Voice Commands

During a meeting, you can control Groupthink agents with natural voice commands. Just speak your instruction out loud. Groupthink detects it in the transcript and responds in real time.

How to Trigger a Command

Address the agent by name before giving your instruction:

  • "Groupthink, take a note about the budget discussion"
  • "Hey Groupthink, summarize what we've covered so far"
  • "@Groupthink pause"

If you have a custom-named agent, use that name instead of "Groupthink."

Supported Commands

Capture Notes

take note {content}: Saves an important point directly to the meeting notes.

"Groupthink, take a note: we agreed to push the launch to Q3."

Summarize

summarize: Requests a summary of the discussion so far.

"Hey Groupthink, summarize."

Search the Transcript

what did {person} say about {topic}: Searches earlier in the transcript for what a specific person said about a topic.

"Groupthink, what did Sarah say about the pricing model?"

File a GitHub Issue

file issue {description}: Creates a GitHub issue from the current meeting context.

"Groupthink, file issue: follow up on API rate limiting decision."

Requires a GitHub integration to be connected. See GitHub Integration.

Mute / Unmute an Agent

mute {agent} / unmute {agent}: Silences or re-enables an agent's ability to respond during the meeting.

"Groupthink, mute." "Hey Groupthink, unmute."

Pause / Resume

pause / resume: Pauses or resumes all agent activity for the meeting. Useful when you need the agent to stop processing temporarily.

"Groupthink, pause." "Groupthink, resume."

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to say anything special to activate voice commands? No wake word or button press is needed. Just address the agent by name at the start of your instruction. Commands are detected automatically as the transcript is processed.

Does it work with private desktop recording? Yes. Voice commands work with both the visible bot and private desktop recording, as long as the agent is active in the meeting.

What if the command doesn't work? Commands are processed in real time as transcript events arrive. If a command isn't recognized, the agent will continue its normal behavior. Try rephrasing with a clear trigger ("Hey Groupthink, ...") at the start.

Do mute and pause states persist? Yes. Mute and pause states persist for the duration of the meeting until you explicitly unmute or resume.
