AMTRA’S TOP PICKS

October

Missed the meeting? Audio recap brings you the highlights in seconds!

Audio recaps turn meeting transcripts into podcast-style summaries, so you can quickly catch up without watching the whole recording!

Three styles to choose from:

  • Newscast: One AI voice gives a clear summary.
  • Executive: Two AI voices share strategic points and decisions.
  • Casual: A friendly conversation with extra context for a relaxed feel.
  • Multi-meeting support: Combine up to eight meetings into one easy recap.
  • Playback flexibility: Listen on any device, change speed, skip parts, and switch between devices with a QR code.

Dive right in by selecting a transcribed meeting from your calendar—or make it even easier by adding the Meet App to your Teams App Bar for quick access!

How file summaries work for you!

Imagine never having to open a lengthy document just to get the gist of it.

This powerful Copilot feature transforms how you work by instantly summarizing Word and PDF files shared in your Teams chats, whether it’s a quick one-on-one or a busy group conversation.

Why it Works:

  • Saves Time: Skip the scrolling and get straight to the essentials.
  • Improves Collaboration: Everyone stays aligned with quick summaries.
  • Respects Security: Copilot honors sensitivity labels, keeping information protected.

Your shortcut to thread summaries!

Ever opened a Teams channel and thought, “Wow! That’s a lot of messages!” You’re not alone. Conversations in Teams can move fast—decisions, ideas, and action items often get buried under a flood of replies. 

Imagine this: You’ve been in back-to-back meetings all day. You open Teams and see 47 unread messages in the project channel. 

Do you scroll through every single one? Nope. You ask Copilot to summarize—and in seconds, you know:

  • What was discussed
  • What decisions were made
  • What you need to do next
