How to Use ClickUp for AI-Powered Meeting Notes

ClickUp can centralize your AI-generated meeting notes, transcripts, and action items so your team never loses critical details again. This step-by-step guide shows you how to turn call summaries from AI tools into organized tasks, documents, and workflows.

The instructions below are inspired by best practices from tools like Fathom AI and other meeting assistants, and adapted to help you build a powerful call management system inside your workspace.

Why Manage AI Meeting Notes in ClickUp?

Many AI call tools can record, transcribe, and summarize your meetings. However, the real value appears when those insights are turned into clear tasks and documentation. Using ClickUp as a central hub for this process offers several advantages:

  • All call summaries and transcripts live in one place.
  • Action items become trackable tasks with owners and due dates.
  • Searchable Docs make it easy to revisit any past conversation.
  • Dashboards and views let you monitor progress across many calls.

Instead of letting your AI summaries sit unused in email or a separate tool, you can connect them to your day-to-day work.

Step 1: Set Up a ClickUp Space for Meetings

Begin by creating a dedicated area for all meeting-related content. This makes it easier to standardize how your team handles call notes from any AI tool.

  1. Create a new Space named something like “Customer Meetings” or “Team Calls”.

  2. Add Folders such as:

    • Prospect Calls
    • Customer Success Meetings
    • Internal Team Updates

  3. Within each Folder, create Lists to represent specific workflows, for example:

    • New Discovery Calls
    • Quarterly Business Reviews
    • Sprint Planning Sessions

This structure lets you drop AI-generated notes into predictable locations, so anyone can quickly find a past meeting.

Step 2: Create a ClickUp Template for AI Call Notes

To avoid reinventing the wheel every time you import notes, build a reusable task or Doc template. This template will capture all the details typically produced by AI call assistants.

Designing a ClickUp Task Template

Create a new task in the relevant List and configure it as a template with the following elements:

  • Task name pattern: “Client Name – Meeting Type – Date”.
  • Custom fields:
    • Meeting Type (discovery, demo, onboarding, support)
    • Account / Company
    • Recording Link
    • Meeting Owner
    • Next Meeting Date
  • Subtasks:
    • Review AI summary
    • Confirm action items with attendees
    • Log key decisions in Docs
    • Schedule follow-up

Save this as a template so your team can spin up a consistent meeting record in seconds.

Using a ClickUp Doc Template for Long-Form Notes

For longer calls or complex accounts, you may prefer to store detailed transcripts in a Doc:

  1. Create a new Doc titled “Meeting Notes Template”.

  2. Add headers such as:

    • Meeting Overview
    • AI Summary
    • Key Questions and Answers
    • Decisions
    • Action Items
    • Follow-Up Plan

  3. Save the Doc as a template for your workspace or Space.

Now you have both a task template and a Doc template ready to capture structured call output.

Step 3: Import AI Summaries into ClickUp

Most AI meeting tools, including those compared to Fathom AI in the source article at this overview of Fathom AI alternatives, let you copy or export summaries and transcripts. You can quickly bring that data into your workspace.

Copy and Paste from Your AI Tool

  1. Open the AI call summary after your meeting ends.

  2. Copy the high-level summary section, key points, and action items.

  3. In your workspace, create a new task from your meeting template.

  4. Paste the summary into the task description under headings like “Summary” and “Key Points”.

  5. If the call produced a long transcript, paste it into a linked Doc instead of the task description, then attach that Doc to the task.

Attach Recordings and Transcripts in ClickUp

To keep everything tied together, attach supporting files directly to your meeting task:

  • Upload audio or video recordings.
  • Attach exported PDF or text transcripts.
  • Link back to the original call in your AI tool using a URL in a custom field.

This creates a single source of truth that any teammate can open without hunting through multiple apps.

Step 4: Turn AI Insights into Actionable ClickUp Tasks

The real power of your workspace appears when AI summaries become clear, assigned, and trackable tasks.

Extract Action Items from AI Notes

  1. Scan the AI summary section labeled “Action Items”, “To-Dos”, or “Next Steps”.

  2. For each distinct action, create a subtask or separate task, depending on complexity.

  3. Assign an owner, due date, and priority.

  4. Tag tasks with labels such as “From Meeting” or “Customer Request”.

This process transforms passive notes into a visible plan your team can execute.

Organize Follow-Ups with ClickUp Views

Use different views to keep track of all work that originated from meetings:

  • List view: Review all tasks by meeting date or customer.
  • Board view: Move items through stages like “Captured”, “In Progress”, and “Completed”.
  • Calendar view: See when follow-ups are due across the month.

These views help you avoid dropped commitments and missed next steps.

Step 5: Build a Meeting Knowledge Base in ClickUp

Over time, your workspace can become a searchable library of conversations, decisions, and customer context.

Link ClickUp Tasks and Docs for Context

For each account or project, create a main record (either a task or Doc) that links to all related meetings.

  • Add links to every meeting task in the account record.
  • Embed key Docs that summarize recurring calls.
  • Use relationships to connect meetings with feature requests, bug tickets, or sprints.

This network of records lets anyone quickly understand the history of a customer or project.

Use ClickUp Search to Find Any Past Call

When your team needs to revisit a specific topic:

  1. Use global search to look up keywords mentioned in AI transcripts.

  2. Filter by Space, Folder, or List to narrow results.

  3. Open the relevant meeting task or Doc to review AI summaries and decisions.

Searchable notes provide continuity across sales cycles, support cases, and internal planning.

Step 6: Improve Your Workflow with Automation

Once your process is running smoothly, you can reduce manual steps with automation rules that fit your meeting pipeline.

  • Automatically assign new meeting tasks to the meeting owner.
  • Set a rule to create a follow-up task when a meeting task moves to “Completed”.
  • Notify key stakeholders whenever a meeting is created under a strategic account.

As your team grows, automation helps ensure every AI-generated insight is routed to the right person without extra clicks.

Next Steps for Using ClickUp with AI Meeting Tools

By setting up dedicated Spaces, templates, and automations, you can turn raw AI meeting summaries into a complete execution system. Start by creating your meeting templates, importing a few recent calls, and converting the AI-generated action items into tasks. Then, refine your views and dashboards as you learn how your team prefers to work.

With this approach, your workspace becomes the operational core for every conversation your team has with prospects, customers, and colleagues—powered by AI, organized by clear structure, and kept on track by well-defined workflows.
