Your L10 is built to be the exception, but someone on your team is still typing To Dos at court-stenographer speed while everyone else solves Issues, so it’s fair to wonder whether AI can take that seat.
AI notes for L10 meetings work best when the AI follows your EOS agenda. An AI meeting assistant joins your call, transcribes it, and drafts your recap. When someone says “I’ll send the new pricing by Friday” during IDS, it suggests that To Do with the owner and due date. So all you need to do is approve the To Do and move forward.
Nothing gets missed, and your Scribe finally gets to look up from the keyboard and join the conversation.
Can AI take notes in an L10 meeting? Yes, and it won’t ask to grab coffee first. Most AI meeting assistants join your Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet call as a visible participant, listen to the whole thing, and hand you a summary a few minutes after you hang up.
Your L10 makes this easier than most meetings, because it runs the same way every single week: Segue, Scorecard, Rock Review, Headlines, To Do List, IDS, and Conclude. When your agenda is that predictable, AI can file what it hears into the right section, and you get a recap you can read right before concluding your meeting.
The more interesting question is where those notes end up, and who turns them into real commitments. That’s where your options start to look very different.
What can AI capture in each part of your L10? Here’s how an AI notetaker handles each section of your meeting:
Segue. Your weekend wins. 😊 Sweet, but rarely the reason you bought the tool.Scorecard . It notes which Measurables someone called off track and what your team said about them. The numbers still come from your Scorecard.Rock Review. It logs which Rocks were on track, which were off track, and which ones slid onto the Issues List when nobody was looking.Customer and employee Headlines. It captures each update and who shared it, so the person who missed the call can catch up in a minute.To Do List. It tracks which To Dos got done and which ones are back for another week.IDS. This is where the AI assistant earns its seat at the table. It captures the discussion behind each Issue, writes up the solution you landed on, and pulls out the next steps people volunteered for.Conclude. It records your cascading messages and the meeting rating.IDS is where catching the right details makes your machine move. Someone says “I’ll call the vendor Thursday,” your team jumps to the next Issue, and that promise floats off into the void. An AI meeting assistant that listens for those moments catches the To Dos that would otherwise live in one person’s memory. It also suggests an assignee for each one, so every To Do leaves the meeting with a name on it and real accountability behind it. For the meeting that keeps your whole EOS implementation moving , that’s a big deal.
What does your Scribe still own? AI drafts. You decide. Even with a great assistant on the call, keep a human on these four jobs:
Confirming owners and due dates. AI can guess who owns a To Do, and a To Do only sticks when that person says yes to it.Picking which suggestions become real To Dos. Some “we should look into that” comments deserve a line item. Others were just people thinking out loud.Keeping your Issues List honest. AI can tell you an Issue was discussed. Your team decides whether it was solved.Owning the meeting rating. The 1–10 score is your team’s call. No robot gets a vote.Your Scribe gets a promotion from typist to editor: a couple of minutes at Conclude to review what the AI suggests, then everyone gets to leave on time.
General notetakers vs. AI inside your EOS software A general notetaker gives you a summary. An AI assistant inside your EOS software gives you To Dos and solved Issues in the same place you run EOS.
Microsoft and LinkedIn’s 2024 Work Trend Index found that 78% of people using AI at work bring their own AI tools. In your L10, that probably looks familiar: a notetaker someone added to the calendar invite, a recap that lands in an inbox nobody checks, and a Scribe who still copies every To Do into your Level 10 meeting software by hand. So close, and yet.
When the AI lives inside your EOS tool, your follow-through stays connected:
Suggested To Dos land on your team’s To Do list as soon as you accept them. Solution notes save with the Issue, so the history is right there whenever someone needs to dig in. The summary saves with that week’s agenda, next to the Scorecard and Rocks you reviewed. That history is what you’ll lean on three months from now, when someone asks what you decided and why:
“When you want to figure out ‘what happened’ or when did we talk about that and what did we decide – it’s there!” — Tina D., Fractional Leader, Management Consulting
So is EOS software with an AI assistant built in worth it? If you’re running weekly L10s, the math is pretty friendly. You skip paying for a separate notetaker on top of your EOS tool, your Scribe gets their time back every week, and your To Dos land where your team already works. If you’re still weighing the cost of EOS software in general, here’s our breakdown of what you get with paid vs. free EOS tools .
