Transcribe & Summarize Meetings with AI

Why it helps

Nobody remembers who agreed to what by Friday. AI note-takers capture the full transcript, pull out decisions and action items, and hand you a recap — so you can actually pay attention in the room.

The workflow

  1. Clean up the audio first. Run Krisp to strip background noise and echo so the transcript comes out accurate instead of garbled.
  2. Add a note-taker to the call. Otter-ai joins and produces a live, speaker-labeled transcript you can search later.
  3. For sales and customer calls, use Fathom to auto-record, timestamp key moments, and generate a summary the second the call ends.
  4. Review the auto-summary and fix any misheard names or numbers.
  5. Share the recap in your team channel and assign the action items the same day.

Tips

  • Tell attendees at the start that the call is being recorded — it's courtesy and often legally required.
  • Ask the tool for "decisions, action items with owners, and open questions" rather than a raw summary.
  • Star the key moments during the call so the highlight reel writes itself.

Bottom line

Krisp cleans the input, Otter-ai transcribes everything, and Fathom turns customer calls into ready-to-share recaps. Set it up once and every meeting documents itself.
