Recover Your Notes When the Notetaker Misses a Meeting

Sometimes the Groupthink notetaker does not capture a call. It failed to join, the transcript came back empty, or you used a different notetaker (Gemini, Granola, Otter, Fireflies) for that meeting. The conversation is not lost. If you have notes or a transcript from anywhere, you can log them so they still feed your relationship intelligence.

Heads up: Viewing your past meetings and recaps requires an active trial or paid plan. If your plan has lapsed, past recaps stay hidden until you start a trial or subscribe again.

When to use this

  • The notetaker did not join, or joined but captured nothing.
  • You ran another notetaker on the call and have its transcript or summary.
  • You took notes by hand and want them on the record.

Find the meeting

  1. Open Past Interactions from the navigation. This lists your meetings and logged notes, grouped by date.
  2. Find the meeting and open it to reach its recap page, which has Summary and Transcript tabs.

If you have a lot of history, use search to find a specific interaction by keyword.

Log your notes

On the meeting recap page:

  1. Click Log Interaction in the header.
  2. Choose Log notes.
  3. Confirm or pick the contact for the conversation, paste your transcript, summary, or notes into the Meeting notes field, and click Save notes.

The field accepts any format: a Granola or Otter export, a pasted transcript, or raw notes you typed yourself. Groupthink reads the text and adds what it learns to that person's profile, so the conversation still counts toward what you know about them over time.

If the other notetaker sends you its recap by email, you do not have to copy and paste at all. You can forward that email into Groupthink and it ingests the notes for you.

One thing to know: logging notes this way updates your relationship intelligence for the people involved. It does not rebuild the missed meeting's own Summary tab, so the recap page for that specific meeting stays as the notetaker left it.

Attach a deck or PDF to the meeting

If what you have is a slide deck or a document for that call, you can attach it to the meeting itself:

  1. On the recap page, click Log Interaction.
  2. Choose Upload deck / PDF.
  3. Upload the file. Groupthink reads it and attaches it to that meeting.

If a meeting is missing entirely and there is no recap page to open, contact us at support@groupthink.com.
