Free action item tracker template
Copy this template into a document or spreadsheet to keep client commitments clear. When manual tracking becomes repetitive, Deal Todo can create and maintain the same source-backed structure from uploaded recordings, with pasted text as a fallback.
A basic checklist records what to do, but often loses who committed, when it is due, and which words established the obligation.
A useful tracker also needs a review trail. After another call, you should be able to tell whether an item is still current, changed, blocked, or complete.
Duplicate the block below once per action item. Use YYYY-MM-DD for dates, preserve the speaker’s exact words in Source quote, and write Unknown when the conversation does not establish a field.
Action item: Owner: Due date: YYYY-MM-DD | Unknown Status: Not started | In progress | Blocked | Done Priority: High | Medium | Low | Unknown Source quote: “Exact words from the client conversation” Source: Recording or transcript name + date Last reviewed: YYYY-MM-DD Notes / next check:
Action item: Send the revised onboarding plan Owner: Maya Due date: 2026-08-05 Status: In progress Priority: High Source quote: “Maya will send the revised onboarding plan by next Wednesday.” Source: Acme kickoff recording — 2026-07-29 Last reviewed: 2026-08-01 Notes / next check: Confirm receipt in the next client call
Owner, due date, status, and priority make the expected next step explicit.
An exact quote and named source make each important item traceable.
Last-reviewed and next-check fields keep old commitments from silently going stale.
Create an item when the conversation supports a specific action; keep uncertain discussion in notes.
Copy the exact source words and identify the recording or transcript before relying on the task.
Compare new information with the current tracker before changing status, owner, or deadline.
Record why an item changed instead of replacing it with another disconnected meeting checklist.
Deal Todo does not automatically join Zoom or Google Meet. You upload a client recording as the primary input, or paste a transcript or notes as a fallback. It creates source-backed Todos, then turns later materials into reviewable ADD, UPDATE, or MAYBE_DONE suggestions.
Yes. Copy it into a document, spreadsheet, or task tool and adapt it to your workflow.
Write Unknown instead of guessing, then add the missing decision to Notes / next check.
No. Its primary input is a recording you upload. Pasted transcripts or notes are the fallback.
Later materials create reviewable additions, updates, or possible-completion suggestions. You apply or reject each change.
