Create research notes when meetings end in your research hub

Automatically monitor event ended details across Google Calendar and Dovetail. Create and update when meetings end, interviews finish, or recordings become availableβ€”so you can create research notes, attach recordings, and tag projects without manual note-taking.

How this automation accelerates your research notes

When interviews end and details scatter across calendars and inboxes, review slows and synthesis suffers. This automation monitors event ended signals and creates Dovetail notes and assigns projects and tagsβ€”so your team can capture insights right away.
