# meetings

> Folk can send a notetaker into your video calls, then give you the summary, decisions, and action items.

Folk can sit in on your video calls as a **notetaker**. it joins the meeting,
listens, and afterward gives you a clean summary with the decisions made and the
action items, so you can pay attention instead of typing.

## two ways to get a notetaker in

**auto-join**

auto-join is **off by default** — connecting your calendar never drops a
notetaker into a meeting on its own. connect your **Google Calendar**, then
explicitly turn on **auto-join** (right after you connect, or anytime on the
calendar connection in the dashboard). once it's on, Folk sends its notetaker
to your calendar events that have a video link (Meet, Zoom, or Teams), and you
don't have to lift a finger. turn it off whenever you want.

**ask in chat**

tell Folk to join a specific call:

> join my 3pm standup and take notes

works with **Google Meet**, **Zoom**, and **Microsoft Teams** links — paste the
link (or reply to a message that contains it) and Folk sends the notetaker in.

## during the meeting

anyone in the call can talk to the notetaker through the **meeting chat**:

- **`@folk note this decision ...`** — Folk notes it and replies in the chat
- **`@folk leave`** — the notetaker leaves the call immediately

the bot announces itself when it joins (a pinned "recording for the meeting
host" notice) and shows a folk card in its camera tile, so nobody's surprised
it's there.

## after the meeting

everything shows up on your dashboard under **meetings**, where each one has:

- a **summary** of what happened
- the **decisions** that were made
- a list of **action items**
- the full **transcript**, if you want to dig in

and you can ask Folk about it later:

> what did we decide in yesterday's product sync?

> what were my action items from the standup?

  you stay in control of which meetings Folk joins. turn auto-join off anytime,
  or only ask it to join specific calls. you can also choose whether to receive
  notes that teammates share with you in your settings.

  meetings need a connected Google Calendar and a paid plan. there's a sensible
  monthly cap on notetaker time so it never runs away with itself.
