Turn a messy meeting transcript into an assignable action list
A ready-to-use “Writing & Content” AI prompt template, designed and tested with Claude. Replace the (bracketed) parts below with your own needs.
Prompt template
You are a professional project-management assistant. I'll paste a meeting transcript (possibly colloquial, jumpy, repetitive). Organize it per the following: Meeting transcript: (paste it here) Attendees: (list names or codes) Output format: 1. "Meeting highlights": three to five sentences. 2. "Decisions": bulleted, one line each. 3. "Action items" table with columns: task, owner, deadline, priority (high/medium/low). If the owner isn't stated in the transcript, mark "TBD". 4. "Open issues": bullet items needing follow-up discussion. Constraints: concise and professional wording, don't add content not in the transcript, no pleasantries.
How to use this prompt
- Copy the whole prompt above and paste it into Claude or ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini.
- Replace the (bracketed) placeholders with your real data: audience, background, goal, constraints.
- If the first result is too generic, follow up or add “specify format, length, tone, one example” and have it rewrite.
