# Meeting Briefs

> Get AI-generated context before meetings with external guests.

Meeting Briefs means you walk into every external meeting prepared. Before a calendar event with external guests, Inbox Zero sends you a briefing that combines attendee details with your email and meeting history, plus web research.

Meetings with only internal attendees are skipped; people on your email domain count as internal.

## Set Up Meeting Briefs

### Connect a Calendar

Open **Meeting Briefs** in the left sidebar. If no calendar is connected, follow the prompt to connect Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook Calendar. You can also manage calendar connections from **Calendars**.

### Enable the Feature

Turn on **Enable Meeting Briefs**.

### Choose the Timing

Set how long before each meeting the briefing should be generated. The default is four hours.

### Choose Delivery Channels

Email delivery is enabled by default. You can also deliver briefs to any supported account connected on the **Channels** page:

* Slack
* Microsoft Teams
* Telegram

Slack can deliver to a direct message or an allowed private channel. You can enable more than one delivery channel at the same time.

## Briefing Content

A briefing can include:

* Attendee names, email addresses, and relevant background
* Recent email history with each external guest
* Past and upcoming meetings involving the same people
* Web research and professional context
* Internal team members who are also attending
* Meeting time, location, and joining details

The **Integrations** setting on the Meeting Briefs page can connect additional tools to enrich the briefing.

## Upcoming Meetings and Tests

The **Upcoming Meetings** section lists calendar events that Inbox Zero can see. Choose **Send test brief** to generate a sample immediately for a selected event.

Use **View send history** to inspect recent attempts.
