We've all experienced that post-meeting panic where you can't decipher your notes, and you have to follow up with your team later. Sure, you could rewatch the meeting recording, but that means your team is waiting on you for an update. No pressure, right?

Grain makes it easy to capture and share takeaways from video calls so you can turn insights into action faster, whether it's a customer call or an internal planning meeting. With AI-powered features like automatic transcription, action items, and summaries, you can quickly share information and get back to work.  

But what if you don't have time to review meeting summaries for a specific piece of information? Luckily, you can create a simple Zap (our word for automated workflows) that will automatically send new highlights from Grain recordings to a Slack channel, so you can share the most important stuff quickly.

The challenge: You need to share meeting takeaways with your team, but cleaning up notes can slow you down. Plus, you're juggling other meetings as well. 

The solution: Automatically send Grain highlights to a Slack channel, so you can communicate need-to-know info fast.

A Zapier workflow that triggers from new Grain meeting highlights, filters for a specific highlight keyword, and shares the video highlight in a Slack channel.

Ready to try it yourself? To get started with a Zap template—our pre-made workflows—just click on it, and we'll guide you through the set-up process. It only takes a few minutes.
