Speeding up the documentation process

Before Bluedot, Beyond’s meeting documentation process was manual and time-consuming. In their remote-first environment, more automated note-taking and summary creation were needed.

• The shift to a remote-first culture nearly five years ago increased reliance on digital communication tools.
• The process of manually taking notes and creating summaries from meetings was time-consuming and inefficient.

Implementing Bluedot’s security-first AI

To help teams become even more efficient, Beyond wanted to implement an AI-driven tool designed to automate the creation of meeting summaries and notes. Bluedot was chosen for its seamless integration with Google Workspace, compliance with Beyond’s strong security and privacy measures, and the ability to be tailored to specific organizational needs.

• A thorough security assessment ensured Bluedot met Beyond's high standards.
• The teams at Beyond like its ease of use, automation capabilities, and the Bluedot team's openness to feedback.
