problem statement

How might we design a cohesive, compliant, and AI-powered meeting summarization experience for 290K+ employees, ensuring seamless integration, inclusivity, and adaptability across diverse scenarios and personas?

process

01 Research

Interviews, SUS, heuristics

02 Co-design

Workshops, quick sketches

03 Prototype

Flows, micro-interactions

04 Validate

Usability tests & synthesis

meeting summary experience flow

Join meeting

Employees can join regular meetings and start summarization with standardized messaging informed by device parity analysis, heuristics, and service blueprinting.

Get notified

Streamlined notifications deliver summaries based on user preferences and channel choice, informed by workshops and policy constraints.

Meeting portal

Compliance-focused portal for accessing, searching, and sharing meeting insights while maintaining regulatory standards.

Agentic access

Future on-the-go access, one-click sharing, templates, and in-house LLM agent tools to assist across integrated applications.

Service blueprinting layered with heuristics analysis

Continuous heuristic evaluations were conducted at multiple stages—both during the initial design phase and while reviewing the UI pilot—to enhance the overall experience and reduce user pain points.

01

Initial Design Hypothesis

Envision an end-to-end intelligent meeting summarisation experience.

  • Integrated quick AI toolbox for context actions.
  • Search & filter as core navigation.
  • Attendees & action items surfaced up front.

02

Post Feasibility & MVP Prioritisation

Align with PM & Eng on feasible V1 and critical path features.

  • Prioritised "new summary" and "download" as critical path features.
  • Deferred advanced search/filter to later validation.
  • Scoped interaction to single-page summary view to accelerate delivery.
03

User Interviews & Usability Feedback

Validate V1 experience; identify usability gaps.

  • High value in filters, meeting type, and quick sharing.
  • Need fast retrieval and preference controls.

04

Integrating Insights (Day 2 / V2 Evolution)

Evolve design through evidence-based iteration.

  • Introduced Preference Settings panel within the portal (Day 2).
  • Integrated Quick Share flows into both the summary view and AI toolbox.
  • Adopted floating search/filter & AI toolbox to balance flexibility with compliance limitations.

Solution highlights

  • AI-generated meeting summaries portal for central access
  • Scenario-testing framework to improve summary quality
  • Multi-device consistency for seamless adoption
  • Action-item notifications for accountability
  • Agentic toolbox concept (contextual actions)
  • Template selection & quick share patterns
  • Compliance-first portal scaffolding

Key learnings/Reflections

  • Balance AI-first vision with trust and usability
  • Cross-functional alignment accelerates enterprise adoption
  • Iterate via pilots; measure what moves adoption
