Meeting Summaries

5 prompts

Three sentence exec summary

1/30

✨ What it does

Writes a three sentence summary and a 12 word page title from the notes you paste. Fill any [VERIFY] sentence from your memory of the room before you @-mention anyone.

I pasted meeting notes into this Notion page. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Meeting: [MEETING NAME] on [DATE]. Write a 3 sentence summary a busy lead can read in 20 seconds: what we met about, what we decided, what happens next. Use only the paste. If a decision or next step is missing, write [VERIFY] in that sentence and do not invent one. Keep names only if they appear in the notes. Output the three sentences, then a 12 word title for the page.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the raw notes, typos included, so the summary cannot outrun what was said.

Timed beat list

2/30

✨ What it does

Rebuilds the meeting as numbered beats with minute marks only when the notes include stamps. Leave unstamped beats as [VERIFY] instead of guessing the clock.

Turn these notes into a timed beat list for [MEETING NAME]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Stated length: [MEETING LENGTH]. Return a numbered list of beats with an approximate minute mark only if the notes include a time or an agenda stamp. If there is no stamp, write [VERIFY] in the minute column rather than inventing a clock. Each beat is 15 words and must quote or paraphrase a line from the paste. Skip small talk. Do not invent a topic we did not cover.

💡

Pro tip: If you recorded the call, paste the transcript with timestamps for a cleaner beat list.

Agree versus still open

3/30

✨ What it does

Splits pasted notes into agreed items and still-open items, each with a copied quote. Move a [VERIFY] line to agreed only after you confirm someone said yes.

Split these notes into two lists: We agreed, and Still open. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Topic: [TOPIC]. Each item is one line with a short quote in quotation marks copied from the paste. If an item sounds decided but no one said yes, put it in Still open and tag it [VERIFY]. Do not invent a consensus to tidy the page. Limit each list to 8 items. End with one sentence on the open item that blocks the rest.

💡

Pro tip: A nod in the room is not a yes. Keep it in Still open until the notes say so.

Parking lot extract

4/30

✨ What it does

Pulls parked and deferred topics into a table with the triggering phrase. Do not create a future meeting to hold an item unless the notes already name one.

Extract the parking lot from these notes for [MEETING NAME]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. List every topic someone parked, deferred, or said later. For each, copy the triggering phrase, name the person if the notes name them, and write one line on why it was parked only if the notes say why. If why is missing, write [VERIFY]. Do not invent a future meeting to send the item to. Output a table with columns Item, Who said it, Why parked, and Suggested next page.

💡

Pro tip: Create a real Notion page for each parked item only after you confirm it still matters.

Shareable versus hold back

5/30

✨ What it does

Splits notes into a shareable summary and a hold-back list for one named group. Confirm every Hold back row before you share the page.

Mark each block of these notes as Shareable with [SHARE GROUP] or Hold back. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Hold back anything that names a person not in [SHARE GROUP], a salary, a health detail, a password, or a customer who has not agreed to be named. If you are unsure, mark Hold back and write [VERIFY]. Do not invent a redaction that changes the meaning. Return two Notion-ready toggles: Shareable summary, and Hold back list with the reason in 8 words.

💡

Pro tip: Name the share group as a team, not as everyone, so the split stays strict.

Action Items

5 prompts

Owner and date checklist

6/30

✨ What it does

Turns pasted notes into a 12 item checklist with owner and due date only when the notes name them. Assign every [VERIFY] owner in the room, not in Notion AI.

Pull action items from these pasted notes into a Notion checklist for [PROJECT]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. One item per line in the form Owner, Task in 12 words, Due date. Copy owner names and dates only if they appear. If a task has no owner, write [VERIFY] in Owner. If a task has no date, write [VERIFY] in Due date. Do not invent a person or a Friday. Limit to 12 items. End with a count of items that still need an owner.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the attendee list at the top so owners can be matched to real names.

Unowned commitment hunt

7/30

✨ What it does

Finds will and let's lines that still lack an owner, and suggests a name only when the same notes already show that person on similar work. Leave [VERIFY] rows unassigned until someone in the room claims them.

