100-word summary
Notion just gave workspace admins a way to enforce consent before any AI meeting transcription starts. The new control, rolled out March 12, lets IT lock down recording permissions so nobody can hit "record" without notifying other participants first. Admins can even auto-play a consent message at the start of each transcription. The update also adds configurable retention windows and local audio storage options for Enterprise customers. The shift matters because it moves consent from a personal choice to a company-wide policy. For legal teams tired of chasing down rogue recorders, it's a single toggle that finally aligns AI note-taking with compliance requirements.
