How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • ActionSummarize into one paragraph with follow-upsOpenAI
  • OutputAppend summary and link to standup threadSlack

What it does

Instead of batching standups, this workflow reacts the instant a new Loom video lands. It transcribes the recording, writes a short plain-English summary, and posts it into the running async-standup thread with the recorder's name and a jump link. The thread fills in throughout the day as people record, so anyone checking in sees the latest progress immediately.

When to use it

Use it for teams that record updates on their own schedule rather than at a fixed time, and want the recap to stay live rather than arrive once each morning. Best when low latency matters more than a single tidy roll-up.

How it works

  1. 1A Loom webhook fires when a new video is posted to the team space.
  2. 2A logic step confirms the video belongs to the standup folder and isn't a re-upload.
  3. 3The flow fetches the transcript for the new recording.
  4. 4The agent condenses it to a single summary paragraph with key follow-ups.
  5. 5Slack appends the summary and Loom link to the day's standup thread.
