About this agent

Meetings quietly consume a huge share of payroll cost, yet almost nobody tracks it since the math is tedious by hand. This AI agent calculates the true cost of every meeting and sends managers a weekly breakdown with async alternatives.

How this agent works

  • Pulls every meeting off the calendar

    It reads participants, duration, and organizer for each meeting on your team's calendars, checking first that it hasn't already logged that event.

  • Puts a real dollar figure on each meeting

    It looks up each participant's location and hourly rate, then multiplies rate by duration across everyone in the room to get the true cost.

  • Classifies and totals by meeting type

    Every meeting gets sorted as decision, status, brainstorm, one on one, or external, and recurring meetings get an annualized cumulative cost.

  • Surfaces the patterns worth acting on

    It flags the highest cost recurring meetings and identifies which types of meetings are quietly draining the most budget.

  • Delivers a Monday morning report

    Every Monday, each manager gets a Slack breakdown of last week's and next week's meeting costs, with suggestions to convert status meetings to async updates.
