Honeit Chrome Extension

Call, text and schedule candidates from any browser tab.

⬇️ Download the extension from the Chrome Web Store here. A Honeit account is required.

We know that constantly switching tabs breaks your focus. The Honeit Chrome Extension stays open next to whatever you're working on. You can find contacts, add new ones from LinkedIn, call, text, schedule, upload recordings and add the Honeit Notetaker to your Google Meet, Teams or Webex calls without leaving the page.


Table of Contents


Getting started

  • Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store and click Add to Chrome.

  • Pin it to your toolbar. Click the puzzle piece icon in Chrome, then click the pin next to Honeit so the extension is always one click away.

  • Sign in with your Honeit account.

  • Open the extension. Click the Honeit icon in your toolbar or the Honeit "H" tab on the right edge of your browser window. The extension opens as a side panel and stays open when you switch tabs.


A quick tour of the extension

When you open the extension, you'll see these sections from top to bottom:

  • Active Workspace: Shows the Workspace you're working in. Use the dropdown to switch.

  • How would you like to connect? Quick actions to Call, Text, Schedule, Add notetaker or Upload a call.

  • Search contacts: Find any Honeit contact by name, email or phone number and open their record.

  • Auto-fill new contact: Copies the name, email and phone number from the page you're viewing into a new contact.

  • Add new contact: Lets you create a contact by entering their details yourself.

  • Upcoming Calls: Lists your next scheduled calls. Click See all to view the full list.


Working in Workspaces

If you recruit for more than one client, Workspaces give you a separate, client-branded profile for each one. The extension always works in the Workspace shown under Active Workspace.

To switch Workspaces:

  • Click the Active Workspace dropdown at the top of the extension.

  • Select the Workspace you want to work in.

  • The Workspace name and logo update to confirm the switch.

Why it matters

Contacts you add and calls you schedule from the extension are tied to the active Workspace. As in the rest of Honeit, new contacts are saved to the active Workspace and also to your default Workspace, which shows contacts from every Workspace.

⭐ Tip: Check your Active Workspace before you add a contact or schedule a call. That way everything is saved under the right client.


Adding a new contact

Before you can call, text, schedule, add the Notetaker or upload a recording, the person must be saved as a contact in Honeit. You can add a contact from the extension in two ways.

Add new contact (manual)

  • Click Add new contact.

  • Enter the contact's name and email address. An email address is required.

  • If you plan to call or text them, add a phone number and select the country code.

  • Add a LinkedIn URL if you have one.

  • Confirm the contact's time zone. Click the pencil icon to change it.

  • If you like, choose a project from Add to project.

Auto-fill new contact

Open a page that shows the person's details and click Auto-fill new contact. Honeit copies their name, email and phone number into a new contact form. Review the details before you save.

Adding a contact to a project

If you select a project from Add to project (optional), Honeit adds the contact to that project. Any call you start from this screen is added to the project too. This keeps candidates and their calls organized by role without extra steps later.


Adding contacts from LinkedIn

Once the extension is installed, LinkedIn profiles show an "Add to Honeit" button next to Message. It's the fastest way to turn a LinkedIn profile into a Honeit contact.

Here's how:

  • Open the person's LinkedIn profile.

  • Click Add to Honeit. The extension opens a New contact form.

  • Honeit fills in the details the profile makes available, such as name, email, phone number and LinkedIn URL.

  • Review the details. Fill in anything missing, such as an email address, and confirm the time zone.

  • If you like, choose a project from Add to project.

  • Click Call now to call them right away. You can also use the icons below it to text, schedule, add the Notetaker or upload a call.

What gets added
Add to Honeit only copies information that is visible to you on the profile. If someone hasn't made their email address or phone number public on LinkedIn, those fields stay blank and you'll need to fill them in yourself.

⭐ An email address is required. A contact can't be saved to Honeit without one. If the profile doesn't show an email address, enter it yourself before saving.


Calling, texting and scheduling a contact

Search for a contact or add a new one, then choose how you'd like to connect.

  • Call: Starts a Honeit call with the contact from your browser. The contact needs a phone number on their record.

  • Text: Sends a text from your Honeit phone number. You need a Honeit phone number, and the contact needs a phone number on their record. If you don't have a Honeit number yet, email support@honeit.com.

  • Schedule: Books a call with the contact. Choose a date and time and Honeit sends the invitation.


Adding the Honeit Notetaker to a meeting

If you're starting a meeting on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Webex, the extension can send the Honeit Notetaker to it. The Notetaker joins right away and records the audio. The transcript, summary and highlights are saved in Honeit.

Here's how:

  • Join your meeting or open it in another tab, then copy the meeting link.

  • In the extension, search for the contact you're meeting with, or add them as a new contact.

  • Click Add notetaker.

  • Paste the link into Meeting link URL.

  • If you like, choose a project from Add to project. Honeit adds the meeting to that project.

  • Click Add Honeit Notetaker.

The Notetaker asks to join within moments. Click Admit or Approve to let it in. Honeit records audio only, never video.

⭐ Use this at the start of your meeting. The extension sends the Notetaker immediately. To schedule it for a future meeting, schedule the call from your Honeit dashboard instead. Here's how.


Uploading a call recording

If you recorded a call outside Honeit, you can upload it to the contact's record. Honeit then handles it like any other Honeit call.

Here's how:

  • Search for the contact, or add them as a new contact. A contact is required before you can upload.

  • Click Upload a call.

  • Under Recording file, drag and drop your file or click to browse.

    • MP3 audio files can be up to 500 MB.

    • MP4 video files can be up to 100 MB.

  • Under When did this call happen?, enter the date and time of the call. Honeit uses this as the call date.

  • If you like, choose a project from Add to project. Honeit adds the recording to that project.

  • Click Upload.

⭐ Tip: Check the call date before you upload. It defaults to the current date and time, so change it if the call happened earlier.


Using call guides during a call

You can search for and open any of your call guides from the extension, even during a call. This is especially helpful on Notetaker calls, because the guide doesn't appear inside Google Meet, Teams or Webex.

If you'd rather use a printout or a second screen, you can also download the call guide as a PDF.


Managing your upcoming calls

Upcoming Calls lists your next calls with the contact's name and the date and time. Click a call to open, reschedule or cancel it. Click See all to view every upcoming call.
