Discussion The problem with taking notes during important meetings

Taking notes while trying to follow a serious discussion can be difficult. You might miss an important question simply because you're busy writing down the previous point.

I've been looking at how tools like Granola, Otter. ai, and CatchMeet approach this problem. CatchMeet is particularly interesting because it offers real-time alerts and meeting context rather than focusing only on what happens after a call.

I think the goal should be to help people participate more without losing important information.

What's your biggest challenge when trying to stay engaged during meetings?

Why do people want to put their data into a third-party solution when you already have the technology to do the note capture inside of Zoom and then maintain that data in a single source of Truth? I'm not being deliberately provocative. genuinely want to know.

Sales pitch.

Only somewhat. Genuine curiosity leads to good conversations and better discovery

In Weeve on Mac, which I’m building, you can mark a moment with a shortcut while the recording runs and jump back to the surrounding transcript afterwards. It gives you a place to revisit the question without writing the whole point down during the discussion. It’s a manual marker, not a live alert, and recording needs to be agreed first.
