WhatsApp Recap to Follow-Up Email
Generate a structured recap from your WhatsApp discussion and turn it into a follow-up email with decisions, action items, and next steps.
The meeting happened on WhatsApp. Now you need to send a follow-up email. You could scroll through the chat and write the email from memory. Or you could generate a structured recap and turn it into a professional follow-up in minutes.
The follow-up email problem
After a WhatsApp discussion, someone needs to:
- Summarize what was discussed
- List the decisions that were made
- Assign action items with deadlines
- Share this with everyone involved (including people not in the chat)
Writing this from memory is unreliable. Writing it from scrolling through the chat is tedious. Generating it from a structured recap is fast and accurate.
Step-by-step workflow
1. Export the chat
Export the WhatsApp conversation that contains the discussion. Include media if voice notes were used.
2. Generate the recap
Upload the .zip to the meeting notes generator and choose the Meeting Recap goal. Set the date range to the discussion period and filter to relevant participants.
3. Review the output
ThreadRecap produces structured output with:
- Topics discussed
- Decisions made
- Action items with owners
- Open questions
4. Format as email
Take the recap output and restructure it as a follow-up email:
Subject: Follow-up: [Topic] Discussion — [Date]
Body:
Hi team,
