Chat With Your Meeting Transcripts
You just got off a long client call. So many action items to get back to the team, but you're headed straight into another call. wHaT tO Do ๐ตโ๐ซ
Let's take a look at a new Fireflies.ai feature, AskFred. It lets you chat with your meeting transcript, which could be a great unlock for you & your team when you need specifics from a meeting.

Two main ways I'd use this:
Asking questions of old meetings I don't remember. Did we talk about Steve's daughter going to college?
My team asking questions of meetings I had. Did they talk about the rental property, or sale of home?
What do you think? Are you using meeting summarizations yet? Is this a helpful step beyond summaries?
