What is a Meeting Summary?
A Meeting Summary is a structured recap of a meeting that can be to all meeting participants, highlighting key discussion points, action items, and decisions made. MeetGeek automatically generates these summaries, helping teams:
Stay aligned on key takeaways;
Track action items and follow-ups;
Reduce the need to review full meeting recordings;
Share important insights with team members efficiently.
Each summary is structured based on your selected Meeting Template, ensuring it reflects the type of discussion held. While MeetGeek applies a default structure to meeting summaries, you can customize and organize them to match your needs and preferences.
Edit the Summary After the Meeting
Once the meeting ends, you can edit and refine the summary to ensure it captures the key takeaways as needed. You can:
• Remove or rephrase text to improve clarity;
• Highlight or emphasize critical points;
• Add missing action items, notes, or key decisions.
🖊️ To edit a summary, navigate to the meeting recording, click on “Summary”, and edit the content directly.
Customize Summary Formatting & Structure
You can customize your Meeting Summaries to define the structure and content you want to include. This allows you to tailor summaries based on your specific requirements, ensuring the most relevant information is captured.
What can you customize?
You can decide which topics to include, whether they are generic (e.g., participants, date, blockers, next steps, concerns, etc.) or specific to the meeting type (e.g., customer needs, social media performance, candidate motivation, etc.).
How to Customize a Meeting Summary
1. Go to the Meeting Templates page
2. Select the Meeting Template to which Summary you want to customize
3. Navigate to the "Custom Summary" tab
4. Use the text editor to write your desired structure, or paste a format created in another tool (e.g., Microsoft Word). You can create:
a) A simple summary format, such as a plain email-style recap
b) A detailed structured summary, including elements like tables for better organization
Pro tip: Use the “Preview” button to see how your customized summary will look before saving your changes.
Once saved, MeetGeek will automatically apply your custom format to all meetings using that template.
