Meeting Notes Happen in Two Places Now
Someone posts in Slack: 'Just talked to the client about pricing.' Notis catches that and creates a Meeting Notes doc in Drive. Your team knows there's a meeting summary waiting, even if the Slack message disappears. Notes live in Drive, organized by date and topic.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Create a File from Text
Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.
Why this helps
Meeting notes scatter across email, Slack threads, and people's laptops. Neurodivergent founders struggle to remember where notes live or to aggregate them later. A central Drive folder with auto-created docs reduces cognitive load and keeps decisions findable.
- All meeting notes live in one searchable folder
- Auto-created docs capture meeting context from Slack mentions
- Reduce time spent searching for who-said-what or decisions made
- Build a permanent record of client and team conversations
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Google Drive.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a message mentions a meeting (e.g., 'just talked to', 'meeting with', 'call with'), create a doc in my Meeting Notes folder in Google Drive with the date and participant names.'
- 3Select 'Channel Message Received' as your trigger.
- 4Specify keywords that trigger doc creation (e.g., 'meeting', 'call', 'sync', 'discussed with').
- 5Test by posting a message in Slack like 'Just met with the design team about the new UI' and verify a doc is created in Drive.
Questions about this workflow
Won't this create a doc for every mention of the word 'meeting'?
You control the keyword filter. You can be strict (only 'just had a meeting') or loose (any mention of 'meeting'). Adjust as needed.
Can I auto-fill the doc with attendees and agenda?
Notis can extract attendee names from the Slack message and create the doc structure. You fill in details, or Notis can pull context from the conversation thread.
Can I organize meeting notes by project or client?
Yes. Notis can sort into subfolders based on keywords in the message (e.g., 'Design team' notes go to the Design folder).
