Turning AI Meeting Notes Into Marketing Insights: How GTM Teams Use Fellow + Zapier

If you’ve ever sat through a discovery call and thought, “This is gold, but how do we make this visible and actionable to the team?”, you’re not alone. Every conversation with a prospect holds a wealth of insight about what’s working in your go-to-market strategy; from which channels are bringing people in, to which messages resonate, to which challenges are prompting prospects to reach out.

The problem is, most tracking systems only tell part of the story. Attribution dashboards show clean numbers, but they miss the human context behind them. UTM parameters can break, “direct” traffic can spike mysteriously, and influence can come from unmeasurable moments like a podcast mention or a LinkedIn post shared inside a private community.

To truly understand what’s driving awareness and conversion, GTM teams need more than numbers, they need narratives. The why behind the what. That’s where qualitative data, extracted from real customer conversations, becomes invaluable.

With Fellow + Zapier, you can capture those qualitative insights directly from your AI meeting notes, automate their analysis, and turn them into actionable intelligence without any manual tagging, chasing down reps, or managing spreadsheets.

How to turn AI meeting notes into marketing insights with Fellow and Zapier

Every great automation starts with a simple idea: how can we capture the insights hidden inside our meetings and make them visible to the team? For GTM organizations, every discovery call contains marketing gold like insights about buyer motivations, messaging resonance, and real-world attribution clues. This section breaks down how Fellow and Zapier work together to transform those meetings into a real-time source of marketing intelligence.

What is the “How Did You Find Out About Us?” Zap and how does it work?

At Fellow, we built a workflow that answers that exact question, literally. The “How Did You Find Out About Us?” Zap is a simple but powerful automation that bridges the gap between AI meeting notes and GTM visibility.

When a discovery call happens, Fellow’s AI Note-Taker automatically captures and summarizes the conversation, including the prospect’s challenges, motivations, and where they first heard about your company. The note is then automatically shared to a dedicated Channel in Fellow, so that every similar meeting is organized in one place for analysis.

How Zapier automates insight extraction from Fellow AI notes

Once the note lands in your Fellow Channel, Zapier takes over. It detects new AI Notes, filters for specific meeting types (like discovery or new business calls), and uses ChatGPT and AI by Zapier to analyze the content. Within seconds, it identifies how the customer discovered your product, what challenges they mentioned, and which themes or keywords appear most often across conversations.

This process transforms your meeting notes into structured data points. This means no manual tagging, no spreadsheets, and no post-meeting follow-up required.

How to share automated meeting insights with your team in Slack

Once the analysis is complete, the automation sends a concise, structured summary directly into Slack, giving GTM teams visibility in real time. A typical post might look like this:

💡 Found via: LinkedIn post by Aydin
🚧 Challenge: Their current note-taker violates privacy policies
🗣 Quote: “We’re looking for a botless, SOC-2-compliant option.”

Within moments of a meeting ending, your entire team sees authentic customer quotes, channel attribution, and context; all automatically shared to the tool where they already collaborate.

Why this automation matters for GTM and marketing teams

This workflow streamlines operations while also closing the gap between conversations and decisions. By automating the collection of customer language and intent, GTM and marketing teams gain access to insights that can inform messaging, positioning, and campaign strategy. It’s the simplest way to operationalize “voice of the customer” data at scale.

Why this Fellow + Zapier workflow works so well

Great workflows rely on great foundations. Fellow’s structure with Channels, AI Notes, and built-in security makes it uniquely suited for safe, scalable automation. This section explores why the Fellow + Zapier combination is so effective for turning meeting data into actionable insights.

Channels keep your meeting insights organized for automation

Fellow’s Channels serve as structured containers for your meeting notes, making automation seamless. By routing all discovery calls or customer meetings into a single channel, Zapier has a predictable, clean source to monitor. This setup keeps your data tidy, reduces workflow friction, and ensures consistency across automations.

Structured AI notes make automation more accurate

Unlike raw transcripts, Fellow’s AI Notes go beyond word-for-word transcription. They distill sentiment, decisions, and motivations into readable, context-rich summaries. This structure allows AI systems like Zapier or ChatGPT to analyze information quickly and accurately, and thus ensures it produces higher-quality insights than any transcript or recording alone could deliver.

