Use case
Turn meeting notes into tickets your team can start
After every discovery call somebody has to sit down and turn what was said into tickets. It takes most of an afternoon, it happens from memory, and the last few tickets are always thinner than the first few. Spectr writes the first draft. You read it, fix what is wrong, and publish. The work goes from writing to checking.
The ticket is fine. It is what got left out that costs you Monday
You write tickets two days after the call, for people who were not in the room. The requirement makes it in. The reason for it does not. Neither does the constraint someone mentioned in passing, or the thing the client said they did not want. That is what the follow-up questions are always about. It is not carelessness - nobody has the recording, the Notion page, the Figma file and the codebase open at once while writing ticket fourteen of nineteen.
What it actually looks like
A Tuesday at a 12-person product agency. Client discovery call, 48 minutes, three people on it.
2:48pm
Call ends. Fathom already has the recording, the summary and the action items.
2:52pm
You open the project in Spectr, click Import meeting, and pick the call from the list. Spectr only shows you calls that look relevant to this project.
2:53pm
Spectr reads the call. It also reads the three Notion pages and the Figma file you pinned to this project, plus the repo, so it knows your feature names and what already exists.
3:04pm
A spec sheet appears: 9 requirements, 2 bugs, 4 decisions, 6 action items. Each one has a draft story under it with acceptance criteria, a type and an estimate.
3:05pm
You go through them. Seven are right as written - you bulk-approve those. Two need a sentence changed, so you edit them inline. One is out of scope, so you reject it with a note.
3:24pm
You hit publish. Nine issues appear in Linear with descriptions, labels, estimates and assignees already set.
Roughly four hours of writing tickets on a Friday afternoon, plus the questions on Monday, has turned into about 35 minutes of reading and approving on the same afternoon as the call.
Bring in the call, not just a summary
Connect Fathom, Granola, Read.ai or Fireflies and import a call in one click. Spectr filters each list down to the meetings that look relevant to the project you are in, so you are not scrolling through a month of standups. No note-taker on the call? Paste the transcript, or upload a PDF or TXT file. Spectr keeps the AI notes, the action items and the full transcript, and reads the notes first because that is where the useful part usually is.
You get structure, not a summary
Spectr splits what it finds into four kinds of thing: requirements, bugs, decisions and action items. That split matters later. A bug becomes a bug in your tracker rather than a story. A decision is something to write down, not something to build. And each item points back to the part of the call it came from, so you can check it.
It reads your docs before it writes
Pin the Notion pages, Figma files, Google Docs and GitHub repos that define your project. Spectr reads them on every run. That is the difference between a ticket that says "add a filter to the results list" and one that names your actual components, references the endpoint that already exists, and gives an estimate that reflects what the change really touches. If you have PostHog or Sentry connected, real error numbers go in too, with the date they were taken.
Nothing goes out without you
Drafts land on a review page. Approve one at a time or in bulk, edit any of them inline first, reject the ones that are wrong. Only what you approve gets published, and it arrives in Jira, Linear or Shortcut with type, priority, labels, estimate and assignee already filled in. There is no setting that lets Spectr publish on its own. That is on purpose.

Frequently asked questions
How long does one meeting take to process?
Usually a few minutes. Reading your docs, pulling out the spec and writing the stories run as background jobs, and the page fills in as each finishes. You do not sit and watch it.
What if nobody recorded the call with a note-taker?
Paste the transcript in, or upload a PDF or TXT file. Everything after that is identical.
Can several meetings feed one spec sheet?
Yes. Pick a few and Spectr treats them as one run. Each meeting gets its own share of the budget, so one three-hour workshop cannot crowd out the two short calls next to it.
Will it make up things nobody said?
It writes from the call plus the docs you pinned, and each item points back to where it came from so you can check it. That is also why the review step is not optional - you are the one who decides what is real.
