Caret Quickstart Record and transcribe your first meeting in under 5 minutes.
Prerequisites: Install Caret and sign in with Google.

Get started in 3 steps

1

Start recording

Click ”+ New” in the sidebar and pick online meeting or in-person meeting. Already have an audio file? Just upload it and we’ll transcribe it for you.
Since we’ve already connected your Google Calendar, you can click on any upcoming meeting to start recording right when it begins.
2

Let Caret work

Once recording starts, you’ll see a small popup in the upper right corner. We’ll transcribe everything in real-time and figure out who’s speaking.
Just let Caret run in the background while you focus on your meeting.
3

Review your notes

When you’re done, click “Stop” in the popup. After a minute or two of processing, you’ll have:
  • Summary: Key points, decisions, and action items
  • Transcript: Full conversation with speaker names
  • Analysis: Who spoke when and for how long (Enterprise plan only)

Key features to try

  • Ask AI questions - Try asking “What were the main action items?” to get instant answers.
  • Add private notes - Jot down personal thoughts that stay private to you.
  • Templates & workflows - Set up automation so every meeting gets handled the same way.
