1. Customize Super Summaries apps from your Notepad

We have introduced a new workflow where you can customize your Super Summaries apps from within your Notepad.

After a meeting finishes, open your transcript and select Customize Notes. This provides quick access to tailor Super Summaries Apps without leaving your transcript.

50 prompts to customize Super Summaries apps for:

Sales calls
Daily huddles
One-on-one meetings

Here are the steps you need to follow:

Open the transcript and click Customize Notes

Click on Customize Notes

It will open a window where Super Summaries apps are listed—Meeting Keywords, Meeting Overview, Meeting Notes, Meeting Outline, and Action Items.

Once done, click Reprocess meeting Summary to run the new prompts for an already processed meeting. Here’s how to do it:

2. Reprocess meeting summaries

You can now regenerate summaries of already processed meetings after updating speaker labels, language settings, or Super Summaries apps.

For example, say you realize some old transcripts had inaccurate speaker labels assigned. Or you tweak your Super Summaries app for targeted highlights. In these cases, you can now reprocess those previous summaries to take advantage of the improved settings.

📌
Note: Reprocessing meeting summaries uses AI credits, and only a workspace Admin can do it.

To do this, in your Notepad, hover your mouse over the Summary section and click on the Reprocess summary. That’s it.

4. Automated Magic Soundbites

Automatically extract key meeting moments with the Magic Soundbites AI App. After each meeting, the Magic Soundbites app analyzes the conversation and automatically creates shareable audio clips of highlights.

Only Admins can automate Magic Soundbites, and it consumes AI credits to create the snippets.

There are two ways you can automate Magic Soundbites:

  • Automate Magic Soundbites via the Apps Section
  • Automate Magic Soundbites from Notepad

Automating Magic Soundbites via either method allows you to easily reference significant snippets later without sifting through entire meeting recordings or transcripts.

Automate Magic Soundbites via the Apps section

Log into your Fireflies account and open Apps from the navigation menu on the left side of your screen.

Turn the toggle near the Magic Soundbites app on.

Fireflies gives you full control over AI-generated highlights. You can customize prompts to guide what moments to look for and define the desired soundbite length.

If you don't want Magic Soundbites to run for every meeting, simply turn off the Automate toggle for the app in your Apps settings. 

Turn off the toggle to disable automation of Magic Soundbites

6. Custom data retention for enterprise customers

Auto-delete meeting settings

Find the Auto delete meeting option in the Meeting Settings of your Fireflies’ Settings Page.

Fireflies Enterprise customers can now set up Fireflies to automatically delete past meetings after a specific time period. This allows you to set policies around data retention that align with your organization’s compliance needs. 

For example, finance firms may need to delete meeting data after just a few months due to regulatory requirements. IT service companies may want to store meetings for a year or more for knowledge management.

With the auto-delete feature, admins can specify the retention period in days, weeks, or months. Once a meeting recording and transcript reaches the end of that defined period, Fireflies will automatically delete it from the system.
