Auto-Captured Meetings

Every Copera meeting you join is captured automatically — no buttons, no setup. The moment you enter a meeting room, Tempo creates an activity block that records the channel, the start and end times, and the duration, and links to the meeting's notes when they exist. It marks you busy while the meeting is live, so your real day is always reflected in your calendar — and the AI scheduler always knows what you were actually doing.

How It Works

There is nothing to turn on. Auto-capture runs whenever you use Copera meetings:

  1. You join a Copera meeting room.
  2. Tempo immediately creates an activity block for it.
  3. While you are in the meeting, the block marks you busy.
  4. When the meeting ends, the block closes with the real start, end, and duration.
  5. If the meeting produced notes, the block links to them.

What a Captured Meeting Records

Each activity block captures:

DetailWhat it shows
Channel nameWhich meeting room the session was in.
Start and endWhen you actually joined and left.
DurationThe real time you spent in the room.
Notes linkA jump to the meeting's transcription and notes — when the meeting produced them.
info

The duration is your actual time in the room, not a planned length. If a 30-minute meeting ran to 50, the captured block reflects the full 50 minutes.

Why It Matters

Auto-captured meetings keep your availability honest and give the AI scheduler real context:

  • You won't get double-booked. Because captured meetings mark you busy, booking pages, find-a-time, and the AI scheduler all steer clear of times you were genuinely in a meeting.
  • The AI scheduler understands your real day. Instead of seeing only your planned events, it sees the meetings you actually attended — so when it proposes times or finds an open slot, it works around reality.
  • Your notes are one click away. Review last week's meetings and jump straight to their notes and action items.
tip

Pair auto-captured meetings with the AI Scheduler — ask it to "find an hour tomorrow that doesn't clash with my meetings" and it will account for the meetings you actually joined, not just the ones on your calendar.

Viewing Captured Meetings

Captured meetings appear in your calendar's activity context. You can browse them like any other block, and query your recent meetings over a date range to review what you attended in a given week or month.

Settings and Configuration

Auto-captured meetings are fully automatic — there are no settings to configure. They are created on join, closed when the meeting ends, and surfaced in your calendar as informational context.

Limits and Notes

  • Captured blocks are auto-generated — they cannot be created manually.
  • Duration reflects your actual time in the room.
  • A notes link only appears if the meeting produced notes.
  • These blocks are informational context that also feeds the AI scheduler.

Example Use Cases

  • No clashes — the AI scheduler avoids booking over a meeting you are currently in.
  • Weekly review — look back at last week's captured meetings and open each one's notes.
  • Honest availability — a long-running meeting keeps blocking your booking slots until you actually leave the room.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are auto-captured meetings in Copera Tempo?

When you join a Copera meeting room, Tempo automatically creates an activity block that records the channel name, start and end times, and duration — and, when available, a link to the meeting's notes. It marks you busy while the meeting is live, all with no action on your part.

Do I have to do anything to capture a meeting?

No. Capture is fully automatic. An activity block is created the moment you join a Copera meeting and closes when the meeting ends. You can view captured meetings in your calendar without ever setting them up.

Why do auto-captured meetings matter for scheduling?

They make you busy during the actual time you were in a meeting, so booking pages, find-a-time, and the AI scheduler all know not to schedule over real meetings. They give the AI scheduler an accurate picture of your real day rather than just your planned events.

Can I open the notes from a captured meeting?

Yes, when the meeting produced notes. The captured activity block links to the meeting's transcription and notes so you can jump straight to the summary and action items. If a meeting did not generate notes, no link appears.
