  4. Select the meeting platforms you use, then select Continue.

  5. If Tactiq asks for additional access, follow the on-screen instructions and select Enable Tactiq.

💡 Note: If Chrome displays Add to Desktop instead of Add to Chrome, select it and follow the prompts to add the extension to Chrome.

Install Tactiq in Microsoft Edge

Check that Tactiq is ready

💡 Note: Tactiq uses the meeting platform's captions to create the transcript. Keep captions turned on during the meeting.

Troubleshoot installation issues

If Tactiq does not appear after installation:

  1. Open chrome://extensions/ in Chrome or edge://extensions/ in Edge.

  2. Find Tactiq and confirm that the extension is enabled.
