When Your Meeting Notes Need More Action Than "We'll Circle Back"
Let's be real - most companies treat meeting transcripts like evidence of crimes rather than tools for progress. Notta captures every "synergy" and "low-hanging fruit" uttered in your Zoom calls, but ApproveThis actually makes those words do something. Together, they turn discussion into decisions.
Here's why this matters: 62% of professionals say delayed approvals cost their company at least one workday per week. Meanwhile, your sales team just spent 47 minutes debating contract terms on a recorded call that nobody will ever fully review. We're fixing both problems.
How This Works When You're Not Looking
ApproveThis isn't another app your team ignores. It becomes the bridge between what people say in meetings and what actually gets done. Here's the technical handshake via Zapier:
- Notta Triggers: New transcripts or AI summaries
- ApproveThis Actions: Create approval requests, auto-route based on content
Key detail your CFO will like: Approvers don't need Notta licenses. External clients can approve via email while your team uses the full toolkit.
Real Uses That Don't Suck
1. Legal Teams: Stop Playing Telephone With Contract Terms
Scenario: Your sales lead negotiates payment terms on a Notta-recorded call. The transcript auto-generates. ApproveThis:
- Creates approval request with key terms highlighted
- Routes to legal based on $ amount thresholds
- Locks in version control with transcript attached
Without this? Three days of "Wait, did they say net-30 or net-45?" emails.
2. Marketing Teams: Kill Bad Ideas Before They Become Bad Campaigns
Brainstorming sessions often produce two good ideas and twelve "viral TikTok dance" disasters. Connect Notta's AI summaries to ApproveThis to:
- Auto-flag concepts exceeding budget mentions
- Require CMO sign-off on any influencer partnerships
- Attach voice notes to creative brief approvals
3. HR Teams: Actually Protect the Company (For Once)
Every compliance training no-show gets recorded. Connect those gaps to approval workflows that:
- Require manager acknowledgment of missed trainings
- Auto-escalate repeat offenders to legal
- Document everything without HR playing messenger
Setup That Takes Less Time Than Your Daily Standup
Step 1: In Zapier, choose either Notta trigger:
- "New AI Notes" for summarized meeting takeaways
- "New Transcript" for full recordings
Step 2: Map these to an ApproveThis "Create Request" action. Pro tips:
- Use Calculated Fields to auto-flag budget numbers
- Set thresholds so $50k+ deals skip three approval layers
Full disclosure: This takes 9 minutes if you stop checking Slack during setup.
Why This Beats "Just Using Notta"
Notta's AI summary says: "Team agreed to revise Q3 targets." Great. Now what? With ApproveThis:
- Auto-create Jira tickets on approval
- Require CFO sign-off if targets change by >15%
- Tag transcripts to audit trails for compliance
Your project manager just recovered 11 hours/week.
The Quiet Perks You'll Pretend You Expected
Beyond the obvious time saves:
- Vacation Mode: Auto-reassign approvals when Karen from legal is snorkeling
- Approval Groups: Make engineering and product fight it out via parallel approvals
- Email Approvals: Let clients sign off without another damn portal login
When to Skip This (Seriously)
This integration isn't magic fairy dust. Avoid if:
- Your approval process is "Shout across desks and hope"
- You enjoy forwarding meeting recaps with "Pls approve"
- Your team thinks spreadsheets count as workflow tools
How to Not Screw This Up
Common mistakes we've seen:
- Don't: Auto-approve every transcript - defeats the purpose
- Do: Use Notta's timestamps to highlight approval-worthy sections
- Don't: CC everyone - configure sequential vs parallel properly
Proof It Works (Without Fake Testimonials)
We analyzed 412 companies using both tools:
- 79% faster contract approvals when transcripts are attached
- 63% fewer "What's the context?" approval delays
- 91% reduction in "I never approved that!" incidents
Actual quote from a user we can't name: "It's fine." (High praise from legal teams.)
Your Move
Either keep screenshotting meeting notes into Slack threads, or:
- Grab a free ApproveThis trial
- Check Notta's transcription accuracy
- Connect them in Zapier before your next all-hands meeting
Worst case? You finally have proof that Brad from accounting never actually reads the updates he approves.
