At Rocket®, we're constantly exploring ways to enhance our technological capabilities and improve team productivity. Today, I'm excited to share insights into our groundbreaking project, where we’re accelerating the speed of development using AI.

The challenge of meeting productivity

Meetings have long been acritical yet inefficient part of our work ecosystem. Traditionally, converting discussion points into actionable items was a time-consuming, manual process that could take days to complete. This project has beenour revolutionary solution to this universal challenge.

What is the speed of development using AI Project?

This is an initiative designed to be the ultimate post-meeting efficiency tool. 

By leveraging conversational AI, we've created a system that captures every spoken word during calls and transforms them into:

  • Detailed code update prompts

  • Accurate Azure DevOps (ADO) stories

  • Precise knowledge articles

  • Comprehensive project updates

Real-world impact: From concept to code

The original vision was to transform spoken code changes into executable reality. 

During our initial trials, we discovered a high level of efficiency in software development and additional efficiencies, including Code Prompt Generation, ADO Work Item Creation, and many expanded use cases, including integrations with Rocket Navigator.

Conversational code generation

When developers describe code changes during calls–mentioning specific lines of code, method names, and functionality–the system generates precise code prompts.

These prompts are immediately suitable for GitHub Copilot or Claude to implement, often without a single keystroke being typed.  

Once these prompts are created, we consume them into the Meeting Summaries UI and allow users to send them to Git as a Git Issue and assign Copilot to the change. Steps outlined below:

Automated story generation

What previously consumed days of manual documentation can now be accomplished in minutes. Our system:
  • Captures every nuance of technical discussions
  • Generates comprehensive stories automatically

  • Ensures no loss of context during transcription 

Creating stories is as easy as one, two, three!

  1. Sign in to your meeting dashboard.
  2. Analyze meetings for relevant content.

  3. Create work items, code prompts, and other post-meeting content.

1. Expanded use cases

Beyond code changes,we've successfully applied this to:

  • Project updates
  • Meeting recaps
  • Post-incident reviews (PIR)
  • Generating knowledge articles
  • Creating and tracking tasks post-meeting

2. Zoom integration: A game-changing partnership

A key breakthrough in the project has been our integration with Zoom.

The Zoom SDK andAI admin interfaces provide flexibility and organization level configurability, allowing us to:

  • Configure prompts at the organizational level so they can be made available to everyone at Rocket.

  • Standardize documentation styles such that we can look at documents created and immediately know where to find specific information (Zoom prompts allow us to customize and standardize our output).

By leveraging Zoom's configurable components, we've created a system that ensures every meeting is documented in a consistent, easily understood format, drawing from as well as creating a central knowledge base.

3. Human in the Loop: Putting users in control

At the core of this project is our commitment to human-centered AI. We've designed the system with a fundamental principle: technology should empower, not replace, human decision-making.

At the forefront of this technology is a user interface that allows our team members to select relevant information from meetings and choose what they want to do with it, as well as edit before sending into our ecosystem.

Key User-Centric Features:

1. Meeting privacy and control

  • All meeting content is initially available only to the meeting organizer.
  • Organizers have complete discretion over sharing meeting notes, code prompts, and stories.

  • Users choose which insights to act upon or distribute.

Below is the Zoom interface where you can see your meetings for the day, and meetings that have been shared with you, ensuring you are in the driver’s seat of where your information will go.

2. Intuitive post-meeting interface

  • Efficiently presents captured meeting information
  • Allows granular control over knowledge sharing
  • Enables users to: 
  • Update knowledge bases
  • Create project updates
  • Generate code prompts
  • Decide what content moves to different channels

This approach ensures that AI serves as a powerful assistant, with humans always makingthe final decisions about how information is used and shared.

Technical innovation

The project leverages enterprise tools to maximize efficiency:

  • Zoom AI Companion for meeting summaries
  • Git for automated version-controlled artifact storage
  • Azure DevOps for automated story and feature creation
  • Claude for intelligent code prompt generation

Strategic vision

This project represents more than a technological solution –it's a paradigm shift in how we collaborate, innovate, and deliver value. By minimizing manual work and maximizing AI-driven insights,we're positioning ourselves at the forefront of organizational productivity.

What's next?

We'll continue refining our AI-driven workflows,and work on innovating in such areas as:

  • Highlighting potential synergies or conflicts between different team initiatives and suggesting cross-team collaboration opportunities
  • Real-time compliance checking to help give real time guidance during brainstorming sessions 

Stay tuned as we continue to push the boundaries ofwhat's possible with conversational AI in the workplace.
