ZoomGoogle MeetMicrosoft TeamsUpdated Nov 1, 2026

You don't have to install anything to start. Acta's notetaker joins Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls from a meeting link or from your calendar. To record without a bot in the call, add the Chrome extension or the desktop app.

Let Acta join your calendar meetings

  1. 1Sign in to Acta with Google or Microsoft.
  2. 2Open Settings → Meetings.
  3. 3Turn on Auto-join scheduled meetings. The calendar Acta reads is shown under the switch.

Send Acta to one call

  1. 1In My meetings, click Invite to live meeting.
  2. 2Paste the meeting link. For Zoom, paste only the link, without the Meeting ID and Passcode text.
  3. 3Click Invite Acta. If the meeting has a waiting room, let Acta in.

Record without a bot

  • Chrome extension: Google Meet, and Teams or Zoom in the browser. Needs Chrome 116 or newer.
  • Desktop app for Windows and Mac: Zoom and Teams meetings (it notices them by itself) and any other call, recorded on your computer or by the Acta bot.

Tell people you're recording

It's good practice, and in many places the law, to tell everyone in the meeting.

Troubleshooting

The Auto-join switch is greyed out

Auto-join needs your calendar, so it's available when you sign in to Acta with Google or Microsoft.

It says "Invalid URL"

Use a Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams meeting link, with nothing else in the box.

Where are my notes?

In My meetings, usually a few minutes after the call ends.
