How do I capture a meeting?

Capturing meetings automatically

When the Supernormal app is running on your Mac, it automatically detects and helps you capture your meetings when using Chrome, Safari, Slack, Arc, Atlas, Comet, and Dia. We will also now be able to auto-capture Microsoft Teams meetings hosted in browser.

This works for both:

  • Scheduled meetings on your connected calendar

  • Ad hoc meetings you join through links (Google Meet, Zoom, Slack Huddles, Teams, etc.)

When a meeting is detected, the Supernormal app will send you a notification.

For scheduled meetings, click Join to start capturing

For ad hoc meetings, click Start capture to begin

Starting a capture manually

You can also start a capture manually from the the Supernormal app at any time, even for non-meeting conversations (like a live discussion without a meeting link). To do this, open the Supernormal app and click the New capture button in the left sidebar.

While a meeting is being captured, you’ll see a floating panel on your screen. When you leave the meeting, the Supernormal app will automatically stop capturing. You can also click Stop at any time to end the capture manually.

Why do captures sometimes show “Meeting at 9:02” instead of the meeting name?

the Supernormal app uses your calendar event to name a capture. If the meeting you’re capturing is tied to a calendar event, the Supernormal app will display that event’s title.

For ad hoc meetings (like spontaneously starting a Slack Huddle with a coworker) or live conversations captured manually, there isn’t an event name to pull from. In those cases, the Supernormal app uses a default title: “Meeting at [time]”.
