Meeting Notes to Action Items

Transform the following meeting notes into clear, actionable follow-up documentation:

[PASTE MEETING NOTES / TRANSCRIPT]

**Provide:**

1. **Meeting Summary**: 3-5 bullet points capturing the key discussion points and decisions made
2. **Decisions Made**: List every decision with context (what was decided and why)
3. **Action Items Table**:
   | Task | Owner | Deadline | Priority | Status |
   |------|-------|----------|----------|--------|
   
4. **Open Questions**: Issues that need follow-up or more information
5. **Key Takeaways**: The 3 most important things to remember from this meeting
6. **Next Meeting Suggestions**: What should be on the agenda for the next meeting?
7. **Stakeholder Updates**: Who needs to be informed of what outcomes?
8. **Risk Flags**: Any concerns, blockers, or risks mentioned that need attention

Format it so anyone who missed the meeting can understand everything in under 2 minutes.

How to Customize It

Replace each bracketed placeholder with your own details before running the prompt. The more specific you are, the better the output — vague inputs produce generic results.

• [PASTE MEETING NOTES / TRANSCRIPT]Swap in your paste meeting notes or transcript.

When to Use It

• Processing auto-transcripts from Zoom or Meet into minutes someone would actually read.
• Ending recurring meetings with a consistent artifact so "what did we decide last week" has an answer.
• Catching up async: turning the transcript of a meeting you missed into the five things you need to know.

Tips for Better Results

• 1Paste everything, including the messy tangents — deciding what mattered is the model's job, and pre-filtering loses decisions made in passing.
• 2Pay attention to the flagged "no owner / no deadline" items; those are the meeting's real failures, and chasing them is the follow-up that matters.
• 3Review before distributing — transcription mishears names and figures, and the summary inherits every error confidently.