Hunt for commitments that have no owner in these notes. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. A commitment is a will, I'll, we should, let's, or need to line. List each one with the exact phrase, the speaker if named, and a suggested owner only if that person already appears as doing similar work in the same paste. If you cannot suggest from the paste, write [VERIFY]. Do not invent a volunteer. Output a table with columns Phrase, Speaker, Suggested owner.

💡

Pro tip: Read the phrase column aloud in the next standup so silent commitments get a name.

Blocked versus ready to start

8/30

✨ What it does

Sorts tasks into Ready and Blocked using only dependencies the notes name. Unclear tasks stay tagged [VERIFY] until you rewrite them as a real next step.

Sort the tasks in these notes into Ready to start and Blocked. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Project: [PROJECT]. A task is Blocked only if the notes name a dependency, a missing input, or a waiting-on person. Copy that blocker in 10 words. If the notes are silent on blockers, put the task in Ready and do not invent a blocker to sound careful. If a task is unclear, write [VERIFY] and leave it out of both lists. Max 8 per list.

💡

Pro tip: A vague we should is not a task. Tag it [VERIFY] and rewrite it with the owner.

Effort labels without hours

9/30

✨ What it does

Sizes actions as S, M or L from wording in the notes, with no hour counts. Items without a size cue stay [VERIFY] until a human estimates.

Label each action in these notes as S, M or L using only cues in the paste such as this week, a quick ping, or a full rewrite. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Do not assign hours. If there is no size cue, write [VERIFY] instead of a letter. Inventing a day count would throw the sprint off. Return a table with columns Task, Size, Cue you used. Then list the three L items I should surface first in [NEXT MEETING].

💡

Pro tip: Use the L list as the first three lines of the next agenda, not as a backlog dump.

Merge two meeting action lists

10/30

✨ What it does

Merges action items from two pastes, keeping the owned version when they match and flagging wording clashes. Resolve each [VERIFY] row with the owner before you close either meeting page.

I pasted notes from two meetings about [PROJECT]. Meeting A: [PASTE NOTES A]. Meeting B: [PASTE NOTES B]. Merge the action items into one Notion checklist. When the same task appears in both, keep the version with an owner and a date. When the wording conflicts, show both phrases and tag the row [VERIFY]. Do not invent a third wording to smooth them. Do not drop a task that appears in only one paste. End with a count of unique tasks.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the newer notes second so conflicts are easier to spot.

Decisions and Owners

5 prompts

Decision log table

11/30

✨ What it does

Builds a decision log with a copied quote per row and a separate Leaning group. Fill [VERIFY] deciders from the attendee list before you treat a line as closed.

Build a decision log from these notes for [MEETING NAME] on [DATE]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Table columns: Decision in 15 words, Decided by, Date, Replaces if the notes say so, and Link to the triggering quote. Copy names and dates from the paste only. If a decision has no named decider, write [VERIFY] in Decided by. Do not invent a vote count. If something sounds like a leaning, put it under Leaning, not Decision. Max 10 decision rows.

💡

Pro tip: A leaning is not a decision. Keep it out of the log until someone owns it.

Reversal risk notes

12/30

✨ What it does

Adds a short reversal note to each decision using only reversal cues in the paste. Governance steps that were never said stay tagged [VERIFY].

For each decision in these notes, write a reversal risk note. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Decisions I see: [PASTE DECISIONS] or extract them if I left this blank, but only from the paste. For each, give: What we decided, What would reverse it according to the notes, and Who would have to change it if named. If the notes never say how to reverse it, write [VERIFY] and do not invent a governance step. Keep each note under 40 words.

💡

Pro tip: Use this before you publish the log, while people still remember why they chose.

Who was actually in the room

13/30

✨ What it does

Splits names into Present, Mentioned but not present, and Unclear. Confirm Unclear rows before you @-mention people who may not have been there.

