Automatic Meeting Notes & Action Items

Automatically transcribe your meetings with AI and generate action items based on what was discussed

Problem

Problem

Knowledge workers typically have a lot of meetings throughout the day. If you add time required to prepare your meetings and do your actual work, there is no time left to do proper meeting notes. Therefore often Action Items are not followed up and are easily forgot.

Solution

You can automate taking meeting notes by adding a virtual AI assistant to your virtual meetings. This assistant will send you a summary of what was discussed, the actual transcript and some action items after the meeting.

Evaluation

Transcription and summarization already works pretty well. Sometimes the transcription cannot really tell who said what but this will also become better with the next update from GPT4o.

The biggest downside of the current models is that they don't really have all the necessary context so they cannot really understand all the Action Items. Still you having the transcriptions readily available is super helpful and makes it easier for you and others who might have missed the meeting to catch up.

Great use case! I expect that all major meeting software providers like Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams will add similar features to their software natively as well.
