How to Use ClickUp for AI-Powered Video Calls

ClickUp helps you turn every video call into clear tasks, organized notes, and trackable action items so nothing from your conversations gets lost.

This step-by-step guide walks you through how to prepare, run, and follow up on AI-powered video calls using tools and workflows inspired by the ClickUp platform.

Why Use ClickUp for Video Call Management

Before jumping into the steps, it is useful to understand how ClickUp-style work management transforms your video calls into real results.

  • Centralizes meeting notes, tasks, and documents
  • Uses AI to summarize long calls in minutes
  • Automatically turns discussion points into action items
  • Keeps your team aligned across projects and sprints

By following the workflow below, you can bring ClickUp structure to any video platform you use, such as Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams.

Step 1: Plan Your Video Call in ClickUp

Effective video calls start with clear goals and a shared agenda. You can mirror ClickUp best practices by setting this up inside a dedicated workspace or project space.

Create a ClickUp Meeting List or Space

Organize your calls in a way that matches how you work:

  • Create a “Meetings” or “Video Calls” List for each team or client
  • Group calls by sprint, project phase, or topic
  • Use folders or spaces to separate internal and client meetings

Each meeting becomes a task where you will store your agenda, notes, files, and AI summaries.

Add Meeting Details to Your ClickUp Task

Inside the meeting task, add key information so everyone joins prepared:

  • Meeting title and date
  • Video call link (Zoom, Meet, Teams, etc.)
  • Owner or facilitator
  • Guests or attendees
  • Estimated duration

You can use custom fields to track priority, call type (standup, demo, sales, support), and expected outcomes.

Build an Agenda Template in ClickUp

Save time by building a reusable agenda template that you can apply to every new call:

  1. Create a section in your meeting task description called “Agenda”
  2. Add bullets for each topic with time estimates
  3. Include links to supporting docs or dashboards
  4. Save the task as a template so you can reuse it

This mirrors how ClickUp templates streamline recurring processes like weekly team meetings or client check-ins.

Step 2: Use AI During Your Video Call

Once your call starts, you want to capture the conversation without distracting yourself by taking constant notes. Modern AI tools, like those highlighted on the ClickUp AI for video calls reference page, can help you record and summarize in real time.

Connect Recording and Transcription to ClickUp

To keep everything in one workspace, follow these practices:

  • Start a recording in your video app
  • Use an AI transcription tool that can export text or summaries
  • Upload the transcript file to your ClickUp meeting task
  • Paste any AI-generated summary into the task description

By keeping transcripts and summaries attached to the correct ClickUp task, you always know where to find key decisions and discussions.

Let AI Capture Key Moments

During the call, AI tools can detect important segments such as:

  • New feature requests or requirements
  • Bug reports and technical blockers
  • Deadlines, milestones, and dependencies
  • Customer feedback and objections

After the call, you can quickly scan these highlights in ClickUp and convert them to tasks, subtasks, and comments.

Step 3: Turn Notes into ClickUp Tasks

The biggest productivity win comes from transforming unstructured conversation into structured ClickUp tasks that live in your workflows.

Use ClickUp Structure for Action Items

Inside your meeting task, review the transcript and summary, then:

  1. Create new tasks for each major deliverable
  2. Add subtasks for smaller steps or handoffs
  3. Assign owners and due dates
  4. Tag tasks with the relevant project, sprint, or client

This ensures that every to-do from your video call moves directly into your normal ClickUp boards, lists, and calendars.

Tag Decisions and Risks in ClickUp

In addition to tasks, track decisions and risks clearly:

  • Add a “Decisions” section in your meeting description
  • Use comments to capture final approvals
  • Create a custom field for risk level or impact
  • Link related tasks so context is never lost

These best practices make it easy for anyone reviewing the ClickUp record of the call to see what was decided, by whom, and why.

Step 4: Automate Follow-Up with ClickUp Workflows

Once your meeting tasks and follow-up work are in place, automations inspired by ClickUp workflows keep everything moving without manual chasing.

Set Smart Notifications in ClickUp

Configure notifications so your team receives the right updates at the right time:

  • Notify assignees when a new task is created from a call
  • Alert stakeholders when priorities or due dates change
  • Send reminders a day before a call or deadline

Balanced notifications help your team stay informed without feeling overwhelmed.

Build Automations for Recurring Calls

For recurring meetings, such as weekly standups or client status calls, you can:

  1. Create a recurring ClickUp meeting task on a schedule
  2. Auto-apply your agenda template each time
  3. Auto-assign the facilitator or note-taker
  4. Roll over incomplete action items from the last meeting

This way, your video call workflow practically runs itself, and you always have a current ClickUp record of ongoing discussions.

Step 5: Analyze Outcomes in ClickUp Views

To see the impact of your video calls, use structured views inspired by ClickUp dashboards and reporting.

Track Meeting Tasks Across Projects

Use different views to organize your follow-up work:

  • List view for a simple overview of all call-related tasks
  • Board view to manage calls by status or type
  • Calendar view to see upcoming and past meetings
  • Table view to filter by owner, client, or priority

Each view gives you a different perspective on how video conversations are turning into shipped work.

Measure Productivity from ClickUp Data

Over time, analyze how your approach is working:

  • Count tasks created from video calls
  • Measure completion rates and cycle times
  • Review which calls generate the most impactful work
  • Identify where you need clearer agendas or better follow-up

Use these insights to refine both your meeting habits and your ClickUp configurations.

Best Practices for AI and ClickUp Video Calls

To get the most from AI-powered video calls inside a ClickUp-style system, keep these tips in mind.

  • Keep agendas short and focused
  • Start recordings early so nothing is missed
  • Summarize decisions at the end of every call
  • Convert action items to ClickUp tasks immediately
  • Share meeting notes and summaries with all stakeholders

Combining AI transcription and ClickUp organization helps your team spend less time rehashing conversations and more time acting on them.
