Claude Code and ChatGPT, live in your meeting

Tana is the first agentic meeting platform for teams. Bring your own Claude Code or ChatGPT into the meeting, with the live transcript, the shared screen and your own connectors, and the work being discussed gets done before the call ends. No bot joins the call.

Changelog, October 26, 2026

Suggestions for the right person, private answers and a live transcript

Bring your own Claude or ChatGPT into the meeting, see what's waiting on you in Work, and keep notes, docs or the transcript beside the meeting chat.

Use your own Claude or ChatGPT in a meetingConnect the Claude or ChatGPT account you already have and ask it things right from the meeting. It follows the call as it happens, with the transcript, the chat and any screen that's shared, so it can draft the plan you're discussing, build a slide deck, a dashboard or a design, or search your email through the connectors you've set it up with, while the meeting is still going. Ask it in the chat or say "Hey Claude" out loud, and it also suggests what it could do from what was just said, for you to approve with a click. Its work stays private to you until you share it into the meeting. Set it up in the Tana desktop app on Mac, Windows or Linux under Settings, External agents, with the Claude or ChatGPT app (Claude Code on Linux) installed on that computer.
Work shows what's waiting on youWork opens on "Waiting on you": the meetings, chats and documents that need something from you, such as drafts to review or someone who mentioned you. Review a draft right there without leaving the page. Your tasks and your chats sit below it. Rows you've dealt with fold away, and Show cleared brings them back.
The meeting chat has tabs, and views you can keep beside itAgents is private to you: your own agent answers there, and that's where suggestions for you show up. Meeting is shared with everyone in the call, with the timeline and screenshots. Notes, Docs and Transcript open over the chat without losing what you're typing, and Dock beside the chat keeps one open in its own column. Notes are private to you, and Send to agent hands one to your agent. When you capture an outside meeting on your own, the column is just your Agents chat.

Briefs that research, tasks with due dates

Meeting briefs look up the people you meet for the first time, tasks get due dates, and you can react to and reply to messages.

Web research in meeting briefsBefore your first meeting with someone outside your company, the meeting brief says who they are and what their company does, with links to where it found that.
Due dates on tasksTasks and workflow items can have a due date. Type it the way you'd say it, like "fri 3p" or "in 2 weeks". Overdue items turn red, due items show on your Calendar, and search can filter and group by due date. A due date with a time is the same moment for everyone, shown in each person's own time zone.

Done before the meeting ends

Changelog, October 1, 2026

Live suggestions in meetings, and a new Home

Tana suggests what to do with what was just said in a meeting, Home becomes a timeline of your meetings, and each meeting comes with a brief.

Live suggestionsDuring a meeting, Tana suggests what to do with what was just said: a task in Tana, an issue in Linear, a message in Slack, or wherever your organization keeps that kind of work. Press the suggestion and Tana drafts it, or pick another tool from the arrow. You can also skip the card and say "Hey Tana, file that as a bug". The draft waits for your approval before anything is sent.
Home is a timeline of your meetingsHome is a scrollable timeline of your meetings, a day at a time, starting from now. The next meeting is at the top with its join or capture button. Each past meeting lists the proposals and drafts it left for you, and you can respond to each one from its row. Start a meeting or a capture from the top right, and right-click a meeting to pin it or open it in a new tab or panel.
Meeting briefsUpcoming meetings come with a short brief: what came out of your last meetings with the same people, what each person said they would do, and who's new. Today's meetings on Home show it, and ten minutes before a meeting the desktop app shows it with a "How can I help you prepare?" box. What you type there goes to your private chat for that meeting.

News, September 21, 2026

From AI transcriptions to AI doing work in meetings

What changes when the AI in the room sees what you see, remembers across every meeting, and does the work that follows.

Changelog, September 8, 2026

Hey Tana just does it, and a meeting calendar

Saying "Hey Tana" carries out your request without a spoken reply, a Calendar lays out your meetings and what came out of them, and Tana opens on a new Home.

"Hey Tana" listens and just does itSaying "Hey Tana" used to bring Tana into the call: a voice session opened, you were answered out loud, and the meeting waited. Now the request is heard and carried out with nothing spoken back, so you can ask in the middle of someone else's sentence and the conversation never breaks. To actually talk, ask for it: "Hey Tana, let's talk".
Calendar: your meetings by day, week or monthYour meetings laid out over time. A meeting that has already happened is not just an entry in the week, it carries what came out of it, so clicking last Tuesday gives you the summary, the outcomes, the proposals still to review and what was pinned. Meetings ahead of you open ready to edit, and you can drag across the calendar to draft one.
Home replaces TodayTana now opens on Home. Rather than a list of everything, it leads with what is coming up next and the one action that meeting needs, then what recent meetings produced, your tasks, today's pins, and the documents you have been in lately.

Work replaces Activity
Space home page

Changelog, August 28, 2026

Multitasking voice agent, plain-language search

The voice agent works on several requests in the background during a meeting, search turns a plain question into filters, and a search can be saved as a document.

