This is a cool idea. can you share with me a real world use case you have seen so far with Muse?
@jaketital Hi! Currently individuals are bringing the calendar health score and meeting insights to retrospective meetings to review and improve/reschedule/cancel meetings with the team. They extract more focus time for the team by time boxing and no-meeting days. (saving time and decreasing costs)
Hehe loved the concept of 'ineffective meetings'. And it's so true. We spend a lot of hours on unnecessary meetings that could be addressed by a simple email or chat. Happy to see you helping on that Jana! All the best here!
I've been using beams for months now. Love it! excited to try this new feature.
This feature is soo valuable! Thanks for building this @jana_schellong and Beams team!

I have been using Beams for the past ~2 years, and I can't imagine working without it anymore! I love the focus feature, which allows me to increase my productivity, as well as how easy it is to organize and join meetings. Definitely try it out if you are ppl like me who has >20 hours of meetings every week!
@ben_shih thanks for providing such valuable feedback during the past 2 years. We're so grateful to have you as our early user and believer!
Congratulations on the launch, beams team! ๐
Meeting Muse sounds like a game-changer for optimizing team productivity and making meetings more meaningful. As a founder myself, I know the struggle of juggling countless meetings and the importance of making each one count.
I'm curious, how does Meeting Muse analyze meeting effectiveness? Are there specific metrics or indicators it looks for to provide optimization suggestions?
Wishing you all the best on your product journey! ๐
@mashy great questions. We're currently looking into the number of attendees, acceptance ratio, duration of the meeting, agenda, description and attachments of the meeting to evaluate the meeting's effectiveness. Looking for further feedback from users to enhance to optimize it for role and the goals.
What are the meetings that you think they're non-value-adding or time wasting?
@mihriminaz probably lack of agenda, but also note taking of core discussions and what action points need to get done, and then following up on those to ensure what was discussed is completed
That's great. Meetings can be a big time sink and this can help to get rid of unnecessary ones!! I like these actionable insights.
Congratulations Jana,
I appreciate the effort you have put in creating Beams. In my opinion, you should allow the visitor to scan the product first. You can show the sign in form once the user has scrolled a certain height. That will be a better experience. I might be wrong but that is just an opinion.
@mayoyo25 Hi Franklin, thanks for your feedback. For this launch on Product Hunt we decided to link to the product directly, as you already get an an intro about it here. We do have a website and landing page where you can scan the product. Check it out: https://usebeams.com/calendar-he...
Hey, Jana! Congrats on your launch! In my team, we have to conduct a large number of review meetings every day, with different people chairing each session. I'm looking for a way to track the usage time and overtime for each chairperson, as well as monitor participant engagement and gain insights during these meetings. Do you offer any features that can help with this?
@bryantchen Thanks for your question. Do I understand it correctly that you would like to track what is happening inside the meeting (e.g. a bot listening/transcribing)? While we don't do that yet, I'd love to understand your needs better. If you're up for a more detailed exchange, feel free to email me at jana@usebeams.com
@pamsny Thank you so much! We're currently looking into the number of attendees, acceptance ratio, duration of the meeting and since when it's been scheduled and (lack of) agenda or attachements to evaluate the meeting's effectiveness. The cost estimate is calculated based on duration, number of participants and an average salary. Looking for further feedback from users to enhance to optimize it their role and goals.
What are the meetings that you think they're non-value-adding or time wasting?
@jana_schellong wow nice! is there a way to evaluate a meeting afterwards, such as score it or let beams know it was a great meeting?
I'm pretty lucky in that I don't have too many meetings at PH (2-3 weekly). But I have been at startups where there is a daily check in meeting and I felt like that was not super value adding.
@pamsny So cool that you suggest that. We are actually working on exactly that feature where you can evaluate meetings afterwards and give feedback to the organizer. Can't wait for you to try it ๐คฉ

Congrats on the launch! The idea of analyzing Google Calendar to identify non-value-adding meetings and offering suggestions for improvement is super useful. What specific criteria does Meeting Muse use to determine which meetings aren't contributing value, and can it suggest practical steps to make them more efficient?
@anastasia_chakileva_ great question! As @mihriminaz replied above:
