MeetingNotes by SmartKit helps teams prepare agendas, capture minutes, record decisions, assign action items, and share meeting summaries. Agendas can use time-boxed topics with owners, while discussion notes attach to those agenda items during the meeting. A decision register records who made each decision and when. Action items include an owner and due date, and unfinished items can carry forward automatically to the next meeting. Attendance tracking covers invitees, attendees, and apologies. Arabic and Urdu text are supported with right-to-left layouts and Unicode-safe rendering. Teams can share professional summaries and create printable PDFs. SmartKit presents MeetingNotes for teams, boards, committees, schools, standups, and recurring reviews. The product is described as mobile-first and available through SmartKit; its page does not identify a separate downloadable app. SmartKit says content stays in the creator’s workspace and is shared through selected access controls. The Free plan costs nothing, with no specific usage limits stated.
