Can I turn raw notes into this map?

Yes. Tidy the notes into an indented outline and paste it into the editor, or use AI edit and ask it to arrange the content as meeting minutes.

Which format should I send to colleagues?

PNG for chat. Word for filing or further editing, since the source code is attached at the end.

Can action items show status?

Yes. Add a check mark or an hourglass in front of the text and update the same map at the next meeting.

Mind map

Meeting minutes mind map template

A meeting minutes mind map with five branches: meeting details, topics and decisions, action items, risks and open points, and next meeting. Action items name an owner and a due date. Use it after any meeting, then export PNG, SVG, Word or PowerPoint free.

Previewed in the “Light” theme; you can switch themes in the editor

When to use it

Use it to send decisions and action items within ten minutes of a meeting. A map scans faster than paragraphs: each topic has its decision right below it, and each action item is one line with one owner.

Make it yours

Put the meeting name and date in the root.
Write every action item as who, what, by when, so the next meeting can check them off.
With many topics, keep only the decision under each; discussion does not belong in minutes.

Draw a meeting minutes mind map with Mermaid mindmap syntax. The root is the meeting name and date, and the main branches are Meeting details, Topics and decisions, Action items, Risks and open points, and Next meeting. Put decisions under each topic, and write action items with an owner, a task and a due date. Put every node on its own line, show levels with space indentation, and do not use list markers, arrows or colons. Output only the mermaid code block.