The voice agent works in the background, on several things at onceAsk the agent for something mid-meeting and it goes off and does it while the conversation carries on: look something up, draft or update a document, find related notes, or act in a tool you've connected. Several requests can be running at the same time. Each is acknowledged as you make it, and the result comes back at a natural pause rather than over whoever is speaking. It also follows more of the meeting than it used to, including the day's agenda and the meeting's pinned items, captured outcomes and shared screen, so there is less to explain before you ask.
Search understands a plain-language questionTyping something like "meetings with Sarah last week" now turns into filter pills automatically, with a sparkle icon on the search field marking an interpreted query, instead of only matching on keywords. Edit a filter by hand and it becomes your own; the sentence drops away and the filters stay.

Tana auto-detects external meetings

Tana detects when you are in a Zoom, Teams, Meet, or Slack call that never made it onto your calendar, and asks whether to capture it. One click turns it into a transcript, a summary, and outcomes. Plus presenting a real document instead of your screen, Tana in Slack, and our SOC 2® Type 2 report.

Changelog, August 21, 2026

A clearer transcript, and proposals you can edit

Correct a proposal's fields while you review it, read the whole transcript in one place grouped by speaker, and the wrap-up leaves a field blank rather than guessing.

Tana detects your meetings and asks before capturing

Changelog, August 19, 2026

Meeting detection, @tana in Slack, and fields as table columns

Tana detects meetings that aren't on your calendar and asks before capturing them, you can mention @tana in Slack threads, and a type's fields become columns and filters.

Tana detects your meetings and asks before capturingTana now detects when you're in a meeting in another app and offers to capture it, so you don't have to remember to start anything. Detection does not listen to or record anything. Tana checks which apps are using your microphone, speakers, and camera, and no audio is captured, transcribed, or sent anywhere until you press "Capture Meeting". It covers calls in Slack, Chrome, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Discord, or a generic browser or call, even when the meeting is on nobody's calendar. A "Meeting in progress" card appears with "Capture Meeting" and "Dismiss". A meeting in a browser tab only prompts when your camera is on too, so music and unrelated tabs stay quiet. Dismissing or stopping a capture stops Tana asking about that meeting again. It is on by default on the desktop app, not Linux, and you can switch it off under "Detect external meetings" in Settings, Preferences.
Mention @tana in any Slack threadBring Tana into a Slack conversation by mentioning @tana in a thread. It replies in place, keeps a running chat for that thread, and can read earlier messages and shared files, so you can drop in a screenshot or doc and ask follow-up questions. It only sees what each person in the thread can see. If your Slack email doesn't match a Tana account, it replies with a link to pair the two so future mentions resolve to you.
Attribute columns, filters, and Display menu on typed entriesA type's declared fields now render as columns in its entries table and its workflow board. Member fields render as avatar chips, Link fields render referenced titles, Date and Text fields flatten to text. A pill bar next to the search field filters the list by field value: a people picker for Member fields, a typeahead picker for Link fields (constrained to the field's target types), and a range picker for Date fields. A "Display" dropdown next to the search field toggles individual columns. Active filters live in the URL, so a filtered view is shareable and returning to the panel after opening an entry restores what was filtered. Filter writes replace the history entry rather than stacking, so Back leaves the panel instead of unwinding each tweak.

Meeting links are meet.tana.inc plus a short code

Present a document or canvas in a meeting

Changelog, July 10, 2026

A pre-meeting hub

Each upcoming meeting opens on one page with what you need before it, you can present a document or canvas in a meeting, and you can pin anything to the sidebar.

One card for every meeting, before the callOpen any upcoming meeting and its left column is a single event card that holds everything you need before the call: a Join Meeting or Capture Meeting button and an Open in calendar link at the top; the full attendee list grouped by RSVP status (Going, Maybe, Not going, Awaiting reply), with anyone already in the call promoted to an In call group at the top; inline rename and reschedule for organizers; the provider's meeting URL in a copyable field alongside Move to Tana for organizers of a synced Google Meet, Teams, or Zoom event; and Invite and Copy guest link pinned at the foot of the roster. Clicking the meeting title during or after the call reopens the same card, so you can edit inline from any phase.
Present a document or canvas in a meetingPick a pinned document or canvas and choose Present document from its menu to put it at the center of the meeting as a shared reading or drawing surface. You edit it live while everyone follows along read-only, with your caret or cursor visible so they can glance ahead or drop a note in chat. Followers auto-scroll to stay with you (camera-follow for canvases), with a Follow button if they scroll away and want to catch back up. Guests in the meeting can be given access with one click, so an external attendee can follow the same live document without screen sharing.
A sidebar you can pin things toThe sidebar is now a flat primary nav with a Pinned section of your own entry points at the bottom. Drop any item onto the sidebar to pin it, drag pins to reorder, drop one onto a section header to file it there, and right-click anywhere to make a new section for related pins. Pins are per-user, so everyone curates their own set. The Library section above it is where all the organization's docs, meetings, tasks, types, chats, agents, people, skills, canvases, and spaces continue to live.

Two-way calendar sync

Events you make in Tana sync to Google Calendar or Outlook, the desktop app can capture Meet, Teams and Zoom meetings through your computer's audio, and guests get their own meeting agent.

