Meeting bot
A meeting bot that joins as somebody the room can see
Dot is an AI meeting agent. It joins the call, sits in the participant list, takes meeting notes, writes the minutes, and speaks up when the room has left the decision it was called to make.
How to add a meeting bot to a call
Paste a meeting link. Dot joins as a visible participant. Nothing to install.
- Copy the Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet link for the meeting.
- Paste it into Dot. No desktop app, browser extension or IT rollout.
- Dot joins as a meeting bot in the participant list, posts a notice in the chat, and starts taking notes.
A meeting tool that is in the room, not on a laptop
Most meeting tools that promise no bot do it with desktop software listening to a microphone. That records the room without the room knowing, and it is a thing an IT team has to review, approve and deploy. Dot is the opposite: a meeting bot that joins the way a colleague does.
It appears in the participant list under a name that says what it is. It posts in the chat when it arrives. Its video tile says it is transcribing. Anybody can ask it to leave. That is the point of a visible agent, not a limitation we are working around.
What the bot does once it has joined
It takes meeting notes while the call runs, and writes the meeting minutes when it ends: decisions, owners and dates, each one tied to the moment it was said.
Say “Hi Dot” and it answers out loud, from what this series, this project and the company already decided. Unprompted it speaks for one reason: the room is about to redo something that was settled weeks ago.
Asked “Are we still going with Vendor A?”, it says: “The Vendor A decision was reversed on 2 September. You are going with Vendor B.” From Weekly Ops Sync · 2 September.
Works in Teams, Zoom and Google Meet
One meeting bot, three platforms, one memory. A decision made on Teams is still the decision when the next meeting is on Zoom. Native assistants stay inside their own product. Yours do not.
On Teams and Meet, paste a link and it joins in seconds. Zoom admits an assistant only alongside somebody who has given it permission and is in the meeting, so each person who sends Dot to Zoom meetings connects their Zoom account once, from Dot’s settings. After that a Zoom link works the same way.
Questions
Is a meeting bot the same as a notetaker?
A notetaker writes a record after the call. A meeting bot is in the room while it happens. Dot does both: it joins as a participant, takes notes, writes the minutes, and can speak when a decision is about to be redone.
Will people mind a bot in the meeting?
They can see it, which is the honest version of that question. Tools that hide capture behind desktop software skip the room’s consent. Dot is named in the list, labelled on its tile, and leaves when asked.
