Meetings

Group video calls with screen sharing run on your own servers. A meeting is recorded and transcribed when you ask, its minutes carry action items with a name on each, and each of those is a task in somebody's cartable.

The day's work About Meetings

What it is for

Video on your own servers
Calls are routed by a media server and a relay that you run. Nothing of a call passes through a third party.
A meeting is one room
Its chat, its people, its recording and its minutes are one record. A call restarted inside its time is the same meeting, resumed.
Recorded and transcribed
Switch Record on in the call. The recording is transcribed afterwards, and the minutes are written from what was said.
Action items become tasks
Each action in the minutes is given to a person, lands in their cartable and is reported on like any other task.
Guests by a link
Somebody outside the organisation joins from a link with a code - no account - and is in that meeting only.
Play something together
Start a quick quiz or a game from Game Studio in the meeting: everyone answers on their own screen.

Getting started

  1. Plan a meeting in Calendar, or press Call in a conversation.
  2. Share your screen, switch Record on if the meeting should be kept.
  3. After it ends, open the meeting: recording, transcript and minutes are there.

Tasks

Invite someone from outside

  1. Open the meeting.
  2. Copy its guest link.
  3. They open it in a browser, say their name, and wait to be let in.

Give out the action items

  1. Open the meeting's minutes.
  2. Name a person on each action.
  3. It appears in their cartable; the minutes show when it is done.

Record a call

  1. In the call, press Record.
  2. Everyone sees that it is being recorded.
  3. Press it again to stop; the recording is kept with the meeting.

Questions

Do guests see our people or our chats?

No. A guest is in one meeting's room and nowhere else.

Which engine transcribes?

The one you configure. Divan falls back across the engines you have set up when one refuses.

Are invitations sent by mail?

They can be: a designed invitation that wears your brand, with answer links for people outside. An administrator switches that on.

Calendar
Your meetings, your other calendars, the dates of your work.
Cartable
Everything waiting for you, in one list.
Messenger
Team chat that lives where the work is.