Two-way calendar syncEvents you create and manage in Tana now sync to your connected calendar. Make an event in Tana and it appears in Google Calendar or Outlook moments later, and changes to its title or time, and deleting it, propagate out too. New connections write Tana events to your primary calendar automatically; if you connected a calendar earlier, turn it on by choosing a default calendar to write to in Calendar settings.
Capture external meetings with system audio (opt-in)On the desktop app, you can now opt into capturing Meet, Teams, and Zoom meetings through your computer's audio. A small always-on-top window appears a couple of minutes before a scheduled meeting so you can start recording in one click, and the Today toolbar has an instant record button for meetings that are not on your calendar. If a teammate is already capturing a meeting, everyone else can see it so it is not recorded twice. It is off by default while it rolls out; turn it on in settings to try it.

Let the AI schedule your meetings

The AI can propose calendar events, guests can use the meeting chat, and you can capture a single part of a meeting as a note or a task.

Let the AI schedule calendar eventsThe AI can now propose creating calendar events. It needs a title and a start time, and can also set an end time, time zone, location, description, and participants. Adding participants restricts the event to that list. It still can't change the time, title, attendees, or meeting link of an event that already exists.
Chat with everyone in guest meetingsGuests can use Chat with everyone to send and read messages in the meeting, alongside your team. To keep your organization's data private, the AI is turned off in the shared chat whenever a guest is present, with a note explaining the pause. Your own private meeting agent is unaffected.
Capture or copy a single part of the meetingEvery row in the live meeting digest gets a hover menu. Capture as turns just that part of the conversation into a note, a task, a typed item, or an artifact. Copy transcript segment copies the same stretch as text, grouped by speaker.

Bring your own tools

Tana reaches further this update: its AI can use the tools on your own MCP servers, the Tasks view groups and filters your work into bookmarkable slices, and a new search popover gets you to anything in Tana from wherever you are.

Changelog, June 11, 2026

Connect your own MCP servers

AI chat can use the tools on your own MCP servers, the Tasks view groups and filters your work, and search opens wherever you are.

Connect your own MCP serversConnect your own remote MCP servers to Tana from Settings, Custom MCP servers. Authorize a server over OAuth and its tools become available to AI chat through a linked skill, so the AI reaches for them only when that skill is in scope. Manage the connection from the skill's panel: refresh the tool catalog and allow or deny individual tools. Your connected servers are private to you.
A reworked Tasks view: grouping, filters, and quick-addThe Tasks view now groups by type by default, plain tasks first and then each workflow type under a heading that links to its definition. Filter pills for Assigned to, Created by, Type, and Space live in the URL, so a filtered view is bookmarkable and the browser's Back and Forward step through your filters. Every group heading has a "+" that creates a task already matching that group and any active filters. With nothing filtered the view shows your most recent tasks rather than an empty screen, and opening Tasks from the sidebar starts with everything assigned to you.
Search opens in a popoverThe sidebar "Search" entry opens a popover right where you are, holding the same browse interface: a search field, the filter bar, and the section index when you haven't typed anything yet. Open it from anywhere, including while editing a document, with Cmd+P on macOS or Ctrl+P on Windows and Linux. On iPad and other touch devices it slides up as a bottom sheet that stays clear of the on-screen keyboard.

Create and capture from one button in meetings

One button in a meeting creates or captures anything, new workspaces open with a guided welcome session, and documents can hold Mermaid diagrams.

One button to create and capture in meetingsDuring a meeting the toolbar now has a single "+" to create or run anything, plus a search to find and pin items. Open it to turn the live discussion into a typed item, choosing the last minute, last two or ten minutes, or the whole meeting. From the same place you can create a doc, canvas, or task for everyone or just yourself, run a summary or item extraction, or run one of your own skills.
A guided welcome session for new team membersNew workspaces now open with a guided welcome session: an agent tuned to your industry walks you through Tana in a live meeting and sets up spaces, types with filled-in examples, and a custom agent for your work. A follow-on step lists upcoming meetings from your calendar and invites you to pick one to try Tana in, switching its join link to a Tana call.
Diagrams with MermaidYou can now add Mermaid diagrams to any document. Type "/mermaid" or set a code block's language to Mermaid, then switch between a live "Preview" and the "Source". Click a diagram to open it in a pan-and-zoom view. When the AI writes a diagram, it self-corrects unsupported syntax on its own.

Outcomes run automatically when everyone leavesOnce everyone has left a call, Tana runs the wrap-up that turns the conversation into proposed items on its own. You no longer have to ask it to extract items. The summary already worked this way, and now both run off the same trigger.
Send to, one menu for routing any itemEvery item now has a "Send to" menu in its toolbar. From one place you can start a chat about it with Tana, a custom agent, or a teammate, run a skill or integration, pin it to a meeting, copy its link, or export it as Markdown.
Better filtering in Browse and SearchBrowse and Search now share one filter bar. Round pills let you scope to a space, jump straight to meetings or chats, and a type palette opens everything else, including your own types.
