying on Google Workspace for their daily operations, this improvement represents a significant competitive advantage:
-
- Increased Efficiency: Drastically reduces the time spent transcribing notes and recalling what was agreed upon and who was responsible for it.
- Clear Accountability: By having the next steps assigned and visible to everyone, greater accountability is fostered, and the risk of important tasks being forgotten is minimized.
- Team Alignment: Ensures all meeting participants are on the same page regarding follow-up actions, improving collaboration.
- Faster and More Effective Decisions: With a clear record of commitments, teams can quickly move from discussion to execution, accelerating project cycles.
Availability
This advanced feature is available for the following Google Workspace editions:
-
- Business Standard and Business Plus
- Enterprise Standard and Enterprise Plus
- With the Gemini Education Premium add-on
- For customers who previously purchased the Gemini Enterprise and AI Meetings & Messaging add-ons.
