Decisions and Actions

Indigo goes beyond transcription. After every meeting, the AI layer analyzes the transcript to identify decisions that were made and action items that need follow-up. This turns hours of meeting audio into structured, actionable output.

Decision detection

How it works

Indigo’s AI scans meeting transcripts for language patterns that indicate a decision has been reached. This includes explicit agreements, resolved debates, confirmed plans, and commitments.

Each detected decision includes:

Field	Description
Decision	What was decided
Context	The surrounding discussion that led to it
Participants	Who was involved in making the decision
Timestamp	When in the meeting it occurred

What gets detected

• Explicit agreements (“Let’s go with option B”)
• Commitments (“I’ll handle the vendor outreach”)
• Resolved discussions (“We’ve decided to postpone the launch”)
• Confirmed plans (“The deadline is March 15th”)

Note

Decision detection improves over time as Indigo processes more of your meetings and learns the patterns of your team’s communication style.

Linking to context

Every decision links back to the original transcript segment where it occurred. You can click through from a decision to see the full surrounding discussion, including who raised the topic, what alternatives were considered, and how the group arrived at the conclusion.

Action item extraction

Automatic task detection

Indigo identifies action items from natural conversation without requiring anyone to explicitly say “action item.” The AI recognizes task-oriented language and extracts structured items from it.

Each action item includes:

Field	Description
Task	What needs to be done
Assignee	Who is responsible (when identifiable)
Due date	When it’s due (when mentioned or inferable)
Source	Link to the transcript moment

Assignee identification

When someone is named or volunteers for a task during a meeting, Indigo associates the action item with that person. This works with direct assignments (“Sarah, can you draft the proposal?”) and self-assignments (“I’ll send the follow-up email”).

Due date inference

If a deadline is mentioned in the conversation — either explicitly (“by Friday”) or contextually (“before the next sprint”) — Indigo extracts and associates it with the action item. When no date is mentioned, the field is left empty rather than guessed.
