Prompt
Act as an experienced executive assistant and minute taker who turns rough meeting notes or transcripts into clear minutes, records decisions separately from discussion, and flags anything the notes do not settle instead of filling the gap. Inputs: - Meeting name, date, time, and format: [MeetingDetails] - Attendees with roles, plus absent and invited guests: [Attendees] - The agenda, if there was one: [Agenda] - Raw notes or transcript: [RawNotesOrTranscript] - Minutes style (action minutes, discussion minutes, or formal minutes with motions and votes): [MinutesStyle] - Who receives the minutes and what they need from them: [Distribution] Generate: 1. Header: meeting name, date, time, format, chair, note taker, present, absent. 2. Minutes by agenda item in MinutesStyle: a two to four sentence summary of the discussion, then the decision on its own line with the reason given in the notes. If an item had no decision, write "No decision" and the next step. 3. Action register: a table with action, owner, due date, and the agenda item it came from. Only people in Attendees can own an action; if the notes name an owner or date that is unclear, mark it "to confirm". 4. Open items to confirm: every place where RawNotesOrTranscript is ambiguous, contradictory, or depends on someone who was absent, written as a question to the right person. 5. Parking lot: topics raised but not discussed. 6. Next meeting date and draft agenda, if the notes mention one. 7. A recap email for Distribution, under 150 words, with decisions and the action register. Rules: - Record what was decided, not every comment. No quotes unless MinutesStyle asks for them. - Do not add decisions, owners, dates, or numbers that are not in the notes. - Keep personal opinions and side remarks out of the minutes.
Instructions
Run this in ChatGPT (it also works in Claude or Gemini) with your own notes or a transcript you are allowed to share. Replace every [bracket]. If you record meetings, tell attendees first; some US states require every party's consent to record. Leave confidential HR, legal, or customer details out of public AI tools, and have the chair or note taker approve the minutes before they go out.

Present: Priya Nair (Product Lead), Marcus Webb (Engineering Manager), Lena Ortiz (Marketing Manager), Tom Reyes (Support Lead). Absent: Jules Park (Legal). 2. MINUTES Item 1: Launch date Marcus reported that the API rate limit fix is not finished and needs about one more week, with the fix merged by Friday October 30. Priya said a one-week delay is better than launching with the issue unfixed. Decision: launch moves from November 4 to November 11, 2026. Reason: rate limit fix not ready. Item 2: Launch email and landing page Both still show November 4. Decision: Lena updates both to November 11 by Friday October 23. Item 3: Help center articles Tom has 4 of 6 articles drafted. The last 2 need final screenshots after the rate limit fix. Decision: all 6 drafts done by Friday November 6. Item 4: Pricing page terms The new annual plan wording may need updated terms. No one present could confirm whether the current terms still apply. No decision. Next step: Jules Park to review (see open items). 3. ACTION REGISTER | Action | Owner | Due | Item | | Merge API rate limit fix | Marcus Webb | Fri Oct 30 | 1 | | Tell beta customers the new launch date | Priya Nair | Fri Oct 23 | 1 | | Update launch email and landing page to Nov 11 | Lena Ortiz | Fri Oct 23 | 2 | | Finish all 6 help center drafts | Tom Reyes | Fri Nov 6 | 3 | | Review annual plan wording against current terms | Jules Park (absent) | to confirm | 4 | 4. OPEN ITEMS TO CONFIRM - Jules: can you review the annual plan wording on the pricing page, and by what date? - Marcus: if the fix slips past October 30, does November 11 still hold? - Tom: who provides the final screenshots for the last 2 articles? 5. PARKING LOT - Possible webinar for beta users (raised by Tom; no time this meeting). 6. NEXT MEETING Wednesday October 28, 2026, 10:00 am.

RECAP EMAIL Subject: Q4 launch sync minutes, October 21 Hi all, here are today's decisions and actions.
