FAQ

Questions about Google Calendar + OpenAI.

How does GPT prep a Calendar meeting?
Calendar Event Starting Soon → fetch attendee CRM history → OpenAI Chat with "draft a 5-bullet brief on this person" → email or Notion-post the brief 30 min before the meeting.
Can OpenAI Whisper transcribe Calendar-linked meetings?
Yes. Calendar event ends + Zoom Recording Completed → Whisper transcribes audio → GPT-4 summarizes with decisions and action items → email recap to attendees.
How do I detect calendar conflicts with GPT?
New Calendar Event Created → fetch next week's events → GPT-4 analyzes for conflicts ("you have back-to-back meetings, no focus time on Thursday"). Slack DM the user with the assessment.
Can GPT auto-write Calendar event descriptions?
Yes. Event created with empty description → GPT generates a structured description (goal, attendees, agenda) → Calendar Update Event. Useful for hosts who create events on the fly.
How do I cost-control GPT on Calendar automation?
gpt-4o-mini for classification and short briefs (cheap). gpt-4o for nuanced rewrites or long summaries. Cap max_tokens. Skip internal recurring meetings to keep volume reasonable.
Can GPT suggest the best meeting time?
Yes. Pass GPT a JSON snapshot of next week's calendar + the new meeting requirements (duration, attendees). GPT returns 3 suggested slots ranked by attendee free time and time-zone fairness.
