Meeting types
Which meeting are you trying to fix?
The mechanics are the same everywhere: the preparation happens on a link during the week, the live part is short and answered from phones, and the deck stays readable for whoever could not be there.
What changes is the shape. Pick the meeting you actually run and see how it works with Curact.
All types
Eleven meetings, one way of preparing them
Each page covers what usually goes wrong, which slide types to use, and what the week around the meeting looks like.
Product development
Sprint reviews where the status reading takes the hour the decisions needed.
Squads write their own slides during the week and agents draft from Slack and your boards, so the call starts on the open questions.
Read moreSales
A pipeline spreadsheet read out loud while the confident rep gets the airtime.
Reps write their own pages before the meeting and KPI owners are nudged for a fresh figure, so the call is coaching, not reporting.
Read moreCustomer feedback
One loud anecdote beats the pattern, and nothing becomes work afterwards.
Everyone who talks to customers writes their themes on a link beforehand, and each agreed fix leaves with a named owner.
Read moreAll-hands / town hall
A broadcast at an hour that half the company is asleep for.
Questions asked and upvoted before the meeting, teams writing their own spotlight, and the deck readable afterwards for every time zone.
Read moreKPI & business review
A deck rebuilt by hand every month, with half the numbers already stale.
Each number has an owner who is asked for a fresh figure, last period carries over, and follow-ups come back with a status.
Read moreProject kickoff
Scope in one person's head and decisions nobody wrote down.
Goal, scope, milestones and risks written by their owners in advance, and every open decision leaving with a name and a date.
Read moreRetro / check-in
The same three people speak; the quiet feedback never surfaces.
Anonymous 1–5 scales and word clouds answered from a phone, so the honest signal is on the screen before the discussion starts.
Read moreWorkshop / brainstorm
Ideas on a whiteboard that stays on the whiteboard.
Contributions collected on a link days ahead, prioritised by a live vote from everyone's phone, and turned into follow-ups with owners.
Read moreOnboarding / welcome
A calendar invite and a hope that someone does the intro.
A repeatable welcome deck: who's who, an icebreaker from phones, and a page the new colleague writes themselves before day one.
Read moreCulture & social
Remote teams that never talk about anything but work.
Highlights, photos and this-or-that rounds collected async, shown as two minutes at the top of a meeting you already have.
Read moreQuiz / game
A separate polling tool, a separate deck, a separate scoreboard.
Quiz slides, teams and a leaderboard live in the same deck, answered from everyone's phone.
Read moreWhat they share
The same three moves, whatever the meeting is called
If your meeting is not on the list, it is almost certainly a mix of these.
Collect before
A link posted to Slack or sent by email asks the people who have something to say for a few words and a picture. No account needed to answer.
Answer from phones
Polls, 1–5 scales, word clouds, quizzes and questions from the room are slide types in the deck, answered by scanning a QR code.
Leave a record
The deck is posted back to Slack and kept in the archive, and recurring meetings carry their slides and follow-ups into the next round.
