Wudpecker joins your meetings as an AI assistant that records, transcribes, and generate high-quality notes for your meetings.

Here’s how Wudpecker integrates with Zoom to take your notes.

Step 1: Wudpecker fetches your upcoming meetings

In the home page, you will see the meetings that the Wudpecker Notetaker will join to record, whether it's a Zoom, Google Meet or Teams call.

Upcoming meetings that Wudpecker is joining

These are fetched from your calendar, hence why you need to connect it. Wudpecker joins your meetings through a calendar event based on the meeting link (in the event's location) and the event start time.

The notetaker needs the meeting link and the event's start time

Step 2: Wudpecker joins your meeting

When you see Wudpecker.io Notetaker in your meeting, that means Wudpecker is doing its job to record the conversation.

Once the meeting ends, the Notetaker starts doing its magic. The recording gets transcribed and summarized.

Step 3: The results

Within a few minutes after the meeting you'll see the notes and transcript in your account.

Now keep in mind, Wudpecker generates the best summaries for recordings that are longer than 5 minutes.
