# 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.

  the notetaker is included on **every plan**, free included. auto-join needs a
  connected Google Calendar, and there's a sensible monthly cap on notetaker
  time so it never runs away with itself.
