How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

After every meeting, someone has to reread the notes, figure out who owns what, and chase people down to make sure decisions do not get lost. That follow-up work is easy to skip when the week gets busy.

Who it fits

Project managers, team leads, and executive assistants who run frequent meetings.

How it works

  1. A new document is uploaded to your Meeting Notes folder in Drive
  2. AI reads it and pulls out attendees, decisions, and action items with owners and due dates
  3. The summary is logged to a spreadsheet with a link to the original notes
  4. A formatted summary is posted to your team's Slack channel
What you get

Decisions and owners captured after every meeting

It reads your meeting notes and posts a summary of decisions and action items with owners to your team's Slack.

What you get

A logged meeting summary and a Slack post showing decisions and who owns each follow-up.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and a Slack workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
