The short answer
Use resumo da reunião for meeting summary and decisão for decision. Start with the project's name and date, then list the one or two main decisions in plain language.
Open with a short meeting summary
If something remains undecided, label it as an open question rather than writing it as an agreement.
Segue um resumo da nossa reunião de hoje.
Here's a summary of our meeting today.
Ainda precisamos decidir o formato da apresentação.
We still need to decide on the presentation format.
Name the owner and deadline for each task
Responsável is owner or person responsible, and prazo is deadline. Write each action as a verb and name one person or team who will handle it.
Use até + date to state when an action is due. If the date is a target rather than a firm commitment, explain that clearly.
Eu envio a nova proposta até terça-feira.
I'll send the new proposal by Tuesday.
A equipe do cliente confirma os textos até dia 18.
The client's team will confirm the copy by the 18th.
Invite corrections to the written recap
Ask the client to flag an error or missing decision. Uma correção is a correction; um ponto pendente is an outstanding item.
A short follow-up is useful only if it reflects what the group actually agreed. Make any correction before treating a task as confirmed.
Se esqueci algum ponto, pode me avisar?
If I missed anything, could you let me know?
Você pode confirmar se esses prazos estão corretos?
Could you confirm whether these deadlines are correct?
Put it into practice
Record decisions separately from open questions, assign an owner and deadline, and invite the client to correct the recap.
