Frequently asked questions

Related:

How long before a meeting should the agenda be sent?

At least a day before, so people can read anything needed and decide whether to attend.

What is the difference between an agenda and minutes?

The agenda is the plan for the meeting. The minutes record what happened and what was decided.

Is this meeting agenda template free?

Yes. Copy it into Google Docs, Word, Notion or an email and use it as often as you like. No sign-up needed.

Can AI fill in the meeting agenda for me?

Yes. Acta records the meeting on Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, with or without a bot, or in person with the mobile app, and writes the notes, decisions and action items with owners afterwards. Anything the meeting didn't cover is left out, not made up.
