Create clips from audio-only and botless recordings

Shared by Emily • June 30, 2026

Fellow now supports clip creation from audio-only recordings, including botless meetings and uploaded MP3 files.

Use clips to pull out a key moment from a customer call, a decision from a leadership sync, or any other audio recording where you need to share a specific excerpt without sending the full file.

Supported sources: You can create clips from any audio-only recording in Fellow, whether it was captured without a bot or uploaded directly as an MP3.

Clip output: Each audio clip exports as an .m4a file paired with a speaker-labeled transcript, so the context behind every clip stays intact.

Unscheduled notes are back in the new Fellow UX

Shared by Emily • June 29, 2026

You can create notes that aren't tied to a calendar event again, now fully supported in Fellow's new interface.

New note series from the Library: Use the + button in the Library to start a new unscheduled note series at any time, no calendar event required.

Add notes to an existing series: Once a series exists, you can add more unscheduled notes directly from the series menu in the meeting header.

A dedicated Notes section: All notes, scheduled and unscheduled, are organized under a Notes section in the Library sidebar so nothing gets buried.

Control mobile recording independently from botless recording in workspace settings

Shared by Emily • June 29, 2026

Mobile recording can now be enabled independently from desktop botless recording, giving more precise control over recording across platforms.

Mobile recording toggle: A new Mobile recording toggle in Workspace Settings lets admins enable or disable in-person mobile recording without affecting desktop botless recording settings. It defaults to ON for existing workspaces.

Compliance-friendly configuration: Admins who need to disable desktop botless recording for compliance reasons can now do so while keeping mobile recording available for in-person meetings.

New: Consent Capture for Auto-Recorded Microsoft Teams Meetings

Shared by Emily • June 29, 2026

Workspace admins can now enable a consent step for auto-recorded Teams meetings.

About an hour before the meeting, Fellow replaces the Teams join link with a Fellow-hosted consent page; the native join button is removed so all attendees route through it first.

Two consent paths: Attendees who agree are redirected to the original Teams link and join normally. Attendees who decline enter their email, are logged as having declined, and are prompted to mute their mic and turn off their camera.

Organizer visibility: Meeting organizers see a real-time warning in the recording controls listing which attendees have declined, so they can act before or during the meeting.

Per-series controls: Admins can also allow individual users to toggle consent capture on or off per meeting series.

Record the right meeting every time

Shared by Emily • June 02, 2026

Fellow now gives you a clear picture of where your recording is headed, and stops you before it goes somewhere it shouldn't.

Matched event preview before you record: When using "Record via Link," Fellow shows you the calendar event it matched based on the conference call URL before anything is captured. You see exactly where the recap will land and who it will go to, so there are no surprises after the fact.

Wrong meeting detected early: If the meeting you selected doesn't appear to match what's currently in progress, Fellow flags it before recording starts. Whether you're recording via link or directly from the app, the confirmation step catches mismatches before they become a problem.

Option to start fresh: If the matched event isn't what you intended, you can choose to create a brand new note without pulling in that event's attendees, rather than cleaning things up after the fact.

No disruption for correct recordings: Confirmation prompts only appear when something looks off. If the meeting matches, recording starts as expected.

Keep meeting series sharing under your control

Shared by Emily • May 12, 2026

Workspace admins can now prevent users from sharing entire meeting series with other people inside the organization.

A new toggle in Security settings: Disable full-series sharing in one click. The "Share series" option is removed from the meeting menu, while sharing individual notes stays available.

Defaults stay the same: Series sharing remains on by default for new and existing accounts — the new control is there when you want it.

Home panel groups have moved to the title bar in a new feature called Favorites, so the meetings you care about most are always in reach.

Your existing groups, right where you need them: All your home panel groups appear automatically in the Favorites section — no setup required.

Reorganize on the fly: Drag and drop meeting series between groups, and reorder groups themselves from the menu.

Star anything in a click: A new star icon in the note header lets you add a series to a Favorites group instantly.

Configurable session duration and periodic re-authentication for Enterprise

Emily avatar
Shared by Emily • May 12, 2026

Enterprise admins can now decide exactly how long users stay signed in, and require periodic re-authentication for an extra layer of control.

Custom session lengths for web and mobile: Set independent session durations for each, so policy matches how your team actually works.

Force re-authentication on a schedule: Even users who never log out can be required to re-authenticate at a set interval — useful for organizations with stricter security or compliance requirements.

A smooth user experience: A countdown appears as the re-auth deadline approaches before redirecting to login. Existing sessions get a grace period when the policy is first enabled, so no one is logged out unexpectedly.

Full audit trail: Every session policy change is recorded in the Account Activity audit log.

Update

Edit due dates for action items right from the side panel

A faster, more polished Chrome extension for Google Meet

Shared by Ashley • May 12, 2026

Version 2.9 of the Fellow Chrome extension brings a smoother, faster experience inside Google Meet.

Instant panel loading: The companion panel now preloads, so it opens the moment you join a call instead of reloading every time.

An animated AI Notes banner: The post-meeting screen shows a live animation while your notes are being generated, replacing the old static image.

A more native look in Google Meet: Buttons match Google Meet's styling and hover states, and Google's recording indicator is hidden while Fellow is recording to avoid confusion.

A heads-up when meetings run long: A new in-meeting warning lets you know when you're going over time, right inside Google Meet.
