How to capture meeting notes
Use this workflow when you need quick notes during a call, then want the result to become tasks, projects, or follow-up notes without losing the raw record.
- Open the Inbox or global quick capture before the meeting starts.
- Capture the raw notes first. Do not stop to decide note type, tags, or project structure while people are talking.
- Add action items inline with plain language, or use todo/task capture when the action is already clear.
- After the meeting, open the process queue and review suggested tasks, links, tags, and note type changes.
- Accept only the suggestions that match what was actually agreed, then link the note to the relevant project or person.
