Some days, it feels like an endless relay of Zoom calls, each one blending into the next. You jot down notes, chase action items, and try to keep everyone aligned. But by the end of the week, you’re buried under meeting fatigue with precious little time left for strategic work.

**As an example:** The side-by-side illustration highlights the difference AI makes in managing meetings. On the left, a frazzled project manager is shown juggling **sticky notes and back-to-back Zoom calls**, struggling to keep track of decisions and action items. On the right, the same manager looks calm and focused while an **AI agent projects live meeting notes and action items directly onto a dashboard.**

When updates, tasks, and risks are captured automatically, you don’t need 10 weekly check-ins. Half of them can be replaced by AI-generated summaries. The remaining meetings can focus on **strategic decisions, not status updates**.

The illustration below shows how AI meeting summaries can dramatically reduce the time spent in meetings. In the **“Before” view**, project managers sit through around **10 meetings per week**, often just to gather updates. In the **“After” view**, with AI generating clear, reliable summaries, the number of meetings drops to **5 per week**, freeing up time for deeper work while keeping everyone equally (or even better) informed.
