Creating a new template

In this section, you'll learn:

  • How to navigate to the Templates section

  • Creating a new template from scratch or using our library

  • Understanding the difference between regular text and instruction text (white vs. blue background)

  • How Marloo interprets your instructions

When creating templates in Marloo, it's important to understand the distinction between regular text and instruction text:

  • White background text: Represents section headers and structure

  • Blue background text: Contains specific instructions for Marloo on how to capture and format information

For example, in the risk tolerance section, blue text like "Note specific examples or quotes demonstrating my client's risk tolerance" tells Marloo to include direct client quotations whenever risk tolerance is mentioned.

Customising your template structure

This section covers:

  • Adding detailed instructions to guide Marloo's note-taking

  • Including examples to demonstrate your preferred format

  • How to use sub-bullets and hierarchical structures in your templates

Marloo can learn from the examples you provide. By showing the structure you prefer (like parent-child relationships in family composition details), Marloo will follow similar patterns when taking notes during actual meetings.

Tailoring templates to your workflow

Here you'll discover:

  • How to delete sections that aren't relevant to your practice

  • Combining or separating sections based on your preferences

  • Creating a template structure that matches your note-taking style

Templates are completely customisable to fit your unique workflow. You can remove sections you don't need, combine related topics, or reorganise content to match how you naturally take notes during client meetings.

Applying templates to meetings

Learn how to:

  • Save your customised template

  • Access your templates from the meetings interface

  • Apply a template to a meeting transcript

  • View the structured summary based on your template

Once your template is created, you can apply it to any meeting transcript. Simply navigate to the meeting, go to the summary tab, and select your preferred template. Marloo will structure the meeting information according to the template you've designed.

Advanced template features

Discover advanced capabilities:

  • Creating email drafts automatically from meeting content

  • Extracting action items and next steps in your preferred format

  • Generating follow-up communications based on meeting highlights

  • Using templates to create preliminary advice documents

Many advisers are using Marloo's templates to streamline their post-meeting workflow by automatically generating follow-up emails and even preliminary statements of advice directly from meeting transcripts.
