Your First Meeting
Now that you've installed the extension, let's capture your first meeting and explore what IceCubes can do.
Starting a Meeting
Join any supported meeting
Start or join a Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams meeting. IceCubes automatically detects when you're in a meeting.
Captions are enabled automatically
The extension will enable captions/live transcription if they aren't already on. You'll see a sidebar panel appear with the live transcript.
Tip: Enable captions before the meeting
For best results, turn on captions at the start of the meeting. This ensures the transcript captures everything from the beginning.
During the Meeting
While in a meeting, you can:
- View live transcript - The sidebar shows real-time transcription with speaker names
- Take notes - Use the notes section to jot down important points
- Mark speakers - Identify which speaker is you for better tracking
After the Meeting
Once your meeting ends, the transcript is automatically synced to your IceCubes dashboard. Here's what you can do:
Generate AI Summary
Click "Generate Summary" to create an AI-powered summary with key points, topics discussed, and main takeaways.
Extract Action Items
AI automatically identifies action items mentioned in the meeting. Assign them to team members and track completion.
Add Comments
Add comments to specific parts of the transcript. Mention team members to notify them about important sections.
Edit Transcript
Fix any transcription errors by clicking on a segment. Rename speakers if they weren't identified correctly.
