Site and Progress Meeting Minutes Agent

The Site and Progress Meeting Minutes Agent turns Teams recordings, transcripts or handwritten notes into structured minutes in your house template. It captures decisions, instructions, early warnings and actions with owners and due dates, and carries every open action forward into the next meeting's agenda so nothing slips between meetings.

Ideal forProject managers

The difference

From 3-4 hours per meeting to 30-45 minutes

Project managers get back half a day each week and minutes go out while decisions are still fresh.

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.

Minutes out while they still matter

Minutes that arrive a week later lose their value on site. The agent drafts them within hours, so instructions and actions are clear while the team still remembers the discussion.

A record that stands up later

Minutes are key evidence in extension of time claims, disputes and adjudication. Consistent, complete records of instructions, early warnings and delays protect your position.

Open actions that do not disappear

Every unresolved action rolls into the next agenda automatically, so repeat items get closed out instead of quietly dropping off the register.

Capabilities

Minutes and action registers issued the same day, carried forward automatically.

Built for principal agents, project managers, construction managers and site agents at South African contractors, developers and consulting practices who run site, progress and technical meetings.

Transcript to minutes

Converts recordings, transcripts or rough notes into clean minutes in your template: attendance, apologies, agenda items, discussion and decisions.

Action register

Extracts every action with owner, due date and status, and maintains a live register across the meeting series.

Agenda carry-forward

Generates the next agenda with meeting number, date and all outstanding actions updated automatically.

Contract notices flagged

Highlights discussion that may amount to an instruction, NEC early warning, JBCC or GCC notice or delay, so the principal agent can follow up formally.

Multiple output styles

Produces cleaned minutes, action-only summaries or high-level notes for the client, depending on the audience.

Distribution ready

Prepares the distribution list and a summary email, ready for the chair to send once approved.

How it works

From your systems to a result you sign off

The chair or principal agent edits and approves the minutes before they are distributed to the project team.

Deployment

Runs inside the tools your team already uses

The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.

Model Context Protocol

In the frontier assistant you already pay for

We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.

Governance

Governed the same way, every route

Whichever way your team reaches the agent, identity, permissions and audit stay with your existing controls.

  • Single sign-on through Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace
  • Reads only the documents each user is already allowed to open
  • Every tool call written to an audit log you can export

DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY

Your meeting records stay yours.

The agent runs inside your tenancy, reads only what each task needs, and never trains on your meeting records. Every step is logged so your auditors can see exactly what it touched.

Built for regulated work.
