Objectives

The goal was the development of an "AI Board of Directors Assistant" that digitally transforms the entire meeting cycle. mühlemann+popp supported HeyEla in creating a highly secure platform that:

  • Automatically records, transcribes, and converts meetings into structured minutes (agendas, decisions, actions).

  • Directly actionable workflows and tasks are generated from unstructured conversation data, which can be securely searched via AI in the future.

  • Enables efficient multi-board management (one login for all mandates).

  • Meets the highest Swiss security standards and guarantees absolute data sovereignty.

Implementation

m+p developed the platform with a consistent focus on “Security-First” and technological flexibility:

  • Model-Agnostic AI Architecture: Implementation of a structure that allows for the flexible use of the best available language models for transcription and analysis to always remain at the technological forefront.

  • Swiss Security Standards: Establishment of an architecture with end-to-end encryption and hosting exclusively in Switzerland to meet the requirements of banks and regulated institutions.

  • Seamless Workflow: Integration of digital signatures for finalizing minutes and connections to existing business tools (Teams, SharePoint, Google).

  • Intuitive Multi-Org-Experience: Development of a dashboard that allows professional board members to seamlessly switch between different organizations without losing track.

  • AI Model Fallback & Reliability: To ensure critical AI-supported processes are available at all times, m+p implemented a multi-stage fallback logic: if an AI model fails or is unreachable, the system automatically switches to an alternative model—without interruption for the user. This ensures that logging and analysis function reliably even in exceptional situations.

  • Modular Workflow Architecture with Evals & Schema Validation: The AI pipeline was deliberately divided into smaller, dedicated work sections—such as transcription, structuring, classification of decisions, and actions. Each stage has its own evaluation logic and schema validators that automatically check the result before it is passed on to the next step. This approach significantly increases output quality and enables targeted troubleshooting and optimization of individual components.

  • Human-in-the-Loop Error Correction: The user can actively intervene at the right points in the workflow: draft minutes can be viewed, edited, and commented on directly. Furthermore, the user can specifically trigger a new AI processing—provided with specific instructions and supplementary information. This controlled feedback loop ensures that human judgment is incorporated where it creates the most added value, without slowing down the overall automated process.
