Step 1: Turn on Record

In New meeting, with Alori video picked, keep Record on. It's on to start. On the Schedule, turn on Video meeting, then Record.

Click: New meeting › Record

Step 2: Hold the meeting

Guests see: "This meeting is recorded, transcribed and summarized by AI." By joining, they agree. The meeting shows Recorded.

Forgot to turn on Record? In the call, click Record at the top. Everyone in the call is recorded from then on and sees Recording, and the notes come when it ends like any recorded meeting. It can't be turned off before the meeting ends.

Step 3: End it

Click End and confirm. Everyone is disconnected and the summary starts. In the list, the meeting shows Summary on its way…, then Summary ready.

Click: End

Step 4: Read the notes

Open the meeting from Meetings: past meetings are listed newest first. The video and the Summary (Written by Alori) are on the left; click Create the task beside a next step to make it a task. The Transcript is on the right, with the time of each turn: click a turn to play the video from there, or type in Search the transcript to find a word (1 of 3, with arrows). On a phone, the video stays on top and Summary, Transcript and Questions are tabs under it.

Once it's over, the main button is Write the follow-up: Alori drafts the email to the customer from the meeting, and sends it only when you say yes.

Click: Meetings › the meeting

From the Schedule, click the meeting's event once it's over, then View meeting summary. While the summary is being written, it says Summary on its way… under the button.
