An AI summary generator takes raw text - meeting notes, transcript, or bullet points - and converts it into a structured summary with decisions, action items, and owners. On aidowith.me, the Meeting Notes and Action Plan route covers 8 steps in about 30 minutes to build a complete AI summary workflow. You create a 3-part prompt: context (meeting type and attendees), input format instructions, and output structure (decisions, actions, deadlines, owners). Users who complete this route generate meeting summaries 10x faster than manual notes - from 25 minutes to under 3 minutes per meeting. The route also covers how to handle 4 specific meeting types differently: status updates, decision meetings, brainstorms, and client calls, each with a tailored prompt template.

The Problem and the Fix
Without a route
- Meeting notes sit in a document for days because nobody has time to turn them into a clean summary and send it to the team.
- You type notes fast during a meeting but can't turn raw bullet points into a coherent summary without 20+ minutes of rewriting.
- Action items get buried in meeting notes and never tracked, so the same issues come up in every subsequent meeting.
With aidowith.me
- Build a 3-part summary prompt: meeting context, input format rules, and output structure template. Test it on 3 real meeting notes and refine - done in 20 minutes.
- Use 4 tailored prompt templates for different meeting types: status updates focus on decisions and blockers, brainstorms on top ideas and next steps, client calls on commitments and follow-ups.
- Set a 5-minute post-meeting habit: open the prompt template, paste your notes, review the AI output, and send it to the team. No meeting should go without a summary again.

How It Works
Build your core summary prompt
Write the 3-part prompt template: meeting type and attendees (context), note format you'll paste (input), and summary sections you need (output: decisions, actions, owners, deadline). Test on a real past meeting.
Create 4 meeting-type variations
Adapt your core prompt for status updates, decision meetings, brainstorms, and client calls. Each variation adjusts the output structure to match what matters most in that meeting type. Save all 4 in one doc.
Build the 5-minute post-meeting habit
Right after each meeting, open your prompt library, select the matching template, paste your notes, review and lightly edit the output, and send it. Time yourself - the goal is under 5 minutes per meeting.

Questions
The key is a meeting-type parameter in your prompt. For a status update meeting, the output should highlight blockers and decisions. For a brainstorm, it should capture top ideas and prioritize them. For a client call, it focuses on commitments made and next steps with owners. The Meeting Notes and Action Plan route on aidowith.me includes 4 tailored prompt templates, one for each meeting type, built and tested in 8 steps.
The best input is a list of bullet points taken during the meeting, not full sentences. Bullet points give AI the key facts without filler. Include speaker names or roles (even abbreviated) when recording decisions or action items - 'PM: approved Q3 timeline' tells AI who decided what. The route covers a simple note-taking format that takes 10 seconds to set up and makes AI summary generation significantly more accurate.
Yes, with caveats. Most AI tools handle transcripts up to 50,000 words in a single prompt (about 4-5 hours of conversation). For longer transcripts, the route includes a chunking method: split the transcript into 30-minute segments, summarize each, then summarize the summaries. This keeps the output accurate and organized. ChatGPT and Claude both support this approach; make sure you're using a paid plan for the longer context window.
