Custom Prompts

Choose Custom and write your own instructions. The AI will follow your prompt when generating the summary.

  • Keep instructions clear and specific
  • Maximum 500 characters
  • The AI will always keep summaries under 4000 characters regardless of instructions

Example prompts:

  • "Focus on technical decisions and code changes discussed"
  • "Write in bullet points, group by speaker"
  • "Summarize in Spanish"

Tips

  • Presets are a good starting point — try a few to see what fits your server
  • Use the server default for your most common use case, then override individual recordings when needed
  • Regenerating a summary replaces the previous one
