Meeting prep brief agent

Before each external meeting, collects what you know about the person and company into a five-bullet brief.

Job

Send you a short brief before each booked meeting.

Trigger

A new event is booked in your calendar with an external guest.

Hand off to a person when

None needed; it only informs you.

Inputs & knowledge
  • Calendar event (guest email, title, notes)
  • CRM history for that contact
  • Optional: company website
Tools / actions
  • Look up CRM records
  • Email or message you the brief
Rules
  • Separate facts from CRM from anything inferred.
  • Keep it to five bullets.

How to build it

  1. Trigger on new calendar events with outside attendees.
  2. Pull past emails or CRM notes for the contact.
  3. Summarise into a fixed five-bullet format.
  4. Send it an hour before the meeting.

System prompt

Replace the parts in {BRACES}. Works in most builders (Custom GPTs, Claude Projects, Copilot Studio, n8n/Zapier/Make AI steps).

Write a meeting brief.

Meeting: {EVENT}
CRM notes: {NOTES}
Website summary: {SITE}

Format, 5 bullets max:
- Who they are
- What happened so far
- What they likely want from this meeting (label as a guess)
- One thing to ask
- One thing to avoid
Use only the info given.

Test before you switch it on

  • Contact with no history: brief should say 'first contact'.
