Automate Meeting Notes with a Summarizer Agent

1. 1
   Connect Your Calendar

   Integrate the Meeting Summarizer Agent with your Google or Microsoft 365 calendar via its settings. This allows the agent to automatically identify upcoming meetings from your schedule and know when to join them.
2. 2
   Invite the Agent to a Meeting

   Schedule a new meeting in your connected calendar. Add the Meeting Summarizer Agent as an attendee by inviting its unique email address (e.g., otter@otter.ai). The agent will then automatically join the Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams call at the scheduled time.
3. 3
   Review the Automated Summary

   After the meeting concludes, you'll receive an email with a link to the results. Review the generated abstract summary, key discussion points, and extracted action items. You can also access and search the full, speaker-labeled transcript.
4. 4
   Configure Action Item Sync

   Navigate to the integrations section in the agent's settings and connect it to your project management tool (e.g., Jira, Asana, Trello). In the post-meeting review, you can now push extracted action items directly into your projects as new tasks.
