What are Meetings?

Meetings in Waymaker Commander combine scheduling, video conferencing, and note-taking into one tool. Create a meeting, define an agenda, run the call, and capture decisions and action items — all without switching apps.

Key capabilities

  • Meeting templates — reusable formats for recurring meetings (standups, retrospectives, 1:1s)
  • Video and audio calls — built-in video conferencing
  • Recording — record meetings for later review
  • Transcription — automatic speech-to-text transcription
  • Summary generation — AI-generated meeting summaries
  • Action items — extract tasks from meeting notes and assign them

Meeting types

One-time meetings

A single meeting at a specific date and time. Use for ad-hoc discussions, interviews, client calls.

Recurring meetings

A meeting that repeats on a schedule. Define it once and each occurrence inherits the template — but can be customised individually. Use for standups, weekly reviews, monthly planning.

Meeting templates

Templates define the structure of a meeting type:

  • Agenda items — the topics to cover, with time allocations
  • Participant roles — who typically attends and in what capacity
  • Duration — default meeting length
  • Settings — recording, transcription, and notification preferences

Built-in templates

  • Standup — 15 minutes. What I did, what I'm doing, blockers.
  • Retrospective — 60 minutes. What went well, what didn't, improvements.
  • 1:1 — 30 minutes. Check-in, priorities, feedback.
  • Planning — 60 minutes. Review goals, prioritise work, assign tasks.
