Menutes for Remote Teams

How teams use Menutes

The remote team meeting problem

Remote teams attend 30% more meetings than in-office teams. The average remote worker spends over 21 hours per week in scheduled meetings, and the meeting load keeps growing as organizations add check-ins to compensate for lost in-person interactions.

The challenge isn't just the volume of meetings. It's the information loss between them. Decisions made on a Zoom call are forgotten by the next day. Action items discussed in a standup aren't documented. Team members in different time zones miss critical meetings entirely.

This creates a documentation gap that leads to duplicated work, missed deadlines, and frustrating "didn't we already discuss this?" conversations. Manual note-taking doesn't scale when your team has 15+ meetings per day across multiple time zones.

How Menutes helps distributed teams

Menutes eliminates the documentation gap by automatically transcribing and summarizing every meeting. Within minutes of a call ending, every participant (and every absent team member) gets structured meeting minutes with decisions, action items, and discussion summaries.

For cross-timezone teams, this is transformative. Instead of requiring everyone to attend live, team members can review the AI-generated summary at the start of their workday. They get the full context of what was discussed and decided, with speaker attribution so they know who owns each action item.

The searchable meeting history means any team member can find past discussions about a topic, a project, or a decision. This builds institutional knowledge that doesn't depend on any single person's memory or notes.

Works with every meeting platform

Remote teams often use multiple communication tools: Zoom for client calls, Google Meet for internal meetings, Teams for cross-org collaboration, and occasionally in-person meetings when team members travel to the same location.

Menutes works across all of these. It captures system audio from any virtual meeting platform and can record in-person meetings from a phone or laptop. The meeting documentation format is consistent regardless of the platform used.

This consistency matters for remote teams. Instead of fragmented notes across different tools, every meeting produces the same structured output: transcript, speaker identification, decisions, and action items.

Async-first meeting culture

The best remote teams are moving toward async-first communication, where meetings are the exception rather than the default. But when meetings do happen, they need to be well-documented so that the information is available asynchronously.

Menutes enables this shift. When you know every meeting will be automatically transcribed and summarized, you can confidently decline meetings that don't require your live input. You can review the summary later and contribute asynchronously.

Teams using AI transcription report saving 4-5 hours per person per week on meeting-related tasks. For a 20-person remote team, that's 80-100 hours per week redirected from manual note-taking and meeting catch-up to actual productive work.
