Turn meeting notes into a summary email automatically

Raw transcripts are unreadable, and nobody re-listens to a recording. Without a clean written summary, meetings produce talk but no follow-through.

Paste the transcript into a private form and the workflow writes and emails a concise recap — decisions, owners, open questions — that people will actually read.

The working template

Meeting Summary Email

Paste any meeting transcript into a private form and get a clean summary email — decisions, action items with owners, open questions.

What you’ll need

  • A free n8n account (cloud or self-hosted)
  • A Gmail account (or swap in Outlook/SMTP)
  • An OpenAI API key (any OpenAI-compatible key works)

Common questions

How long can the transcript be?

A full meeting’s worth of text works fine. Very long transcripts may hit your AI provider’s limit, which you can raise in settings.

Can I change the summary format?

Yes — the structure lives in one editable instruction node you can adjust in plain English.
