Anyone else experimenting with AI agents that join live meetings, not just summarize them after?

Most AI meeting tools I’ve seen work the same way, they record the call, then hand you a summary afterward. Feels like the more interesting direction is AI that actually participates during the meeting, presenting slides, taking live notes, answering questions in real time, that kind of thing.

Curious if anyone here has messed around with this. What’s been the hardest part for you, getting a bot to reliably join a call in the first place, handling real-time audio, or something else entirely? I’ve been digging into it lately and the “just getting a bot into the room” part turned out to be way harder than I expected.

You could build something around this, but it’s not a tool I’d personally use. I wouldn’t want an agent disrupting the flow of a meeting.

The meeting summaries are good though and some people I know use them.

The most clean and non-intrusive AI meeting I have used lately is Notion meetings. It captures and organizes the notes really well into bullet points.

Welcome to the forum @Julie10

What about AI agents that can give brief summaries at the end of each agenda item?

I think watching a video of the part of a meeting where an AI bot / agent gets involved seems full of some promise.

If all / most bots give summaries at the of meetings, that’s feedback.

Feedforward is getting information that you can actually use during the meeting, so can avoid having to schedule other meetings to go over points not covered in the previous meeting.

Pardon me, but using AI as a notetaker for meetings seems to miss the point.

There’s human nuance, alignment, context, and accountability that isn’t captured.

AI can record what was said during a meeting, but not subtle head nods, hesitations, pauses, or shifts in energy.

No weight is given to the importance of ideas based on past performance of attendees, office politics, or organisational culture.

It will completely ignore unspoken tension when responsibilities such as deadlines are assigned.

Meetings are not just minds transferring information, they serve the purpose of building trust, debating ideas, and securing commitment.

This events could one day become something people never get to experience.

Happy coding

For me, a tool like that would be really useful.

Yeah, I’ve heard about it. Some of my friends told me it didn’t live up to their expectations, but I’ll give it a try.

Jumping in since this is close to something we’ve been building.

The concerns raised here are real and we thought about them a lot. @QuincyLarson the disrupting meeting flow one is the thing we spent the most time on - AgentCall only speaks at natural pauses and never talks over someone mid-sentence. It knows who is speaking at any moment and waits.

The nuance point is fair but that’s really a critique of passive note-takers, not active agents. AgentCall isn’t a note-taker - you give it a specific job, like live researcher, data puller, or action item tracker, and it only speaks when it actually has something relevant to contribute. The rest of the time it just listens.

The feedforward framing earlier in this thread is actually the closest thing to how we think about it - information you can actually use during the meeting, not a summary you read after.

What we built is an AgentSkill - one line to install, works with Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, and 20+ other agent frameworks. The agent joins as a real participant with live voice and speaker-level listening, not a bot sitting in the corner. Multiple agents can even join the same call with distinct roles simultaneously.

If anyone wants to try it - agentcall.dev , first 6 hours completely free.
