Oak for Project Managers Half your week is meetings; the other half is writing them up. Oak takes the second half — decisions, owners and edits, linked to the second they were said.
The PM situation
You're the connective tissue between standups, planning, retros and steering committees — and the person everyone expects to remember what was agreed. Decisions get lost between the call and the wiki. "Who owns this?" becomes a weekly refrain. Edit suggestions on shared docs evaporate the moment the meeting ends.
In a Hong Kong team that mixes Cantonese and English on the fly, generic notetakers drop the very decisions and owners you most need to keep — so you end up re-writing them anyway. This page is the persona view; for the meeting-by-meeting mechanics see the Project Management workflow.
How Oak fits your week
- → Decisions and action items by owner, captured automatically and ready to review and share.
- → Automatic speaker tagging — every point attributed to who said it, so you can trace exactly who raised, owned or agreed to something.
- → Ask AI: "What's the latest conclusion on [the password policy]?" (coming soon) — drawn from every meeting where it came up, not just the last one.
- → Everything timestamped to its source moment, so a contested decision is one click from the recording.
- → Bring Oak Bot into remote standups and planning (beta) — on Google Meet, Zoom or Teams it joins as a visible participant, and the notes upload on their own once you hang up. How it works.
What you get back
- Decisions traceable to the second
- "Who owns this?" answered automatically
- Every point traceable to who said it
- Around 2 hours a week back per PM

Oak for project managers: common questions
How are owners assigned to action items?
Oak detects who committed to each action during the call and assigns them automatically, so nothing slips because it wasn't claimed out loud.
Can I get the latest conclusion on an issue that spanned several meetings?
Coming soon — Ask AI will return the most recent agreed outcome drawn from every meeting where an issue came up, not just the last one. Today you can ask within a single meeting. See the Project Management workflow.
Do my standups and planning calls have to be in person?
No. For remote and hybrid teams, invite Oak Bot to the Google Meet, Zoom or Teams call (currently in beta). It joins as a visible participant, captures the conversation live, and uploads the decisions, owners and timestamps to your account when the meeting ends — nothing to export. See Live Meeting Integration.
How is this different from the Project Management workflow page?
This page frames Oak around you as a person and your whole week; the workflow page goes deep on the mechanics of a single meeting type. Same engine, two lenses.
