  • Looks up each outside guest For each outside attendee it checks the company site, their public LinkedIn page and recent news for their role and company.

  • Checks your Gmail It searches your Gmail for the last 3 threads with them and says what is still open or was promised.

  • Every fact has a source The brief states only facts it can link to, and it says so when it cannot tell who someone is.

Why use this?

Before each meeting, Minda reads the event, looks up each outside guest and your Gmail threads with them, and puts the result on one screen. It never writes to or messages anyone.

The full prompt

This is what the SI agent is asked to do. The parts in brackets are what you fill in.

Before each meeting on my calendar, brief me in one screen. Read the event: title, time, attendees, agenda and any linked doc. For each outside attendee, find their role and company from the company site, their public LinkedIn page and recent news; skip people from [my company's domain]. Search my Gmail for the last [3] threads with them and say what is open or was promised. Give: who they are, what changed recently, what they likely want, and [3] questions I should ask. Rules: only facts with a source link; if you can't confirm who someone is, say so instead of guessing; skip events titled [words to skip, e.g. Focus, Lunch]. Never write to or message anyone. Finish with the one thing I must not forget.

Who is it for?

  • Sales reps You meet prospects and customers and want their role, news and open email threads in front of you.

  • Founders with full calendars You go from one outside meeting to the next and have no time to read up on each guest.

  • People who meet outside guests You want to know who they are and what they likely want before you join.

Frequently asked questions

What does the brief include?

Who each outside attendee is, what changed recently, what they likely want and questions you should ask. It ends with the one thing you must not forget.

Where does it get its facts?

From the event itself, the company site, the person's public LinkedIn page, recent news and your Gmail threads with them. Every fact comes with a source link.

Does it contact anyone?

No. It never writes to or messages anyone. It only reads and then briefs you.

What if it cannot tell who someone is?

It says so instead of guessing. It only states facts that come with a source link.

Can I skip some meetings and people?

Yes. Fill in the words to skip, such as Focus or Lunch, and events with those words in the title get no brief. Your company's domain tells it which people to skip.

How do I start it?

Use this template in Minda's Tasks, fill in the two blanks and start it yourself. Saved as a workflow, it starts 15 minutes before each meeting.
