Meetings are the engine of business – but they’re just a moment in time. What’s said is said once (hopefully you aren’t repeating yourself!), and unless there’s a recording, it’s gone forever. Meanwhile, we increasingly expect our tools to be smarter: surfacing action items, summarizing conversations, and updating systems without manual work.
Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of the Nylas Notetaker API – your fast track to integrating AI-powered meeting recordings and transcriptions directly into your product. The Notetaker API supports Google Meets, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom meetings at launch, with more coming in the future.
If you’re using our calendar API already, you’re only one API call away from enabling Notetaker for your users!
Just like our Email, Calendar, and Contact APIs, the Notetaker API is purpose-built for developers and product teams who want to build fast, stay compliant (SOC-2, HIPAA, ISO27001, GDPR), and deliver integrated user experiences, without the heavy lift of building an entire recording platform from scratch.
The world is increasingly hybrid, remote, and fast-moving – and the cost of missing important meeting information is high.
In fact, according to a survey from Dialpad, 28% of users said their current video conferencing solution doesn’t meet all their needs. The top missing feature? Integration with their day to day tools.
Nylas Notetaker API is a meeting assistant that your application can send to your user’s calls:
If you have access to your user’s calendar, then we can sync Notetakers directly with their calendar for you.
If you have your own native calendar integration, Notetaker is available as a standalone product too.
