Convert Fathom meeting transcripts to formatted Google Docs with AI summaries

Description

Transcript → AI Analysis → Formatted Doc

This workflow automatically converts Fathom meeting transcripts into beautifully formatted Google Docs with AI-generated summaries, key points, decisions, and action items.

Good to know
Works fully with Fathom free account
Webhook responds immediately to prevent Fathom timeout and duplicate triggers
Validates transcript quality (3+ conversation turns) before AI processing to save costs
Uses Google Gemini API (generous free tier and rate limits, typically enough to avoid paying for API requests, but check latest pricing at Google AI Pricing)
Creates temporary HTML file that's auto-deleted after conversion

Who's it for
Individuals or teams using Fathom for meetings who want more control and flexibility with their AI meeting analysis and storage independently of Fathom, as well as automatic, formatted documentation without manual note-taking. Perfect for recurring syncs, client meetings, or interview debriefs.

How it works
Fathom webhook triggers when meeting ends and sends transcript data
Validates transcript has meaningful conversation (3+ turns)
Google Gemini AI analyzes transcript and generates structured summary (key points, decisions, actions, next steps)
Creates formatted HTML with proper styling
Uploads to Google Drive and converts to native Google Doc
Reduces page margins for readability and deletes temporary HTML file

Requirements
Fathom account with API webhook access (available on free tier)
Google Drive account (OAuth2)

Activate workflow

Customizing this workflow
Change save location: Edit "Upload File as HTML" node → update "Parent Folder"
Modify AI output: Edit "AI Meeting Analysis" node → customize the prompt to add/remove sections (e.g., risks, follow-ups, sentiment, etc)
Adjust document margins: Edit "Reduce Page Margins" node → change margin pixel values
Add notifications: E.g. add Slack/Email node after "Convert to Google Doc" to notify team when summary is ready

Quick Troubleshooting
"Transcript Present?" fails: Fathom must send transcript_merged with 3+ conversation turns (i.e. only send to Gemini for analysis if there's a genuine transcript)
HTML as plain text: Check "Convert to Google Doc" uses POST to /copy endpoint
401/403 errors: Re-authorize Google credentials
Inadequate meeting notes: Edit prompts in "AI Meeting Analysis" node