Fellow keeps AI meeting automations secure and compliant

Fellow is built with enterprise-grade security that ensures every automation remains compliant with your organization’s privacy policies. With SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliance, redaction options, and granular access controls, you can safely connect Fellow with automation tools like Zapier knowing your meeting content remains protected.

Why qualitative data from AI meeting notes improves marketing attribution

Marketing teams often rely on dashboards to tell them what’s working, but those numbers rarely explain why. When paired with quantitative data, qualitative insights from AI meeting notes reveal the missing narrative behind every conversion.

Attribution dashboards alone don't tell the full story

Attribution models are excellent at showing where conversions happen but not why. Your analytics might say “30% of leads came from organic search,” but discovery calls often reveal the real story: maybe those leads first saw a LinkedIn post or heard your CEO on a podcast before searching. Meeting data fills that critical context gap, giving you visibility into the untracked parts of your funnel.

AI meeting notes can find patterns in customer behavior

By analyzing AI Notes at scale, GTM teams can uncover behavioral trends like which features keep getting mentioned, what pain points dominate conversations, or which messages resonate across segments. These insights can validate or reshape your positioning, helping marketing and sales teams better align with real customer sentiment.

How to turn qualitative insights into actionable marketing data

Once captured and automated, qualitative data becomes just as measurable as quantitative metrics. By combining AI meeting summaries with attribution data in tools like HubSpot or GA4, you can identify what’s actually influencing deals, not just tracking what’s easiest to measure.

How GTM, RevOps, and customer teams can use AI meeting insights

The Fellow + Zapier automation may have started as a marketing experiment, but its value extends across every revenue-facing team. Here’s how each department can apply this workflow to make better, faster decisions.

Marketing teams can turn conversations into campaign insights

For marketers, AI meeting notes are a goldmine for messaging. By analyzing discovery calls, marketing teams can uncover which value propositions resonate most, which pain points drive urgency, and which campaigns sparked interest, all directly from the customer’s voice.

Sales teams can use AI notes to refine discovery calls

Sales leaders can use the same automation to track common objections, competitor mentions, or success drivers mentioned during calls. Reviewing AI summaries at scale helps teams refine talk tracks, improve discovery questions, and tailor follow-ups to what actually matters most to prospects.

RevOps teams can combine AI meeting data with CRM data

RevOps teams can blend qualitative insights from Fellow with quantitative CRM metrics to create a more holistic view of the funnel. Understanding what pain points correlate with faster deal cycles or higher retention helps prioritize resources and refine forecasting models.

Customer success teams can capture 'why they bought this' insights

Customer Success teams can automatically surface the context behind every deal, like why the customer bought, what “success” means to them, and what pain points they hope to solve. These insights lead to smoother onboarding, more proactive support, and higher retention.

Building the Fellow + Zapier automation for your team

Once you understand how it works, building this workflow is surprisingly simple. With Fellow’s AI Notes, Zapier’s automation triggers, and a few setup steps, any team can create a system that continuously turns meetings into insights.

Set up the Fellow + Zapier workflow in under 30 minutes

If you already use Zapier, setting up this automation takes less than 30 minutes. You’ll need a Fellow workspace with AI Notes enabled, a dedicated Channel for discovery or customer calls, and a Zapier account to manage the automation. Once configured, every new meeting note can automatically trigger an analysis and Slack summary, no extra effort required.

Start small and scale your AI automations over time

If you’re new to automation, begin with a single workflow such as sharing discovery call summaries in Slack. Once that’s running smoothly, you can layer on additional automations: sending meeting data to your CRM, analyzing notes by keyword, or creating a dashboard of customer quotes. Each workflow builds on the last, expanding your organization’s collective insight.

Turn static meeting notes into dynamic GTM intelligence

The true power of this system is momentum. Over time, your meeting notes become intelligence for your entire GTM team. By automating the flow of insights across teams, Fellow and Zapier transform everyday conversations into a living, breathing source of GTM strategy and collaboration.

Conclusion

Every customer conversation contains signals that can shape strategy, messaging, and growth. The challenge lies in connecting these moments. By pairing Fellow’s AI meeting notes with Zapier’s automation power, teams can bridge the gap between what’s said in meetings and what gets acted on across marketing, sales, and operations.

Instead of sifting through transcripts or relying on broken attribution models, your GTM teams can see exactly what’s driving awareness, conversion, and retention surfaced automatically, securely, and at scale.
