FIRST SPARK
How I started Working with other departments and clients, I realized that each group uses different industry-specific terms, and I sometimes struggled to get used to them.
     
I jot down key terms and keywords at the very beginning whenever I start new work.






Problems
 Having noticed that junior, entry-level, and seasoned professionals (myself included) struggle with unfamiliar terms when working across departments, I decided to dig deeper.




NEEDs
 AI meeting recorders were already out there, but I wanted one that went beyond basic playback. It should:
  • catch common industry terms and show how frequently they’re used
  • spotlight key topics and jargon for quick follow-up
  • wrap it all in a fun, engaging design that makes learning the lingo effortless(Important)

Meeting Glossary Searching



I interviewed current employees who told me they rely on company apps during meetings, yet they still run into unfamiliar terms they don’t recognize on the spot.

 User Survey
  • 51.4 % of employees hesitate to ask for clarification during meetings.
  • 45.7 % become curious when unfamiliar jargon comes up.
    •  
    *Participants: 35, all employed.




    Insights

    Meetings shouldn’t be treated as one-time events.
    People need ways to revisit and follow up.
