Weekly notes review
Summarize the week's Mem notes into themes, ideas, and open loops — delivered every Friday.
Every Friday afternoon, review everything I captured in Mem this week and give me a synthesis so the
week's thinking doesn't just pile up.
Search my Mem notes from the last 7 days and produce:
- A short summary of what I was thinking about this week — the main threads, in 3–5 lines.
- Key ideas or decisions worth keeping, as bullets.
- Open loops: questions I raised, todos I noted, or things I said I'd follow up on — pulled out so they
don't get lost.
- One or two connections you notice between notes ("your note on X relates to Y").
Keep it tight and skimmable. Read only — don't edit or create notes. If I barely captured anything this
week, say so in one line.Weekly notes review — week of 30 Jun 2026 This week centered on the pricing revamp and a recurring thread about onboarding friction. A few scattered product ideas and two unresolved questions. Key ideas • Move to 3 pricing tiers; annual discount at 20% • Onboarding: cut the second step, it's where drop-off spikes Open loops • ❓ "Do we grandfather existing users on old pricing?" — undecided • ☐ Follow up with Sam on the migration timeline Connection: your "activation metrics" note ties directly to the onboarding-friction thread.
Notes pile up all week and most never get a second look. This routine reviews everything you captured in Mem each Friday and emails a synthesis — the threads, the keepers, and the open loops — so the week's thinking turns into something you can actually act on.
How it works
- It uses Mem to search the week's notes and pull out themes, ideas, and open loops.
- One synthesis lands in your inbox every Friday, ready for a five-minute review.
- It's read-only — the routine reads your notes, it never edits or creates them.
Make it yours
- Change the cadence to daily or biweekly, or run it Monday to plan from last week's loose ends.
- Focus it on one collection or topic instead of everything.
- Have it also list just the open todos as a checklist at the end.
