Hi Mike, What particular advantages do you see between grain clips vs written minutes from a meeting?

In my field there are many instances where an item on the agenda is talked through for 15mins and the minute-taker can summarise into a couple of lines/paragraph.

I'm struggling to see how a video clip can deliver a similar summarisation, unless someone has vocally summarised at the end for the clip.

Frankly this wouldn't make for a great highlight clip. You could make it but nobody would watch it.

Grain is best for that punchy quote you want to share mid-moment or for the summary 30 second wrap-up at the end.

We have changed our dialogue to include these at the end of convos b/c that way it's easy to summarize conclusions and next steps to document and share with others. Most good meetings have these anyway.
