A retrospective summary with AI takes about 30 minutes when you follow a structured approach. Start by gathering your project artifacts: status updates, Slack threads, ticket histories, and meeting notes. Feed these into an AI tool with a prompt that asks for wins, blockers, missed targets, and recommended changes. The AI extracts patterns across dozens of documents in seconds. On aidowith.me, the Project Recap route walks you through 10 steps to produce a polished retrospective. You'll categorize findings by theme, assign ownership to each action item, and format everything for stakeholder review. Teams using this method report cutting retro prep from 3 hours to 25 minutes. The output includes a one-page executive view and a detailed breakdown with metrics, quotes, and next-sprint priorities.

The Problem and the Fix
Without a route
- Retro prep eats 3+ hours every sprint because notes live in 5 different tools
- Action items from the last retro got buried, and 60% were never completed
- The summary reads like a wall of text, so leadership skips it entirely
With aidowith.me
- AI pulls highlights from Slack, tickets, and docs into one structured draft in under 10 minutes
- Every action item gets an owner, a deadline, and a priority tag before the meeting starts
- The final document includes a one-page executive view plus a detailed breakdown with metrics

"We used to spend half the retro meeting just reading the summary. Now the AI draft is ready before the meeting, and we spend the full hour on decisions."- Scrum Master, B2B SaaS company
Questions
You get two outputs: a one-page executive summary with top wins, blockers, and action items, plus a detailed document with supporting metrics and quotes from team members. Both export as Google Docs or PDF. The format works for sprint retros, project post-mortems, and quarterly reviews.
Most users finish in 25 to 35 minutes, depending on how many source documents they feed in. The AI handles extraction and grouping in seconds. Your main time goes into reviewing the draft, adjusting priorities, and assigning owners. Compare that to the typical 3-hour manual approach.
Yes. The route works for any project wrap-up where you need to capture results, blockers, and next steps. Adjust the input scope to cover the full project timeline instead of a single sprint. The AI handles longer timelines just as well.
