| As of February 2, 2026, the Live Notes with Google Docs feature has been deprecated. Read AI no longer streams live transcription and summaries to Google Docs. Instead, your full meeting report is automatically saved to your connected Google Docs account after the meeting ends and processing is complete (usually about 5-15 minutes; see How long should it take for a report to finish processing?). See How do I get live notes? below for an alternative. |
There are a few ways to automatically push meeting reports with Read AI. This article explains how to push meeting reports to Google Docs, but you can see below for other methods.
Enabling the Google Docs integration
- Go to your Integrations page, find Google Docs in the Notetaking section, and click Connect:
- Go through the authorization with Google to grant the necessary permissions. You'll be sent back to the Integrations page.
- Make sure the Auto-Save Meeting Notes in Google Docs setting is turned on. This is required for Read to automatically push meeting notes to Google Docs:
By default, these Google Docs are only visible to you, but you can always change the sharing directly in Google Docs after they're created.
How it works
Finding your meeting reports on Google Docs
All meeting reports are pushed to a folder directly under My Drive called Read AI Meeting Notes. Please do not rename or move this folder. If you do, Read will create a new folder in the same location after your next meeting.
Read creates a separate document for each meeting report, named with the date of the meeting (in YYYY-MM-DD format) followed by the meeting title.
If you added Read manually, the title won't be pulled from a calendar event and may be something generic like "Teams Meeting". See Why are my meeting titles not being saved in the meeting report?
Contents of the meeting reports
Each document will look something like this:
Inside, you'll find a few sections:
- Metadata at the top (meeting title, link to read.ai, event time, platform, and participants)
- AI-generated summary, with a chapters & topics breakdown
- Action items
- Key questions
- Full transcript
To change who can see the document, click the Share button at the top right of Google Docs.
What other platforms can I push meeting reports to?
Read supports automatic push to:
- Google Docs (this article)
- Microsoft OneNote (see Saving Meeting Notes to Microsoft OneNote)
How do I get live notes?
The Google Docs integration used to support a live notes feature, which was deprecated in February 2026. If you still want live summaries or a live transcript, you can use the live meeting dashboard (see Using Read's live meeting dashboard). There you can view live notes, real-time metrics, and other tools during your meeting.