What should you look for in an AI meeting assistant for EOS? Whether you’re comparing EOS software with AI built in or adding a notetaker to the EOS tool you already use, check for these six things:
It works with your video platform. It should join your Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet call with zero workarounds.It follows the L10 agenda. A recap organized by agenda section beats scrolling through a transcript the length of a novel.It turns IDS into To Dos with owners. This is your biggest time saver, and the hardest thing for a general notetaker to pull off.It stays visible. Everyone on the call should see it join and know when it’s recording. Nobody likes a mystery guest.It lets you review before anything saves. You should be able to accept, edit, or reject every suggestion.It handles your data responsibly. You want clear answers on whether recordings get deleted, whether your data trains AI models, and who can turn the feature on.What are the common challenges with AI meeting notes? A few habits help your AI notes work from week one:
Consent. Give your team a heads-up before the first recorded L10, and check that your company’s recording policies allow it.Mixed-up speakers. Some notetakers confuse who said what when your whole team is crowded around one conference room speaker. Check how yours handles in-person L10s.Sensitive topics. Some IDS conversations, like a people Issue, don’t belong on a recording. Hit pause and pick it back up when you’re ready.Over-trusting the summary. A summary is a first draft. Read it before you conclude, the same way you’d skim your Scribe’s notes.Company jargon. Client names and internal shorthand can trip up transcription. Look for a custom dictionary so the AI learns how your team talks.How does the Strety AI Assistant work in your L10? Strety is EOS software with the AI Assistant built right into your agendas, so your L10 notes and follow-ups stay with the rest of your EOS work. Here’s what your meeting looks like with it:
Start your L10 in Strety and invite the assistant. Paste your Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet link and pick a summary template. You’ll find templates for L10s, Quarterlies, Annuals, and reviews, all written in EOS language.Let it in. It joins as “Strety AI Assistant,” and an audio notification plays when recording starts, so nobody’s caught off guard. You can pause it any time a conversation should stay off the record.Run your meeting like you always do. When your team solves an Issue during IDS, the assistant writes up the solution notes and suggests the To Dos right there inside the Issue, assignee and due date included. When we tried it in our own L10 demo , nobody typed a thing. You can tweak anything on the spot if it missed the nuance.Review at Conclude. A few minutes after you stop recording, you review the summary, then accept, edit, or reject each suggested To Do and Issue solution. Your summary also shows each person’s share of the talking time as a percentage, plus a read on the overall sentiment of the meeting. Handy for spotting who’s carrying the conversation and who might need a nudge to jump in next week.Keep the notes, lose the recording. Raw audio and video are deleted automatically after processing. Your summary saves with the agenda, and solution notes save with the Issue. Transcripts are processed by an AI model with zero data retention, so your content is never used to train AI models. The help center guide has the full security and data privacy details.And your L10 is just the start. The AI Assistant works in any meeting you run through a Strety agenda, from 1:1s and Quarterly Conversations to Quarterly and Annual sessions and project meetings. You just pick the summary template that fits the meeting.
On L10s, the assistant also gives your team IDS feedback, so you can see how well you’re solving Issues over time. On 1:1s, your summary comes with GWC feedback: it looks at the conversation through Gets it, Wants it, and Capacity to do it, so you know where to focus your coaching next time.
Account Owners and Admins turn it on and choose which spaces can use it. Every Strety account includes 4 hours of AI Assistant time each billing cycle. Curious why we built it this way? Here’s the story behind it . And if you want AI help before the meeting starts too, AI agenda suggestions give you ideas to overcome the blank page syndrome.

Frequently asked questions Can an AI assistant replace the Scribe in an L10 meeting? AI can take over most of the typing, so your Scribe finally gets to join the discussion. A person still confirms owners, due dates, and which suggestions become real To Dos.
Can an AI assistant create To Dos automatically from an L10? AI can suggest To Dos when someone commits to a next step during the meeting. In Strety, the suggestions show up during IDS, right inside each Issue while your team is still working through it, and you get a final review at Conclude. Nothing is created until you accept it.
Does an AI meeting assistant work with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet? Most do. Strety’s AI Assistant works with all three and joins your call as a visible participant.
Is AI note-taking accurate enough for IDS decisions? It’s accurate enough to draft your solution notes and catch the next steps people tend to forget. In Strety, you can edit the AI’s solution notes on the spot during IDS or at Conclude, so the final record always reflects what your team decided.
How does AI handle sensitive information in meeting notes? It depends on the tool, so check whether recordings get deleted and whether your data trains AI models. Strety deletes raw recordings automatically after processing and processes transcripts with zero data retention.
Can the AI Assistant in Strety summarize 1:1s and Quarterly meetings too? Yes. Strety’s AI Assistant has summary templates for L10s, Quarterly and Annual sessions, and reviews, and it runs in your 1:1s once your Admin turns it on for person spaces.
Is EOS software with a built-in AI assistant worth it? For teams running weekly L10s, a built-in AI assistant saves your Scribe time every week and keeps To Dos from slipping through the cracks, all inside the tool you already use to run EOS.
