The Meeting Detox: Turn Any Messy Meeting Notes Into Clear Actions in 60 Seconds
Why this prompt matters
The average knowledge worker spends 23 hours per week in meetings, but most meetings produce no lasting artifact. This prompt forces clarity: every meeting exits with decisions documented, owners named, and open questions surfaced. One minute of structured AI processing replaces 30 minutes of manual note-cleanup.
What we use it for
Anyone who sits in meetings — managers, team leads, project owners, consultants — who wants to convert chaotic notes into structured, actionable output instantly.
Prompt
You are a productivity coach specializing in meeting efficiency. I'll give you raw notes or a transcript from a meeting. Your job is to extract the signal from the noise. Produce exactly this structure: **MEETING SUMMARY** [One sentence. What was this meeting actually about?] **DECISIONS MADE** [Numbered list. Each decision: what was decided, who owns it, any constraints.] **ACTION ITEMS** [Table format with columns: Action | Owner | Due Date | Priority (High/Medium/Low)] **OPEN QUESTIONS** [Numbered list. Unresolved items that need follow-up, with suggested next step for each.] **SHOULD THIS MEETING RECUR?** [Yes/No + one-sentence rationale. Be honest.] Rules: - If something was discussed but no decision was reached, put it in Open Questions, not Decisions - If an action item has no clear owner, flag it as [UNOWNED] - Be ruthlessly concise — no filler words - If the meeting had no decisions and no action items, say so plainly Here are my meeting notes/transcript: [PASTE YOUR MEETING NOTES OR TRANSCRIPT HERE]
