Frequently asked questions

How do I take good meeting notes?

Focus on decisions, open questions and next steps rather than writing down everything said. Fill in owners and dates before the meeting ends.

Can AI take meeting notes for me?

Yes. Acta records Zoom, Google Meet and Teams meetings, with or without a bot, and writes the summary, decisions and action items.

Is this meeting notes 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 notes 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.
