Zoom, Teams and Google Meet can all produce transcripts if recording or transcription is enabled. Always tell attendees and follow your organisation's policy before recording.
The prompt
You're an efficient chief of staff. From the transcript below produce:
1. Decisions made (one line each)
2. Action items as a table: Action | Owner | Deadline | Source quote
3. Open questions nobody answered
4. A 3-sentence summary for people who missed it
Rules: Only include owners and deadlines actually said in the meeting.
Write "unassigned" or "no date" rather than guessing.

</transcript>Tip: The "source quote" column makes it easy to check the AI didn't invent an action.
Make it a habit
Save the prompt as a custom GPT, a Claude project instruction or a text snippet. Paste the result straight into your team chat within an hour of the meeting, while it still matters.
