Turn meeting notes into a useful follow-up

Keep decisions, actions and open questions in one reviewed note.

1. Read a sample you can inspect

No account connection or automation is needed. Use an AI chat you already have access to.

Fictional neighbourhood meetup notes, 8 October.
Mira: We agreed to hold the AI session on Saturday at 10:00.
Omar: I will check whether the room is available. I can report back on Thursday.
Mira: I can draft the invite after the room is confirmed.
Dev: Maybe we should record the session. No decision was made.
Group: Bring laptops. No ticket price was discussed.

Use notes you are allowed to share. Remove personal or confidential details. Ask permission before recording a real meeting.

2. Create your first draft

Start a fresh AI conversation. This prompt includes the sample, so it is ready to paste.

Extract decisions and action owners

Turn these notes into four sections: Decisions, Actions (owner/deadline), Open questions, and a short follow-up draft. Use only the notes. Mark missing details “not supplied”. Separate a suggestion from an agreed decision. Do not approve recording or invent a price.

SAMPLE INPUT
Fictional neighbourhood meetup notes, 8 October.
Mira: We agreed to hold the AI session on Saturday at 10:00.
Omar: I will check whether the room is available. I can report back on Thursday.
Mira: I can draft the invite after the room is confirmed.
Dev: Maybe we should record the session. No decision was made.
Group: Bring laptops. No ticket price was discussed.

3. Compare an illustrative result

Decision: Saturday at 10:00; participants bring laptops.
Action: Omar checks the room and reports back Thursday.
Action: Mira drafts the invite after room confirmation; no deadline supplied.
Open: recording, ticket price and room confirmation.
A recording was proposed, not approved.

An example of a reviewed result. Your model may phrase it differently. Compare the facts and boundaries.

  • Separate agreed decisions from suggestions.
  • Keep each owner and deadline tied to the original note.
  • Use “not supplied” for missing dates, prices and confirmations.

4. Audit the answer

Replace the draft placeholder with the answer you received. Then check the AI audit against the original input yourself.

Find unsupported claims in the meeting summary

Compare the draft against the original notes. Quote the short supporting phrase for each decision and action. List invented owners, deadlines, confirmations or prices. Suggest corrections. Do not silently rewrite the facts.

DRAFT TO CHECK
[Paste the draft you received.]

5. Repeat it with one real example

  1. Start with the sample

    Copy the fictional input below. Read what is known and what is missing.

    Check: You can identify one detail that the model must not invent.

  2. Open your AI chat

    Use an AI chat you already have access to. Start a fresh conversation and paste the first prompt.

    Check: The prompt contains the input, the output format and the boundaries.

  3. Compare the first draft

    Read the illustrative result, then compare it with the answer you received. Outputs can differ.

    Check: The result is grounded in the sample rather than merely sounding confident.

  4. Audit with the second prompt

    Paste the answer into the review prompt. Inspect each flagged issue yourself.

    Check: A second AI answer is a checklist aid, not independent proof.

  5. Adapt one real example

    Replace the fictional notes with anonymised notes you already have permission to use. Ask for a family, work or study format. Review before sending the follow-up.

    Check: Your actual constraints replace the fictional ones; unresolved facts remain questions.

  6. Save one useful artifact

    Save your input, reviewed output and one correction. Explain the check you used to a neighbour.

    Check: You can repeat the task without this lesson and know when to verify a source.
