Use cases / Team leads

Every decision,
on record.

Standups, one-on-ones, and planning. Written up for you.

Engineering and product leads spend a large share of the week in meetings and the rest remembering what was agreed in them. MeetingDebrief records the meetings, extracts owners and deadlines, and lets you dictate the updates that follow.

The problem

Your calendar is full of meetings nobody writes down.

Standups, one-on-ones, and planning sessions produce decisions all week. Most of them survive only in whoever was paying attention, until someone asks what was agreed.

Writing it all up is a second job. Skipping it means the same discussion happens again in three weeks, with less certainty about who said what.

How it works for you

01

Record the recurring meetings

Standups, one-on-ones, planning, and retros. Start a recording from the app or with a global keyboard shortcut, and keep your attention on the people in the room.

02

Get owners and dates

The Action Items template lists who committed to what and by when. Summaries know the date of the meeting, so "by Friday" means the Friday after that meeting.

03

Dictate the updates

Hold the shortcut in Slack, your issue tracker, or a review comment and say the update. It is typed in and saved to your dictation history.

What you get

Action items with owners

Every commitment from the meeting, with a name and a deadline attached. Copy it straight into the ticket or the channel.

Date-aware summaries

Relative references like next quarter, end of the month, or by Friday resolve against the day the meeting happened.

Notes per meeting

Keep an agenda or private notes for each one-on-one. Notes are searchable and included as context when you chat with the meeting.

Search across months

Find the retro where the team first raised the deploy problem. Search covers transcripts, summaries, notes, and dictations.

Summaries that stay honest

Edit a transcript or re-transcribe it, and older summaries are flagged as out of date instead of quietly describing a transcript that changed.

Time saved, measured

The Insights dashboard estimates the hours you did not spend writing up meetings, and what that time was worth.

Every one-on-one, with your own notes.

Add talking points before the meeting and follow-ups after it. The transcript, summary, and notes live on one page.

See where the hours went.

Insights counts the meetings you debriefed and the time you got back, based on your own hourly rate.

  1. 09:15

    Standup is recorded. The summary shows two blockers and who is unblocking them.

  2. 10:00

    One-on-one with a new engineer. Your notes from last week are next to this week's transcript.

  3. 11:30

    Sprint planning. Action items come out with owners and dates that match the calendar.

  4. 11:40

    You dictate the planning recap into the team channel instead of typing it from memory.

  5. 16:00

    Someone asks what was decided about the release date. You search, find the planning meeting, and quote the timestamp.

FAQ

Do my team members need a license too?
Only if they want to record or dictate on their own computers. You can record meetings you attend on your machine, and share summaries by copying them or through the Markdown export. Licenses cover a number of devices you choose at checkout.
Can it tell who said what?
When you record your microphone and system audio, transcripts label each line as Me or Other. Naming individual speakers is not available yet.
Can I summarize the same meeting in different ways?
Yes. Generate as many summaries as you like from different templates, such as Action Items for the team and General for your own notes. You can also write your own templates.
What happens to recordings of sensitive one-on-ones?
They stay on your computer. You can delete the audio for any meeting and keep the transcript, or set audio to be removed automatically after a period you choose.
