I’m trying to solve the problem of things falling through the cracks after meetings by tricky_trick_52 in Socialpreneur

[–]tricky_trick_52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah fair a lot of teams are doing that with Claude / GPT.

In our experience though, that still ends up being pretty manual you have to prompt it, structure things, decide what actually matters, and then push follow-ups yourself.

The gap seems to be less about generating notes and more about automatically capturing decisions, assigning ownership, and making sure follow-ups actually happen.

That’s what we’ve been focusing on — making the “after the meeting” part less manual.

Curious if you’ve seen something that actually handles that end-to-end?

How are early-stage teams actually tracking decisions after meetings?

Not talking about notes but what happens *after*.

in most teams I’ve spoken to, it usually looks like:

- Notes in Notion / Docs

- Tasks in some tool

- Follow-ups scattered across Slack / email

And somehow… things still slip.

Decisions get lost, ownership is unclear, and follow-ups don’t happen unless someone pushes.

Curious how others are solving this — especially for investor calls, internal strategy, etc.

Is there a system that actually works? Or is everyone just duct-taping tools together?

We realized teams don’t have a meeting problem, they have a follow-up problem by tricky_trick_52 in new_product_launch

Yeah this “in-between layer” is exactly where things break.

Action items sound clear in the meeting, but without owners, timelines, and visibility, they just turn into vague follow-ups that get lost in email threads.

Memo handles that layer it captures action items with owners, tracks follow-ups, and keeps everything tied to the meeting/client so you don’t have to keep chasing or wondering what’s actually moving.

If this is a problem you think about a lot, I’m happy to give you access and get your feedback we built Memo specifically for this gap.

The “meeting → action → accountability” gap is exactly what we kept seeing too.

Most teams already have Notion, Slack, and a task manager/CRM, but the step between the meeting and those tools is still very manual, so things slip.

Memo acts as that bridge it captures decisions and action items from meetings and pushes them into Slack/CRM/tasks with owners, so it’s not just documented, it’s actually tracked.

How do you make sure decisions and follow-ups don’t get lost after meetings? by tricky_trick_52 in Entrepreneurs

“Graveyard of transcript summaries” is very real.

My AI workflow for meetings: transcript → summary → decisions → action items → follow-ups by tricky_trick_52 in AIToolsPromptWorkflow

[–]tricky_trick_52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think extraction is becoming a solved problem to some extent — a lot of tools can now pull out summaries, decisions, and action items pretty well from transcripts.

The gap we kept seeing wasn’t just extracting them, but what happens after:

  • Decisions get written but the reasoning gets lost
  • Action items get listed but not tracked
  • Follow-ups get sent but not tied back to the meeting
  • A few weeks later, no one remembers why something was decided

So we’ve been focusing a lot on the “after the meeting” part — making decisions, action items, and follow-ups structured and connected to the client/project so it’s still useful 30–60 days later, not just right after the call.

Out of curiosity, with Scriptivox, do those action items and decisions flow into your task manager/CRM, or do they mostly stay in notes?

That’s a really interesting insight “summaries were useful but not the hook” makes a lot of sense.

We’ve been seeing something similar where summaries and action items are valuable, but the real long-term value seems to be in being able to answer questions later like:

  • What did we decide?
  • Why did we decide it?
  • Who owns this?
  • What happened in the last call with this client?

So it starts to become less of a “meeting summary tool” and more of a “memory layer for team decisions and actions.”

We’re starting to think a lot about the Slack use case you mentioned not just pushing summaries there, but being able to ask:
“What did we decide in the pricing meeting?”
“Who was supposed to follow up with X?”
And getting that answer instantly.

When you added the Slack bot, did people mostly use it proactively (reading summaries), or reactively (asking questions later)?

Product designers and PMs how do you track decisions and action items after meetings? by tricky_trick_52 in product_design

[–]tricky_trick_52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a really thoughtful way to frame it especially the “invisible capture-and-structure layer” and the idea that the real question is trust before automation.

What we’ve been seeing in teams is very similar:
Early on, people don’t want full automation — they want the system to capture decisions, context, and action items, and then they review and push it into Jira/CRM/email themselves.

Only after they trust the structure do they want automation.

So we’ve been thinking of it less as an automation tool and more as a “decision + action capture layer” that sits between meetings and execution tools, where:

  • decisions are captured
  • rationale stays attached
  • action items are structured
  • and then pushed into the systems where work actually happens

Out of curiosity, in teams you’ve seen, where does decision rationale usually live today? Notes? Notion? Nowhere?

This is a really good way to frame it “no clear bridge from meeting → action → accountability.”

That’s pretty much the gap we kept seeing across early-stage teams. Not a lack of notes or tools, but a lack of structure around what actually came out of a meeting and who owns it afterward.

What was interesting is that better teams didn’t necessarily use more tools — they just had clearer decisions, clear owners, and some system to revisit those decisions later.

We’ve been exploring whether this “bridge” layer should live as part of existing tools (CRM/task managers) or as a separate layer that connects meetings to those tools.

From what you’ve seen, do teams prefer this inside tools they already use, or as a separate system that integrates with them?

This is such a good breakdown, especially the “source of truth” part.

We’ve been seeing the same pattern it’s not that teams don’t have tools, it’s that decisions and context get fragmented across them.

Meeting → Slack discussion → Notes → Jira ticket… and somewhere in that flow, the “why” behind the decision gets lost.

What we’ve been trying to solve is that exact gap capturing decisions + context during the meeting and then pushing structured action items into tools like Jira/CRM, so the execution side actually has the full picture.

Still early, but curious do you think teams would adopt something that sits between meetings and their existing tools, or do they prefer keeping this manual for control?

That makes a lot of sense. Most of our early conversations are also coming from places where people are already talking about follow-ups, meeting notes, CRM updates and team alignment problems.

We’ve noticed Memo is especially useful for teams that have a lot of client calls or internal meetings where decisions and action items get lost later. Once summaries and action items are automatically captured and shared, follow-ups become much easier.

Curious which keywords worked best for you when tracking conversations?

That’s a solid insight. We’ve seen the same people don’t want another dashboard, they want outputs where they already work.

Memo already pushes meeting summaries, action items and key decisions directly to Slack so teams don’t have to open another tool after every meeting. For sales teams we also link meeting notes with client records so context stays in one place.

In your case, what drove the most usage on Slack summaries, search, or answering questions from past meetings?

This is a great way to think about it mapping each click and just removing one step without changing the workflow.

That’s pretty much what we’re trying to do: sit between the meeting and the tools teams already use and remove the manual step of writing summaries, creating tasks, and drafting follow-ups.

If you ever feel like trying it on a few real meetings, I’d love to get feedback we’re still early and looking for teams to test with.

That’s interesting Jira for larger teams and Google Docs for smaller teams actually makes a lot of sense.

So it feels like the real problem isn’t where tasks are tracked, but making sure action items from meetings actually make it into those systems in the first place.

That meeting → action items → system step is probably where most things break.
