Google Meet’s ‘Take notes for me’ tool is about to correct its biggest oversight

TL;DR “Take notes for me” builds you a Gemini-prepared summary of Google Meet calls. Google is getting ready to expand these notes from text-only to start incorporating screenshots. Right now Google’s only talking about bringing this to Workspace users, and not yet individual Google AI subscribers.

Google Meet is a convenient way to talk to friends, family, and work colleagues face-to-face, absolutely, but it’s capable of a whole lot more , too. One of its coolest features is the ability to lean on Gemini in order to generate a concise summary of call content — an absolute godsend when it comes to long, boring meetings. Just last month, we learned about Meet expanding this “Take notes for me” tool from being a Workspace-only perk to one available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers , and now we’re getting an early preview of a new upgrade in the works.

Right now, Meet’s note-taking solution is text-based. And while that may be perfectly fine, if not even preferable for many meetings, there are also those where text-only notes are inevitably going to miss out on something — like if a colleague is screen-sharing a graphics-heavy presentation. Now, it’s not ready for use just yet, but today Google gave Workspace admins the heads-up that Meet notes will be getting the ability to include screenshots .
