Turn Sales Call Recordings into CRM Summaries and Next Steps
An n8n workflow that takes a finished sales call recording, transcribes it, has Claude write a summary with objections, buying signals and clear next steps, and saves it as a note on the CRM deal — so reps stop typing recaps and managers get consistent, searchable call intelligence.

Frequently asked questions
How does transcription work?
The recording URL (from Zoom, Meet, or a dialer) is sent to a speech-to-text API, or an Apify/Whisper endpoint, which returns the transcript. That text is what Claude summarizes. If your meeting tool already provides a transcript, skip straight to the summary step.
What does the summary include?
The prompt asks for a tight recap, the prospect's stated objections, any buying signals, the agreed next step with an owner and date, and a deal-health read. This structure is far more useful to a manager than a rep's free-form notes — and it's consistent across the team.
