Hi! My name is Rodion, and I'm part of the mymeet.ai team. Today I'll tell you about our latest innovation — a Chrome extension for recording Google Meet sessions. We've created an alternative recording method that works directly in your browser and opens up new possibilities for working with meeting information.
The Chrome extension is a logical evolution of the mymeet.ai ecosystem. Our users actively use bots for automatic recording, calendar integrations, and various video conferencing systems. Now we've added the ability to record meetings without inviting a bot — this is more stable and also works from the browser. It's especially valuable for important negotiations and situations where bot visibility might affect the meeting atmosphere or where meeting recording is critically important.
What is the mymeet.ai Chrome Extension
The mymeet.ai Chrome extension is a browser-based solution for automatic recording and analysis of Google Meet sessions. Unlike bots that join meetings as separate participants, the extension works locally in your browser and records audio invisibly to other participants.
The operating principle is as simple as possible: after installing the extension, you join Google Meet, enable recording in the extension, and the meeting is automatically recorded and then processed using all mymeet.ai capabilities. Within minutes after the meeting ends, you receive a ready transcript, AI report, and can ask questions through AI chat.
The extension uses the full functionality of the main service:
Transcription with up to 98% accuracy in 73 languages
Specialized AI reports for different meeting types
AI chat for interactive content analysis
Export results in convenient formats
It works in all Chromium-based browsers: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Yandex Browser, and others.
All recordings made through the extension are saved in your unified mymeet.ai personal dashboard along with bot recordings and uploaded files. This creates a unified information space for working with meeting data.
Comparison of Extension and mymeet.ai Bots for Meeting Recording
The Chrome extension and mymeet.ai bots solve different tasks and complement each other perfectly. The choice between them depends on your specific goals and the particular meeting's characteristics.
When to use the Chrome extension:
Confidential negotiations where recording discretion is important
Important meetings with new clients
Sensitive HR interviews
Unstable internet connection
Corporate restrictions on external participant connections
When to use mymeet.ai bots:
Mass automation of meeting recording through calendar
Working with various platforms (Zoom, Teams, Telemost)
Team collaboration with shared access to recordings
The table below shows key differences between the two approaches, helping you choose the optimal tool for each situation.

Chrome Extension Use Cases
The mymeet.ai Chrome extension shows maximum efficiency in specific situations. Understanding these scenarios will help you choose the right tool for each meeting and extract maximum benefit from the extension's features.
Sensitive Negotiations and Confidential Meetings
The extension is indispensable for situations where bot presence might cause discomfort or distrust. First meetings with potential clients, partnership condition discussions, merger or acquisition negotiations — in all these cases, recording allows you to capture important details without affecting the meeting atmosphere.
HR specialists can use the extension for candidate interviews, especially when discussing compensation, working conditions, or sensitive career questions. Candidates feel more comfortable not seeing additional participants in the call.
Meetings in Companies with Strict Security Policies
Many corporations restrict external bot connections to work video conferences for security reasons. The Chrome extension works locally in the employee's browser and doesn't require external connections, making it an ideal solution for such organizations.
Banks, government agencies, IT companies with high security requirements can use the extension to record internal meetings and contractor sessions.
Research Interviews and Focus Groups
Researchers can record in-depth interviews without distracting the respondent with technical details. UX researchers, marketers, sociologists can use the extension to record user interviews where natural participant behavior is important.
The extension works especially effectively when recording emotionally charged interviews where bot presence might affect respondent openness.
Conclusion
The mymeet.ai Chrome extension is a natural evolution of our platform that provides more flexibility in choosing recording methods for each situation. The extension complements existing bots and integrations, providing an alternative for cases where recording stability is important.
