Teachers, parents & school teams

AI notes for parent conferences and IEPs. Runs on a Chromebook or phone, nothing to install.

School districts block software installs and extensions, and back-to-back conference nights leave zero time to write clear action items. Open MeetingSidekick in a browser tab on your Chromebook, district laptop, or phone, get consent from everyone in the room or call, and turn each meeting into a clean summary with next steps. Free to start.

Four steps

Clear follow-up notes after conference night

No IT approval, no browser extension, and no bot in remote conferences.

1

Open a browser tab

Open meetingsidekick.ai on your classroom Chromebook, school laptop, or phone sitting on the table.

2

Ask permission, press Start

Follow your district consent policy, let parents or staff know you are taking notes, and start recording the room or call tab.

3

Capture decisions and goals

Click Summarize for a clear TL;DR, agreed accommodations, and follow-up action items for both teachers and families.

4

Share or save the recap

Email the recap to yourself or copy a summary-only share link while keeping the raw transcript private.

Straight answers

School policy and privacy basics first

Follow your district recording and FERPA policies. Some districts have specific rules on recording IEP meetings or storing student names in third-party cloud tools. Confirm school policy and get clear permission from everyone at the table or on the call before pressing Start.

Browser support on school devices. Desktop call capture works in Chrome, Chromium, and Edge; phones and tablets work in any modern browser. Nothing installs on your Chromebook or district laptop.

Privacy and deletion. Audio is used only to transcribe your session and is never sold or used to train AI models. You can delete any meeting and its audio permanently once your notes are filed. Free includes 2 hours of recording one time for the life of the account; Pro ($15/mo or $120/yr) adds speaker names, search across meetings, and audio replay.

Questions

Conferences and IEP notes, answered

Does it run on a school-managed Chromebook or district laptop?

Yes. MeetingSidekick runs in a browser tab with no software to install and no browser extensions to approve. Desktop call capture works in Chrome, Chromium, and Edge; phones and tablets work in any modern browser.

Can I use it just during conference week without a monthly subscription?

Yes. Free includes 2 hours of recording one time for the life of the account. If you only need extra hours for fall and spring conferences, the 5-hour pack is $9 one time and never expires.

Can parents or teachers share a summary link without sharing the full transcript?

Yes. You can create a summary-only recap link showing the title, date, duration, TL;DR, key points, decisions, and action items while keeping the full transcript and chat private.

What about school recording rules and student privacy?

Always follow your district's IEP recording rules, state consent laws, and student privacy policies, and get permission from every participant before pressing Start. Audio is used only to transcribe your meeting, is never sold or used to train AI models, and can be permanently deleted at any time.

Does a bot join a remote Zoom or Google Meet parent conference?

No. Nothing joins the video call as an extra participant. You record from a second Chrome or Edge tab on your laptop, or use your phone beside you for in-classroom meetings.
