The problem
Taking notes in a call means splitting your attention three ways — listening, typing and finding somewhere to put what you typed. Switch to a notes app and you miss the point that mattered.
What changes
Your notes live right inside the call. When the meeting ends they’re already attached to it, so the follow-ups don’t depend on your memory of who said what.
How Humble helps
1
Open Humble inside the call

The Humble panel sits alongside Google Meet, so your notes and the conversation share one screen.
2
Note things as they happen

Type decisions, actions and questions as they come up — without leaving the call or hunting for the right doc.
3
Find everything afterwards

Your notes stay attached to the meeting on your timeline. Open it later and the context is all there.
Set it up
- Join a Google Meet call in your browser.
- Open the Humble extension.
- Click the note field and type as the call goes on.
- Click Save.
- Open your Timeline tab later to find the notes with the meeting.
