How to Record Meetings with a Bot

Record meetings automatically by inviting a Bluedot bot into Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams — manually, or automatically via your calendar.

A bot has some advantages over recording your screen directly: it joins at the scheduled time and leaves when the meeting ends, which cuts down on user error; some companies require a visible recording indicator for compliance, which a bot provides; and it keeps recording even for long sessions or if your computer goes to sleep.

This is how you invite a bot to record your meetings in Bluedot:

Step 1: Connect Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar

Step 1: Connect Your Calendar

  1. Go to the Bluedot dashboard.

  2. Go to Automation > Integrations.

  3. Connect your Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar, then click Continue and wait for it to finish connecting. This is what lets Bluedot know which meetings the bot should join.

Step 2: Enable the Meeting Bot

  1. Go back to Automation.

  2. Click Meeting Bot.

  3. You'll see a list of your upcoming meetings. Either select which ones the bot should join, or toggle on Record all your meetings so it joins every future meeting automatically.


How the Bot Works

  • It joins a few minutes before the scheduled start time.

  • It leaves when the meeting ends, or when everyone else has left.

  • It shows up as "[Your name]'s AI NoteTaker" — you'll need to click Admit to let it into the meeting.

You can customize your bot's appearance, and here's how to do that.


Recording an Ad Hoc Meeting

  1. Go to the Meeting bot page.

  2. Paste the URL of the meeting you want recorded, and click Record.

  3. After a few seconds, the bot will join the meeting — click Admit when prompted.