Build an attendance block from these notes for [MEETING NAME]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. List Present, Mentioned but not present, and Unclear. Put a name in Present only if the notes show they spoke or were listed as attending. Put Unclear names under Unclear with [VERIFY]. Do not invent an attendee from a team name. Do not assume a Slack handle is a person unless the notes map it. Output as three Notion lists I can paste under the title.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the calendar invite line if you have it, so Present is not only who spoke.

Explicit versus implied decisions

14/30

✨ What it does

Separates explicit yes-or-no decisions from implied ones, and tags implied rows so they cannot sneak into the log. Ask the closing question in the thread the same day.

Sort these notes into Explicit decisions and Implied decisions for [TOPIC]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Explicit means someone said decide, go, approved, or we will. Implied means the group talked as if it were true. Copy a quote for each row. Tag every Implied row [VERIFY] because treating it as closed would invent a decision. Do not move an implied item to explicit. End with one question I should ask in the thread to turn the riskiest implied item into an explicit yes or no.

💡

Pro tip: Send the implied list back to the room. Silence is not approval.

Vote still needed

15/30

✨ What it does

Lists items that still need a written yes, with who spoke and who is missing. Fill missing roster names before you @ the group.

Find items in these notes that still need a vote or a written yes from [DECISION GROUP]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. List each item with the open question in 12 words, who already spoke, and who in the group has not spoken if the notes name the group. If the group roster is not in the paste, write [VERIFY] for missing names rather than inventing a voter. Do not invent a deadline. Output a short Notion callout I can drop at the top of the page.

💡

Pro tip: Put the callout at the top of the page so the vote is the first thing people see.

Follow-up Drafts

5 prompts

Recap email from the paste

16/30

✨ What it does

Drafts a 120 word recap email with three decisions, three actions and one question. Replace every [VERIFY] before you send from your own address.

Draft a recap email of about 120 words to [RECIPIENT GROUP] from these notes. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Include: 3 bullets of what we decided, 3 bullets of actions with owners if named, and 1 question. Keep the tone plain, no exclamation marks. If an owner or date is missing, write [VERIFY] in that bullet. Do not invent a decision to make the email feel finished. Put the subject line on its own first line, 8 words or fewer.

💡

Pro tip: Send the recap the same day, while people can still correct the notes.

Channel post under 80 words

17/30

✨ What it does

Writes an 80 word channel post that leads with this week's decision or the open question. Add the page link and confirm names before you post.

Write a channel post under 80 words for [CHANNEL NAME] based on these notes. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Lead with the one decision that changes work this week. Then two actions with owners if named. End with a link placeholder [PAGE LINK]. If there is no decision, lead with the open question and tag it [VERIFY]. Do not invent a win. Do not @ people who are not in the notes. Output only the post, ready to paste.

💡

Pro tip: Post in the channel where the work lives, not in a general dump.

One person chase note

18/30

✨ What it does

Drafts a 70 word chase note that quotes the assigning line. Stop if the paste does not actually name that person as owner.

Draft a chase note of about 70 words to [PERSON NAME] about the task they took in these notes. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Task I think they own: [TASK]. Quote the line that assigns it. Ask one question: confirm owner, confirm date, or send the artefact. If the notes do not actually assign this person, stop, write [VERIFY], and do not invent an assignment. Keep it friendly and specific. No guilt. Output the note plus the quote on its own line.

💡

Pro tip: Send the chase as a comment on the Notion page so the quote stays attached.

Hold request text

19/30

✨ What it does

Writes calendar hold title, body and required list from open items in the notes. Skip the hold if the paste never asked for a follow-up.

Write text I can paste into a calendar hold for the follow-up of [MEETING NAME]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Length I can book: [HOLD LENGTH]. Include purpose in 20 words, required people only if named as owners of open items, and the two questions we must answer. If the notes never asked for a follow-up, write [VERIFY] and do not invent a meeting. Do not add optional attendees from thin air. Output title, body, and required list as three blocks.

💡

Pro tip: Keep the hold short. A 25 minute slot forces the two questions, not a replay.

Customer safe recap

20/30

✨ What it does

Rewrites internal notes into a 100 word customer-safe recap using only the public fact list. Drop any next step that still needs an internal date.

