🤝 Remio AI: Stop Letting Meetings Waste Your Team's Time

What It Is

Meetings end. Confusion begins. Remio AI (founded 2023, already trusted by 5,000+ teams) fixes this by auto-joining your calls, extracting who's doing what by when, and actually following up when deadlines approach.

Why It's Trending:

Remio's context engine links discussions across multiple meetings, so when someone asks "didn't we already decide this?" it surfaces the exact conversation from three weeks ago. The AI learns your team's patterns—recognizing that Sarah usually handles design tasks and Mike owns technical implementations—and assigns action items accordingly without manual tagging.

Key Features:

• Smart Auto-Join connects to your calendar and joins meetings automatically based on rules you set

• Decision Extraction identifies and archives key decisions with full context, not just bullet points

• Action Item Intelligence assigns tasks to the right people based on conversation context and historical patterns

• Cross-Meeting Memory links related discussions across different meetings to show decision evolution

• Follow-Up Automation sends deadline reminders and generates status update requests automatically

Real Example: From Meeting Chaos to Operational Excellence

A 15-person product team at a SaaS startup was drowning in "he said, she said" confusion about sprint commitments. After implementing Remio AI, every standup, sprint planning, and retro produced searchable records with clear ownership. When the CEO asked "why did we deprioritize feature X?" the PM pulled up the exact discussion from sprint planning with technical constraints and business rationale. Result: zero time wasted reconstructing past conversations, 30% reduction in duplicate work from miscommunication.

How to Set It Up

1. Create account at remio.ai (14-day free trial, then $15/user/month)

2. Authorize calendar access - connect Google Calendar or Outlook so Remio sees your schedule

3. Configure auto-join rules - set which meeting types to join (internal team meetings, client calls, 1:1s)

4. Connect your tools - link Slack for notifications, integrate Asana/Linear/Jira for automatic task creation

5. Set summary preferences - choose default recipients, customize action item format

6. Let it observe first meeting - Remio joins automatically, takes notes without interrupting

7. Review and refine - check the summary, adjust prompts if needed, then roll out to team
