The value of a meeting is usually decided afterward: whether people can find what was agreed, know who owns the next step, and send the promised follow-up while the context is still fresh.
Strawberry can transcribe Google Meet, Zoom, Teams, and in-person conversations from the transcription button in chat. No meeting bot joins. The transcript can become notes, decisions, actions, and drafts in the structure your work actually needs.
Prepare when context matters
For an important meeting, combine the calendar event with relevant approved relationship history, recent communication, company context, and the desired outcome. Keep the brief concise enough to scan immediately before the call.
Preparation is optional. The post-meeting workflow should still work when the conversation begins without a perfect brief.
Capture the conversation reliably
Transcribe in the meeting's language and preserve uncertainty where speech is unclear. Agree where transcripts and notes should live, how much detail is useful, and whether privacy or retention constraints apply.
Adapt the record to the meeting. An interview may become a scorecard, a client call may belong in the client folder, and a sales or investment call may need specific CRM or company fields.
Turn talk into owned work
Pull out decisions, open questions, action items, owners, dates, and promised follow-ups only where they are useful. Draft communication from what was actually said and keep external messages or record changes reviewable until approved.
A good result is not a transcript dump. It is a linked source plus concise notes and the next actions in the user's accepted destination.
Make the accepted format repeatable
Review the first real output and preserve the accepted note structure, destinations, privacy boundaries, approval behavior, and follow-up rules as a custom skill.
Add a Routine only after the workflow is trusted. The recurring version should preserve user review for sensitive communication and consequential external updates.
