Briefs and templates

When a recording finishes processing, Eavesy writes a brief on top of the transcript. Briefs need an account.

What's in a brief

• a title and a short summary,
• decisions that were made,
• action items, with owners and due dates when they were mentioned, and
• open questions.

It's plain Markdown, so you can paste it straight into an agent. It's also saved as summary.md in the recording's folder on a signed-in Mac.

Use a built-in format

Open a completed recording on the web, pick a format above the brief, and choose Regenerate:

• Standard brief for decisions, actions and open questions,
• Meeting notes for owners, due dates, blockers and follow-up,
• Coding session for goals, files, commands, attempts and next steps,
• Research session for questions, findings, sources and uncertainty, or
• Customer conversation for goals, pain points, objections and commitments.

Regenerating never changes the transcript. If you edited the brief, Eavesy asks before replacing it.

Make your own template

Go to Settings → Brief templates in the web app. Give the template a name and describe the sections and emphasis you want. You don't need to include the transcript. Eavesy adds it when you regenerate.

For example, a sales template could ask for the prospect, pain points, objections, and the next step with an owner. A coding template could ask for file paths, decisions, TODOs and test results.

Edit the brief

Choose Edit to change the wording yourself. Restore generated brings back the last generated version.

On a Mac, you can also edit summary.md in any editor. Eavesy never overwrites a file you've changed.
