What you'll need

  • Meeting notes or a rough summary of what was decided
  • Any AI chat assistant

The steps

  1. Jot down what was decided and who owns what, even roughly.
  2. Paste the prompt and your notes.
  3. Send it the same day, while it's fresh.
  4. Reference it at the start of the next meeting.

The prompt

Turn my rough meeting notes into a short follow-up email that keeps people accountable.

[paste your rough notes or bullet points from the meeting]

Format as: what was decided (1-2 lines), action items with owner and rough deadline, and one line about when we'll check back in. Keep it short enough that people actually read it.

Chase an overdue item

[Person] hasn't done [action item] and it's now overdue. Write a friendly, non-nagging nudge.

What you'll get

A short, action-focused recap that turns meeting talk into actual follow-through — sent same-day, so nothing slips.

If it's not quite right

  • No clear owners yet? Add "Flag any action item that doesn't have an owner as a question for me."
  • Want it shorter? Add "Bullet points only, no intro paragraph."
