I used to sit in sessions, take notes, then spend more time turning them into something useful.

It’s simple, but powerful, it forces you to focus on meaning, not noise.

And it makes it much easier to share, align, and act. This is something I’ve been leaning into more as part of how I use AI as a thinking partner, not just a tool.

So I built a reusable prompt to do exactly that.

Curious if anyone else prefers thinking in visuals rather than notes? 🎯
