Case study introduction

The challenge

A record that can be used

Meeting minutes often leave decisions and tasks inside prose. Tremvo treats them as records with owners, dates and outcomes, created while the meeting is happening. The interface needed to support that structure without making the conversation feel like form-filling.

The approach

An adaptable meeting room

The room is a canvas of modules for the table, agenda, notes, documents, decisions and actions. Modules can collapse, expand, move or take focus, allowing the workspace to suit different kinds of meeting.

The experience

Visibility by module

Notes, actions and documents have separate visibility controls. This lets a team share an agreed decision while keeping working material private.

Structure while writing

The writing model uses a shared field with the type selected before or after entry. The intent is to let people write naturally and add structure as they go.