Rewrite these internal notes as a customer-safe recap for [CUSTOMER NAME] at [CUSTOMER ROLE]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Public facts I may share: [PASTE PUBLIC FACTS]. About 100 words, plus 3 next steps if they appear in the public list. Strip staff debate, cost, and any name not on the public list. If a next step would need an internal date, write [VERIFY] and drop that step. Do not invent a promise. Inventing a delivery date they did not hear would break trust.

💡

Pro tip: Have one other person read the recap before it goes to the customer.

Recurring Meeting Hygiene

5 prompts

Diff against last week

21/30

✨ What it does

Diffs two weeks of pasted notes into still open, new, done, and missing. Confirm Missing items before you celebrate them as shipped.

Diff this week's notes against last week's notes for [STANDUP OR RITUAL]. This week: [PASTE THIS WEEK]. Last week: [PASTE LAST WEEK]. Return three lists: Still open from last week, New this week, and Done because it disappeared and last week marked it done. If a disappeared item was never marked done, put it in Missing and tag [VERIFY]. Do not invent a done state. Do not assume silence means shipped. Limit each list to 8 lines.

💡

Pro tip: Paste last week's action list, not the whole page, so the diff stays readable.

Standing agenda gaps

22/30

✨ What it does

Marks standing agenda items Covered, Skipped or Unclear against this week's paste. Use the suggested next agenda only after you confirm the skips.

Compare these notes to our standing agenda for [MEETING NAME]. Standing agenda: [PASTE AGENDA]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Mark each agenda item Covered, Skipped, or Unclear. For Skipped, copy the nearest line that shows we moved on, or write [VERIFY] if the notes never mention it. Do not invent a reason we skipped. End with a suggested agenda for next time that drops two items we never cover and adds one open question from the notes.

💡

Pro tip: If an item is Unclear three weeks in a row, drop it from the standing agenda.

Repeat issue tracker

23/30

✨ What it does

Tables issues that show up across several pasted meetings, with phrase variants and last named owner. Confirm messy counts before you call something chronic.

Find issues that repeat across these pasted notes from several meetings about [TOPIC]. Notes pack: [PASTE SEVERAL MEETINGS]. List each repeating issue with: phrase variants, how many pastes it appears in, and the last owner named if any. If a count is unclear because the paste is messy, write [VERIFY] rather than inventing a frequency. Do not invent a root cause. Output a table sorted by how often the issue appears, max 8 rows, plus one question for the next meeting.

💡

Pro tip: Paste three or more recaps. Two meetings are not a pattern.

Attendance pattern from rolls

24/30

✨ What it does

Builds an attendance pattern from pasted rolls without turning counts into percentages or staffing advice. Check Unclear names against the invite.

From these pasted attendance rolls for [MEETING NAME], build a pattern table. Rolls: [PASTE ATTENDANCE LINES]. Columns: Name, Meetings present as written, Meetings listed absent as written, and Unclear. Copy only what the rolls say. If a name appears once with no present or absent mark, write [VERIFY]. Do not invent a percentage. Do not recommend firing or replacing anyone. End with two names whose status is Unclear so I can check the invite.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the roll as names per date, one date per line, so the table can add.

Aged carry-over items

25/30

✨ What it does

Lists open items that appear across dated pastes, oldest first, with first and last seen dates. Fill missing dates from the page history before you shame a stall.

Find carry-over items that have aged across these dated notes for [PROJECT]. Notes: [PASTE DATED NOTES]. An item is aged if it appears in more than one dated paste and is still open. For each, give first seen date, last seen date, and last named owner. If a date is missing, write [VERIFY] and do not invent a week. Do not invent a reason it stalled. Sort oldest first. Max 10 items. End with one line I can paste as a meeting opener.

💡

Pro tip: Open the meeting with the oldest item, not the newest fire.

Share-out Versions

5 prompts

Exec one screen recap

26/30

✨ What it does

Compresses pasted notes into a 120 word exec recap with a one sentence ask. Leave Ask tagged until the notes actually contain a request.

