Meeting Notes

Turn a transcript into a recap and action items.

What you will learn

✓Summarising transcripts
✓Extracting action items with owners
✓A reusable meeting prompt

Explanation

Paste a transcript (from your notes app or recorder) and ask for a structured recap: a short summary, key decisions, and action items with owners and due dates.

The value is in the structure — decisions and tasks pulled out so nothing slips. Ask for it in a format you can paste into Slack or a task tool.

Save the prompt and reuse it after every meeting.

Code Example

text

1	`Summarise the transcript below as:`
2	`1) 3-bullet summary`
3	`2) Decisions made`
4	`3) Action items as 'owner - task - due date'`
