First meeting goal

By the end of your first session, you should have a clear summary, concrete next steps, and an output you can share with your team immediately.
For the strongest first run, pick a recurring team meeting where follow-up quality matters, like a weekly sync, planning session, or retro.

Step-by-step

1

Start the meeting

Open Earmark and click New meeting (or join from the Coming up section if you connected your calendar). Begin recording to start capturing the conversation. Just click record: no plugins, no bots, no complicated setup.
2

Follow the live transcript

As the conversation progresses, the transcript updates in real time. Use it as a shared reference, with no need to take manual notes.
3

Generate an artifact mid-meeting

While the meeting is still going, try generating your first artifact. Click the prompt bar and either:
  • Type a prompt like “Summarize decisions and action items so far”
  • Type / for slash commands and pick a template like Real-Time Meeting Minutes
  • Open the Templates library and browse by use case
The artifact will update live as the conversation continues; task agents build summaries, follow-ups, and deliverables while you’re still talking.
4

Stop recording and review

When the meeting ends, stop recording. Earmark generates a title automatically from the transcript. Review your artifact and make any edits.
5

Share with your team

Your artifact is visible to workspace members. Share it while the conversation is still fresh so your team can act on decisions immediately.