Turn these notes into a one screen recap for [EXEC ROLE]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Sections: What changed, Decision we need, Risk if we wait, and Ask in one sentence. Max 120 words total. Use only facts in the paste. If the ask is not in the notes, write [VERIFY] in Ask and do not invent a budget or a headcount. Do not add a metric the notes lack. Output as Notion headings I can pin at the top of the page.

💡

Pro tip: Pin this at the top and keep the raw notes under a toggle.

New hire reading version

27/30

✨ What it does

Rewrites notes for a new hire with a short context blurb and a glossary. Undefined acronyms stay [VERIFY] until someone on the team writes the real meaning.

Rewrite these notes so a new hire on [TEAM NAME] can follow [PROJECT] without the backstory. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Add a 40 word context blurb using only terms defined in the paste. Then a glossary of acronyms that appear, with a plain phrase if the notes define them, or [VERIFY] if they do not. Then the summary. Do not invent a definition. Do not invent history from before the paste. Keep the whole page under 250 words.

💡

Pro tip: Ask a real new hire to read it once. The glossary is for them, not for you.

Partner safe version

28/30

✨ What it does

Builds an 8 bullet partner-safe recap from the shareable list only. Joint steps keep no date unless that date was already shareable.

Create a partner-safe version of these notes for [PARTNER NAME]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Shareable facts: [PASTE SHAREABLE FACTS]. 8 bullets max, plus 2 joint next steps only if they appear in the shareable list. Strip roadmap dates, costs, and third parties. If a joint step has no date in the shareable list, write [VERIFY] and keep the step without a date. Do not invent a joint win. Output a Notion page body I can duplicate into a shared workspace.

💡

Pro tip: Duplicate into the shared workspace rather than inviting the partner to the internal page.

Engineering versus sales cut

29/30

✨ What it does

Splits one paste into two 6 bullet cuts, one for engineering and one for sales, without repeating bullets. Internal dates stay out of the sales cut.

Split these notes into an engineering cut and a sales cut for [LAUNCH OR TOPIC]. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Each cut is 6 bullets. Engineering gets constraints, bugs, and owners of technical next steps. Sales gets customer-facing changes, dates we can say, and open questions from buyers if the notes include them. If a date is internal only, write [VERIFY] and keep it out of the sales cut. Do not invent a customer quote. Do not copy the same bullet into both cuts.

💡

Pro tip: Publish the two cuts as linked Notion pages so each team can comment in their own thread.

FAQ from unanswered questions

30/30

✨ What it does

Turns unanswered questions into an FAQ with answers copied only when the same paste later answers them. Everything else stays tagged until a human replies.

Build an FAQ from questions in these notes that nobody answered. Notes: [PASTE MEETING NOTES]. Meeting: [MEETING NAME]. List up to 7 questions copied as asked. Under each, write Answer not in notes and [VERIFY], unless the same paste later answers it, in which case copy the answer in 25 words. Do not invent an answer to look helpful. End with a suggested owner for collecting answers only if that person is named as following up in the notes.

💡

Pro tip: Drop the FAQ at the top of next week's agenda so the questions get real answers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Paste. These prompts assume the notes sit in the page or in the prompt. Workspace Q and A can miss a messy recap. Paste the raw notes, fill the brackets, then run Notion AI on that page so owners and dates come from what was said.
It might if you ask for a tidy list. These prompts tell it to copy names and dates only when the paste has them, and to tag gaps as [VERIFY]. You assign the rest in the room or in a comment.
Yes. Paste the transcript into the page, then run the summary, action, or decision prompt. If the transcript has timestamps, the timed beat list can use them. If it does not, leave minute marks tagged rather than guessing.
Use the customer-safe recap with a public fact list in its own bracket. Anything not on that list stays out. Have a colleague read it before it goes to the customer, because Notion AI cannot know which nickname is still sensitive.
Keep them out of the decision log. The explicit versus implied prompt tags them [VERIFY] and gives you a yes or no question to post in the thread. Treat silence as still open, not as approval.
