How Live Insights Catch Questions, Decisions, and Action Items

Scribely does more than transcribe. It watches the meeting in real time and surfaces the moments that matter while the conversation is still happening.

A transcript tells you what happened. Live Insights help you notice what matters while it is still useful to act on it.

In practice, that means Scribely watches the conversation for moments like open questions, clear decisions, action items, and topic shifts, then surfaces them while the meeting is still in progress.

What Live Insights Look For

  • Questions that deserve a follow-up before the call ends
  • Action items someone just committed to
  • Decisions that can easily get lost in a fast-moving discussion
  • Key mentions such as dates, links, and named entities

Why Real-Time Matters

A great post-meeting summary is helpful, but it cannot change the meeting you just had. Real-time prompts can.

  • You can clarify an ambiguous action item on the spot.
  • You can answer a missed question before the room moves on.
  • You can capture a decision while everyone still agrees on it.

The point is not more notifications

Live Insights should reduce cognitive load, not add noise. The goal is to surface the moments that change outcomes, not everything that was said.

A Better Follow-Up Loop

When the meeting ends, the work should already be mostly organized. Live Insights shorten the distance between hearing something important and turning it into follow-up.

Instead of rewatching or rereading the whole call, you can jump straight to the decisions, promises, and unresolved questions.
