FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete meetings from my calendar?

    No. The AI can only read and parse your calendar data. It cannot modify, delete, or add any events.

  • 02

    Does the AI see my private notes in the calendar?

    The AI processes the data provided in the iCal feed. If your notes are part of that feed, the AI will read them to provide context.

  • 03

    Can I ask for a weekly report every Monday?

    No. The AI performs the analysis when you ask it to. You have to trigger the request manually each time.

  • 04

    Will this work with Google Calendar?

    Yes, as long as you can provide an iCal link for your Google Calendar.

  • 05

    Can the AI send meeting invites for me?

    No. This tool is strictly for reading and analyzing existing calendar data.
