Capturing, summarizing, and operationalizing client and team meetings with AI notetakers

Here is my AI marketing stack, what each tool does, and how it helps me and my clients.

1. Thinking & writing: Claude
A partner for collaborating, ideas, notes, and research. I use it for client strategy memos, ad copy iterations, analyzing big data, and market research.

Claude doesn't help me work faster. It helps me get deeper insights, sharper analysis, and a real second pair of eyes, which means more value for my clients.

2. Note taking: Granola
Replaces the tasks of listening, thinking, and writing at the same time. I can be present in online meetings and know I'll have solid notes at the end.

3. Landing page creation: Lovable + Flint
I create landing pages, lead magnets, and microsites in an hour, and changes/updates in minutes. This is especially useful for specific ad campaigns when a client doesn't have a strong webpage that matches the campaign.

• Lovable: easy and affordable, but not GEO-friendly
• Flint: built for marketers. More sophisticated than lovable, great at recreating brand look/feel in an AI-landing page format, can produce dozens of unique pages per ad/keyword/audience, and recommends the right page types for your business.

Two patterns I've noticed:
Claude and Granola don't speed up my work, they make it better. Sharper analysis, smarter ideas, deeper knowledge of my clients' industries.

Lovable and Flint do the opposite: they speed things up. I stay in full control of look, feel, and messaging without the back-and-forth with a dev team.

Quality and speed. Both matter.

What AI tools are in your stack?

2 actual ways I used AI in my workflow this week. One saved me 30–60 min on something I dreaded. One saved me 10+ hours and helped me do my job better.

Working out loud because I find actual examples way more useful than general "you should be using AI" advice. I'm not an expert, just figuring it out like everyone else.

I've been sorting experiments into 2 buckets:
1. Efficiency: what saves me time or kills manual work
2. Effectiveness: what helps me do better, more strategic work

One from each this week.

1. Automated weekly meeting recap (Efficiency)

→ Tools: Claude Cowork with connectors to Granola, Chrome extension for Google Docs, and Slack
→ Logic: Automate weekly comms with the team following team call with recap and work plan action steps (with due dates + owners)
→ Setup: Reviews the full meeting transcript (not just the AI summary), cross-references our running meeting notes and separate running work plan in Google Docs, scans certain Slack channels and DMs from the previous week, identifies the recap + action items with due dates per stakeholder, then drafts a formatted Slack message to our team channel. This could automatically post, but it's not 100% perfected yet and I still edit certain things, so it lands as a draft.
→ Scheduling: Every Monday, 5 minutes after our weekly call
→ Time saved: 30–60 min/week — 2–4 hours/month on a task I would have 100% passed to an intern if I had one

2. Interactive messaging wireframe (Effectiveness)

→ Tools: Claude Chat
→ Logic: MVP mock up messaging and hierarchy for a homepage rewrite to communicate visually with the team and avoid confusion
→ Setup: Chat with Claude to mock this up: creates an interactive HTML file you can see in the chat, download, and open in your browser (can also send to the team to do the same). Supplied it with the current website, other files about the company/messaging, what I wanted to change, etc.
→ Time reduced: Goodness, probably 10+ hours. Not mocking it up in Figma/Canva, the team is able to review faster, etc. The copy alone saved me multiple hours. I still edit and direct it very closely, but it gets to a solid MVP point to communicate direction and wordsmith from. I was able to rewrite the whole homepage and have a first draft to review with the team in an afternoon.
→ Notes: This one is SO cool. I was also able to create toggle options to show different messaging approaches in the same file. The file is editable too, so as you're discussing as a team you can edit the copy directly. Presenting work visually like this is something I feel strongly about.

I've been blown away with Claude lately. Fully on the hype train and the ChatGPT transfer crowd! What I really like is how much it doesn't just fully agree with me (have this in my settings too), and how fast it moves.

Anything I could be doing better on these two? Any cool ways you've been using AI I should try next? Learning out loud with everyone here!

I test a new AI tool every week, and this month 10 earned a permanent spot in my workflow. I used to spend hours doing things manually until I started systematically experimenting. The tools I kept help me move faster across writing (voice-to-text for long emails, WhatsApp replies, and high-context prompts), meetings (invisible AI note-taking for sensitive client calls), research (source-grounded summarization and internal-doc audio overviews), automations (agent/workflow builders for recurring research and backend workflows), and content production (transcript-based video editing, AI voice generation/repairs for marketing voiceovers, and video generation models for cinematic clips).
