Callie AI assistant overview
What is Callie?
Callie is an AI assistant for the work before and after meetings. Over email, Callie handles calendar coordination right from your inbox. Within Calendly, you can ask Callie questions via interactive chat to prepare for a meeting, recall past conversation details, or figure out what to do next.
For example, you can:
- Schedule meetings with a customer, prospect, or client directly from an email thread, or ask "When can we meet next week?" to find available times without searching for a scheduling link
- Ask Callie "What were the action items from my meeting with John?" or "Summarize my last three meetings with Hilary" to surface key takeaways and prepare for follow-ups
- Get briefed on your day with "Help me prepare for my meetings today" or ask "How many times have I met with the Acme Corp team?" to analyze relationship history
Callie supports natural-language questions and exploration. You don't need to follow a strict format. Clear, specific questions that reference people, timeframes, or outcomes tend to produce the best results.
