Highlights and summaries are two of MeetGeek's core features. They give you quick, accurate information about what was discussed — without listening to the recording or reading the full transcript.

In this guide:

A meeting summary is an overview of your conversation, compiled from the top highlights of the call. MeetGeek creates it automatically — no action required.

Think of a summary as the most important moments of a call, in chronological order. A typical summary runs about 15% of the meeting length — so a 30-minute meeting yields up to a 5-minute summary.

To watch one, click Play Summary on the meeting page. MeetGeek plays the highlights back to back, skipping the unimportant parts.

A highlight is a snippet of conversation that contains noteworthy information — detected automatically by MeetGeek or created manually by a user. Each highlight includes a tag, a short video or audio snippet, and the related transcript. Highlights are also rephrased and included in your meeting summary email.

Each highlight can be shared, edited, or deleted.

You can share highlights individually or in bulk.

Share one highlight: hover over it in the transcription. You'll get two options — create a shareable link, or send it directly to a tool like Slack.

Share multiple highlights: select them individually or use filters in the Highlights section, then click Share highlights to send them to the tool of your choice.

A highlight has three parts:

Edit any part by clicking it — edits auto-save.

To delete a highlight, hover over it in the transcription and choose delete. This removes the tag from the transcript (without deleting that part of the conversation) and removes the highlight from the Highlights section on the right.

Creating highlights is one of MeetGeek's main superpowers. Since no two meetings are alike, there are several ways to define them — all managed from the Meeting Templates page.

By default, every meeting uses the General meeting template (basic plan) and Auto-detect (paid plans), which includes a standard set of highlights:

Free-plan users can edit the General template and add or remove highlights. Pro and Business users can access a template library or build their own with custom highlights. Here are the ways to define them:

These are the default highlights in the General meeting template applied to any meeting. They're available on every plan and in all supported languages, and you can edit or add your own at any time.

MeetGeek analyzes your conversation and tags it with four out-of-the-box AI-based highlights:

Define specific keyword combinations that trigger a highlight whenever a participant mentions them. Common examples relate to your competitors, company-specific abbreviations, or feature names — but it can be anything.

To create one, open the Meeting Templates tab (you'll see the AI-based highlights listed there) and click Add highlight. Say you build an email marketing platform and want feedback whenever users mention a competitor — the highlight might look like this:

where:

After a meeting ends, you can create highlights by hand. Go to the transcription section of the meeting page, select a portion of the transcript, and click Highlight.

Name the new highlight and it appears immediately in both the Transcript and Highlights sections. In Highlights, you'll see the rephrased, concise version.

MeetGeek can also gauge the quality of your meetings by computing relevant key performance indicators. An overview of your meeting's KPI values appears in your AI Summary, under AI Insights. There are two types:
