Key Decisions & Risks
Transcription Provider: ElevenLabs selected for better accuracy on overlapping speech; contract signature required by 2026-06-20 to keep timeline on track. Planning Meeting 2026-06-09.md
Slack Notifications Scope: Notifications limited to action items assigned to the user—not all events. Planning Meeting 2026-06-09.md
Date Resolution: Ambiguous relative dates (e.g., "next Tuesday") resolve relative to the meeting date; low-confidence interpretations flagged for user confirmation. Planning Meeting 2026-06-09.md
Risk: If alpha slips past 2026-07-15, beta launch at 2026-08-15 is at risk. Planning Meeting 2026-06-09.md
