Build a Coda one-pager for each upcoming Outlook meeting

When an Outlook calendar event is within the prep window, an agent gathers the linked Coda docs and Attio CRM context, drafts a structured one-pager.

What it does

For every upcoming external meeting on your Outlook calendar, this workflow assembles a single ready-to-read prep page in Coda: who you're meeting, recent CRM activity, open deals, relevant docs, and three suggested talking points. You walk into the call already briefed.

When to use it

Use it if your team lives in Coda and Outlook but constantly scrambles to prep before customer or partner calls. Best for AEs, CS leads, and founders with back-to-back external meetings.

How it works

  1. 1An Outlook trigger fires when a calendar event enters the prep window (e.g. 18 hours out).
  2. 2A filter keeps only events with external attendees and skips internal syncs.
  3. 3The agent looks up each external attendee's company and person record in Attio for deal stage and recent notes.
  4. 4It searches Coda for docs whose titles or rows mention the company.
  5. 5OpenAI drafts a one-pager: attendee bios, account summary, open items, and talking points.
  6. 6The page is written into a Coda "Meeting Prep" doc and the Outlook event is updated with a link to it.
