Overview

• Ask Gemini appears as a side panel that summarizes the discussion, recaps what specific participants said, and flags decisions and action items during a call.
• The assistant answers questions by referencing meeting captions, permitted Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Gmail, plus Google Search and public websites.
• Late joiners can request a concise catch‑up, which only works when the host has enabled the Take Notes for Me feature.
• Google says responses are private to each participant and meeting captions or related data are not stored after the call, with a consent banner for attendees and an audio notice for dial‑in; hosts can turn it off and admins can change the default.
• Initial availability is limited to desktop meetings in English for select Enterprise and Business tiers, with broader rollout planned into 2026, and Google cautions that Gemini can make mistakes that users should review.
