## Never Walk Into a Meeting Blind

Delegate meeting prep to Lindy. Before every call, a briefing lands in your inbox or on your phone with who you're meeting, what you've discussed before, and what's on the agenda. You don't have to ask.

## How to Set It Up

Meeting prep is a built-in **routine**. On the **Routines** page, open the **Personal** tab, find the **Meeting prep** card ("Gives context on your meetings"), and toggle it on. Click the card to choose which meetings get prep, when you receive it, and its format.

## What's Included

| Section              | Details                                                                  |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Time**             | When the meeting is scheduled                                            |
| **Meeting name**     | The title and subject                                                    |
| **Attendees**        | List of all participants                                                 |
| **Attendee context** | For external attendees: job title, current company, and LinkedIn profile |
| **Past meetings**    | Summary of previous meetings with the same people (if recurring)         |

You can customize the prep format in your settings at [chat.lindy.ai](https://chat.lindy.ai). Look for **Meeting prep** in the settings panel. Describe your preferred structure, tone, and level of detail in the text field, and Lindy follows your instructions.

## Which Meetings Get Prep

* **All meetings**: every event on your calendar
* **External meetings only**: skip internal team syncs, focus on client and prospect meetings

## When You Receive Prep

<Note>
  To adjust these settings, go to the **Routines** page, open the **Personal** tab, and click the **Meeting prep** card. Set the time in the **Timing** field.

</div>

* **Daily digest**: receive all meeting prep at a set time each day (e.g., 5:00 AM)
* **Before each meeting**: receive prep a set number of minutes before the meeting starts (e.g., 15 minutes before)

You can enable one or both.

## How You Receive Prep

* **Email**: lands in your inbox
* **SMS / iMessage**: sent directly to your phone

<Note>
  To change how you're notified, go to the **Routines** page, open the **Personal** tab, and click the **Meeting prep** card. Pick where prep lands in the **Delivery channel** field.

## Customize Your Prep Format

You can write a custom prompt to control exactly how your meeting prep is written — including the tone, structure, and level of detail.
