Brooke Elder discusses how to automate task management from meetings using AI tools like Granola and Claude.
Ever wrap up a great meeting, recap everyone’s to-dos, feel super on top of it — and then show up to the next meeting and half of it never got done?

Today I’m showing you how to turn the things you SAY in a meeting into real, assigned, due-dated tasks — automatically. We’re building this with three tools: Granola (my favorite AI notetaker, because it never actually joins your Zoom call), ClickUp (or Asana, or Monday, whatever you already use), and Claude. But here’s the part most people skip — strategy first, AI second. Before we prompt anything, we map how your meetings actually work: which meeting feeds which list, who owns what, and the one rule I never break — every task gets an assignee AND a due date (no date given? default it two days out).
