What each one does

AI Meeting Notes

  • Extracts action items with owners and deadlines from any meeting notes or transcript
  • Creates clean summaries with key decisions and open questions
  • Auto-saves every meeting in organized files you can search later
  • Manages an integrated to-do list so you can track and complete action items
  • Works with any format: Zoom transcripts, voice memos, email threads, Slack conversations

Meeting Notes

  • Structures notes with meeting header, agenda, decisions, action items, and next steps
  • Assigns each action item a specific owner and deadline to ensure accountability
  • Captures decisions with context explaining why they were made
  • Tracks open questions with owners responsible for finding answers
  • Adapts format for different meeting types like 1:1s, sprint planning, stakeholder syncs, or product reviews

When to pick each one

Reach for AI Meeting Notes when…

  • You just finished a meeting and need to turn messy notes into clear next steps
  • You're reviewing an Otter or Fireflies transcript and want action items pulled out instantly
  • You need to check what was decided in past meetings or find open tasks by person
  • You want a simple to-do tracker that's fed directly from your meeting notes

Reach for Meeting Notes when…

  • You're leading a meeting and need to document what was decided and who's doing what
