Meet Lindsay — Educator, Leader, and Now… Fieldy Power User
Lindsay is a head of department in a mainstream school in the UK, responsible for a specialist unit for autistic students. Her job requires multitasking on a constant flow — shuttling from meetings with parents and professionals, navigating impromptu conversations and keeping a list of never-ending tasks, without the benefit of administrative staff to take notes or record minutes.
“I have to process far too much information on a daily basis, and it was impractical to write it all down.”
Before Fieldy, Lindsay was at a loss. Crucial information from conversations fell through the cracks, follow-ups on meetings were missed, and the mental load of trying to manage it all was intolerable.
The Challenge: Too Much to Remember, Not Enough Time to Record It
Lindsay kept losing critical information, deprived of admin support and an opportunity to scribble things down while on the call. When she attempted to talk, listen, and write simultaneously, she had gaps in key details of what was happening, and stress at remembering everything.
“I forgot a lot of information and tasks, which was incredibly frustrating.”
The Discovery: A Facebook Ad That Delivered
Lindsay discovered Fieldy when she saw an ad on Facebook. She was skeptical at first, but she did her research. Although reviews were scarce, the engaged support community and direct participation from Fieldy’s team made it easier to trust. The deciding factor? Fieldy doesn’t keep recordings, which is a must in her learning environment where privacy and safeguarding are paramount.
Putting Fieldy to Work: Daily Support in a Demanding Role
Now Lindsay puts on her Fieldy most workdays. Her subscription plan has her running it all day, mainly capturing and reviewing key conversations, meetings, and follow‐ups. The AI-generated summaries are very accurate, and when she needs to find something in particular, she uses the transcript search function. Fieldy’s reminder tool is another favorite tool to keep her on top of things without mental debris.
“The reminders are fantastic. They help me keep track of all the tasks I’ve committed to, without needing to write everything down.”
The Results: Less Stress, More Efficiency, Better Follow-Through
Since incorporating Fieldy into her routine, Lindsay has noticed a dramatic improvement in her productivity and peace of mind. She’s saving time, capturing more accurate meeting notes, and easily staying on top of tasks. The bonus? Her colleagues have noticed, too.
“They’ve commented on the detail in my notes and that I’m getting things done ahead of schedule. I’m remembering more, and it shows.”
Favorite Feature: Custom Summaries That Fit the Moment
Fieldy’s transcript summaries are striking to Lindsay — not just for their fidelity to the original, but for their economy. By tweaking the summary template to fit the conversational context, she generates more relevant, focused recaps that make the information more memorable and transferable to new situations.
“Being able to set the context and get summaries that reflect that? It’s brilliant.”
Would She Recommend Fieldy? Without a Doubt.
Lindsay says she would wholeheartedly recommend Fieldy to anyone who has to absorb and act on spoken information, but especially to professionals in high-stakes situations who can’t afford missed details but don’t want to have just a traditional notepad handy.
“It’s perfect for anyone who needs to remember conversations, follow through on tasks, and do it all without a notebook or diary.”
