Use case · Auto meeting notes

Stop paying the meeting notes tax.

PMs and EMs run 4-8 meetings a day. Either you skip the notes and forget the action items, or you spend 15 minutes after each call typing them up. Either way the day is gone. Minuta auto-generates the notes — on Zoom, Teams, Meet, anywhere.

The meeting notes tax

You finish the customer call. Three commitments were made — one of them yours, two for the SE. You promise yourself you'll write the followup as soon as the next meeting ends. The next meeting runs 7 minutes long. The followup never gets written. Friday afternoon, the customer pings: "any update on what we discussed?" — and you genuinely don't remember the third commitment.

The other failure mode: you write the notes diligently, but it costs you 15 minutes per meeting. Six meetings a day = 90 minutes of pure note-typing. That's not a meeting notes problem; that's a "your day is gone to clerical work" problem.

Where it pays off

Customer call

Followup email at zero effort

Call ends. Minuta generates a TL;DR, key points, and action items grounded in the transcript. Review the result, copy it into the follow-up email, and edit as needed.

Sprint planning

Action items into your tracker

Sprint planning runs 60 minutes. Five committed work items. Minuta extracts them as a structured action-item list — owner, deliverable, deadline if mentioned. You drop them into Linear/Jira without re-reading anything.

1-on-1

Notes for your private record

1-on-1 ends. You usually write a 4-line summary into your manager doc. Minuta has it ready: what they said, what you committed, action items for next session. Paste, done.

How Minuta plugs into your meetings

Open Minuta before the call starts. Hit record. Run the meeting as you always would — Minuta captures system audio in the background and turns it into structured notes the moment you stop.

  • Works on Zoom, Teams, Meet, FaceTime, and any other call that plays through your computer's system audio. No platform-specific plugin or admin install.
  • Live transcript runs during the call (you can ignore it and just talk).
  • Call ends → request a structured summary with TL;DR, key points, and action items grounded in the transcript. Review before sharing.
  • Export as plain text, markdown, or copy-paste straight into your tool of choice. No CRM lock-in.

Why pick Minuta over Zoom AI Companion or notetaker bots

  • Minuta captures desktop system audio independently of a specific meeting-platform integration.
  • No meeting bot joins or appears in the participant list. Cloud AI processing requires internet.
  • Saved in your desktop app. Transcripts, TL;DR, and action items live in the local SQLite database — review, export to Markdown, or delete anytime. Especially useful for sensitive customer or 1-on-1 calls.
  • The 7-day trial includes 120 minutes total. After that, Free includes 60 shared transcription and translation minutes per month.
