The Clarky Notetaker

Clarky has a built-in AI notetaker. It joins your Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams calls, records them, and writes AI meeting notes from the transcript. Every meeting lands in Clarky with the recording, the notes, and the full transcript, matched to the calendar booking it belongs to and linked to your CRM contacts by attendee email. You can ask Clarky questions about any meeting and get answers straight from what was said. It works two ways, and you can use both at once:
  • Clarky bookings: any confirmed booking with a video link gets recorded automatically.
  • Your Google Calendar: connect your calendar and the notetaker joins every meeting with a video link, even ones that were never booked through Clarky. No event types or booking links required.
Plan availability: The Clarky Notetaker is available on Standard plans and above. Syncing a third-party notetaker (like Fellow) works on all plans. See Plans & Billing.

Works on Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams; joins about a minute before the meeting starts

Your Name and Photo

Give the notetaker a custom name and profile picture so it joins meetings as part of your team

Turn It On

1

Open Meeting Recordings settings

Go to Settings > Meeting Recordings in your workspace and flip on the Clarky Notetaker.
2

Choose what gets recorded

Two toggles control coverage: Record Clarky bookings and Record Google Calendar meetings. Calendar recording needs a connected Google Calendar (set up under Calendar > Settings).
3

Make it yours

Set the notetaker name and upload a photo (your company logo or a headshot). That is the identity everyone sees when it joins a meeting. Left alone, it joins as “Clarky Notetaker” with a “Clarky is recording” badge, so everyone on the call knows the meeting is being recorded.

Control It Per Meeting

  • From the Calendar screen: meetings from your connected Google Calendar appear alongside your bookings. Click one and use the Record with Clarky Notetaker switch to record or skip just that meeting, without changing your workspace default.
  • Record a meeting right now: on Calendar > Recordings, click Record a meeting, paste any Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams link, and the notetaker joins immediately. Great for meetings on someone else’s calendar.

What Happens After a Meeting

When the meeting ends, Clarky automatically:
  1. Transcribes the recording and writes AI notes: a TL;DR, key points, decisions, and action items.
  2. Stores the recording so you can watch or listen to it later inside Clarky.
  3. Matches it to the booking it belongs to, using the attendee emails and the meeting time.
  4. Links matched attendees to your CRM, adding a meeting activity to each matching contact and company timeline.
  5. Notifies your team (notification preferences are configurable per user under Notifications).
Notes and the transcript usually land within a few minutes of the meeting ending.

Recordings on Your Calendar

  • In the week and month views, bookings that have a recording show a small video icon on the event, and calendar meetings that will be recorded show one too.
  • In the list view, recorded meetings show a Recording label.
  • Opening a booking shows a Recording section that jumps to the notes and transcript.

The Recordings Screen

Find every recording under Calendar > Recordings. The list shows when each meeting happened, how long it ran, who attended, and which booking and CRM contacts it matched. Click any recording to open it:
  • Notes tab: the AI-generated summary, decisions, and action items.
  • Transcript tab: the full conversation, grouped by speaker.
  • Recording tab: play the video or audio of the meeting. Playback keeps going when you switch to the Notes or Transcript tabs, and the video pops out into a floating picture-in-picture window so you can read along.
  • Ask about this meeting: a chat panel that answers questions using only the notes and transcript. Try “What were the action items?”, “Summarize the key decisions”, or “What objections came up?”
While a meeting is still being transcribed, the Notes and Transcript tabs show a progress state and update on their own; notes usually land a couple of minutes after the meeting ends. Want the storage space back? Delete video (or audio) under the player permanently removes the file after a confirmation, while the notes and transcript stay.
Meeting activities are also searchable from Ask Clarky, so you can ask things like “when did we last meet with Acme?” from anywhere.

Using a Third-Party Notetaker Instead

Already paying for a notetaker like Fellow? Clarky can sync its finished recordings instead of (or alongside) the built-in notetaker:
1

Copy your webhook URL

Under Settings > Meeting Recordings, the Fellow card shows a unique webhook URL for your workspace.
2

Add the webhook in Fellow

In Fellow, open User settings > API, MCP & Webhooks > Webhooks, add a webhook pointing at the URL, and subscribe it to the AI Note Generated event.
3

Save the signing secret

Copy the signing secret Fellow gives you (it starts with whsec_) into the Signing secret field in Clarky and save.
If both the Clarky Notetaker and a third-party notetaker cover the same meeting, you will get two copies of it. Pick one recorder per meeting source.
