Record Voice Comments in Google Docs - Beep

The best way to record voice notes and audio feedback on Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Forms.
Beep for Google Docs is a voice commenting and feedback tool for Google Docs. You can comment on Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Sheets, and Google Forms with your voice.
You never have to leave Google Docs to record or listen to voice notes as everything is integrated into Docs.
Why audio comments?
Giving feedback can be challenging. You have to capture all your thoughts but also convey them in a tone that's constructive and positive. This is a lot harder to do if you're just trying to type comments. With voice, you can more quickly convey what you want to get across and make sure the tone is positive and clear.
How it works?
1. Install the extension above.
2. Visit Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, or Google Forms.
3. Add a comment and click "voice comment" to record.
That’s all it takes. A link will be inserted into the comment and that link will be auto-magically converted into an embedded player for anyone who has the extension installed. So you can listen to all the comments without leaving Google docs!
*New Feature* Automatically expire voice comments to auto-delete after a certain length of time.
Who’s it for?
Collaborative Teams
Great teams know the value of feedback. With Beep you can leave comments with a positive, constructive tone and make your team feel more connected.
Editors
Reading manuscripts or article drafts can be exhausting. With voice memos, you can convey more, faster.
Professors
Grading papers and providing feedback can take a serious amount of time. Beep saves you time by allowing you to voice your feedback and allows you to have a more personal connection with your students.

- I really like this; it’s very useful for my job. Mostly, I follow my tasks on the sheet like that. I want to say one thing: when someone sends a voice note like this, I don’t have to repeatedly call and explain things. This is very useful for the sheet. There’s a small issue—not exactly a mistake—when I go to a tab in the sheet and insert the link, if I’ve done it with my email ID, I can preview the audio because I have that option. But now, if I share the sheet link, the people I share it with open it with their own email IDs. They only get preview access for the link, meaning they have to copy and paste the link into another tab and open it separately to listen. It would be better if they could preview the audio directly by clicking on it within the sheet itself. That’s my only suggestion.

- As a teacher it helps me verbalise instructions for kids who struggle to read. Love it
- Haley Petcher Bynum
- This extension helps me leave comments on drafts. It's easy to use and faster than other extensions. I only wish I could use it for platforms outside of Google.

- Good
- Joseph VanHaecke
- I love Beep so much! While it still takes a while, I find it has improved my speed when grading student essays. Students enjoy when I leave them more personal comments as well. Highly recommend!
- Brooke Crowson
- VERY helpful as a school based SLP. It allows me to provide good articulation and reading models while the kids can still see the text.
- Ly Nguyen

- This is awesome!!!! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Ryan Boun
- I am enjoying using this to add voice notes on my google documents. I am using it to provide brief pronunciation guides throughout a document. Though it has made life much much easier than uploading separate voice notes onto google drive and linking them individually into a document, improvements could be had if (1) I am able to keep the widget open after I insert every small voice comment so that I can continue making annotations without going to the top of the screen to click on the Beep icon again (2) I can quickly delete a voicenote that I want while the widget is still open after I listen to it and decide that I want to re-record. 5 stars if these could be addressed

- Very handy little google extension that allows audio to be integrated with text.
- Hendrik Bower
- I'm pleasantly surprised. I used a different one a few years ago which was also good but not as good as this one is. This has a clean and simple interface, it's easy to use. The students can click on the link to be taken to my audio comment, which is as simple as it can be without them installing it, though of course it's going to be much easier and cleaner if they DO install it.
