AI Personal Assistant: Your Daily Digest, Meeting Prep, Tasks & More
Last updated: July 22, 2026
After every meeting, there's usually follow-ups, key decisions, and action items to keep track of. AI Personal Assistant brings everything together by surfacing important insights, preparing you for upcoming meetings, and organizing your tasks automatically.
It includes a bundle of AI features:
Daily Digest – Highlights the most important insights from your recent meetings.
Meeting Prep – Brings together relevant context before your upcoming meetings.
Tasks – Automatically collects action items from your meetings to help you stay on top of follow-ups.
You can also browse 200+ AI Skills to automate different parts of your workflow and enable the ones that fit your needs.
🚀 Want a quick walkthrough first? Watch this AI Personal Assistant community guide to see how Daily Digest, Meeting Prep, and Tasks help you stay ahead of your meetings. Then follow the steps below to manage it in Fireflies.
Some users may still see the previous AI Personal Assistant layout or different cards. Don't worry—this is expected. The new AI Personal Assistant experience is being rolled out gradually, so existing or older accounts may continue to see the previous interface until the rollout reaches their account.
👉🏻 AI Skills use dynamic AI credit pricing. AI credits are charged per request, so the number of AI credits used depends on the effort required to generate the output. Simpler requests may use fewer credits, while more complex requests may use more.
🆕 New Users (Fresh Sign-Up)
When you create a new Fireflies account, the AI Personal Assistant card appears on your Home dashboard.
Daily Digest and Meeting Prep are not enabled by default and consume AI credits once enabled.
Tasks is always enabled, cannot be disabled, and is free - it does not consume AI credits.
You can enable or disable any skill at any time from your AI Skills settings.
Once enabled, their cards will remain empty until you complete a few meetings. No sample data is shown, and insights begin only after your initial meetings have been processed.
To start seeing insights, you need to complete at least 3 meetings and wait for the next 24-hour processing cycle.
1. Daily Digest
After you enable Daily Digest from your AI Skills settings, Fireflies begins analyzing your meetings to generate personalized insights.
Once insights are available, Daily Digest may include:
Action items
Popular Topics from your recent meetings
Blockers
Open Questions
Other key meeting insights
Listen: Play an AI-generated audio summary of your Daily Digest to quickly catch up on meeting insights without reading through the full summary.
💡 Insights appear after Fireflies has processed enough meetings to generate them. If the card looks empty, give it some time — insights typically become available after at least 3 meetings and the next 24-hour refresh cycle.
2. Meeting Prep (Upcoming Meetings)
Meeting Prep appears when something is scheduled on your connected calendar. If you already have a few completed meetings in your account, the assistant uses that history to generate a brief for whatever is coming up next.
If nothing is scheduled yet, you may see:
“No upcoming meeting to prepare”
“Capture Meetings or upload meetings
Once your calendar is connected and something is on the schedule, Meeting Prep is created automatically. If you’ve had past discussions with the same people or topics, the assistant includes that context to help you prepare.
You can also toggle this skill on or off at any time based on your preferences.
3. Tasks (Free)
The Tasks card automatically collects action items from your meetings, helping you stay on top of follow-ups and next steps—all in one place.
Tasks may include:
Assigned action items
Follow-up tasks
Pending next steps
As you complete more meetings, the Tasks card is automatically updated with the latest action items from your conversations.
Tasks is always enabled, cannot be disabled, and is free - it does not consume AI credits.
