Get these right before you write

1. 1Decisions and action items are the document; everything else is context.
2. 2Every action has one owner and a date, not 'the team' and 'soon'.
3. 3Open questions are listed, not hidden in prose, so the next meeting starts from them.
4. 4Send within the day; minutes age fast.

Structure

The document opens with these headings and blanks.

A complete example

Written by the AI from this brief, exactly as the workbench would write yours:

Minutes of the customer-support weekly meeting on 6 October 2026, attended by the support lead, two shift leads and a payments engineer: agenda was payment-failure escalations, the login self-help page and Q4 hiring; decisions: payment-failure tickets go to the payments team's second line with a 48-hour closure target, the self-help page pilots on 15 November, one agent is hired in October; actions with owners and dates; open question: whether to extend chat hours to weekends.

Names, figures and dates in the example are made up for illustration.

How it works

1. 1Open the template: a document with the skeleton and the brief appears.
2. 2Add one line about your case to the brief, or attach your notes as sources, and press First draft.
3. 3Edit directly, or ask the AI to tighten, expand or translate any passage; every AI change is reviewed before it lands.

Questions

Can I use the example as it is?

The example shows the shape and tone; its names and figures are made up. Open the template and give the AI your own facts, and it writes yours in the same shape.

Does it work in English and Chinese?

Yes. The document is written in the language of your brief, and any passage can be translated afterwards.

Is it free?

Writing is billed by the tokens used, usually a few credits per draft; the template, the skeleton and the editor cost nothing.
