How Timelier Reminder Emails Work

Timelier monitors your connected calendar and sends reminder emails to you and/or your guests automatically based on flexible rules you define. Here are two real-world examples in action.

Example: 1-Day and 15-Minute Reminders for Zoom Calls

This rule monitors an Outlook calendar for appointments that have “Sally” in the subject and a Zoom meeting link in the description. (These are customizable examples—your rule can match any keywords or patterns you use in your events).

  • Dual-Cadence Email Dispatch: Automatically triggers two email reminders from Sally's Outlook address to attendees: the first sent 1 day before and the second 15 minutes before the meeting.
  • Smart Attendee Filtering: Configure which guests receive the reminder based on invitation response status—email accepted attendees or those who haven't responded yet, while skipping anyone who declined.
  • Instant Zoom Link Access: Automatically includes the direct Zoom join link in the message body so invitees can jump straight into the call on time.

Example: Reminders for Early Microsoft Teams Meetings

John needs extra help remembering when he has early morning Teams meetings. This rule monitors his Google Calendar for events that start before 9:00 AM and contain a Microsoft Teams link in the event details.

  • Evening Prior & Morning Nudge: Sends John one reminder email 12 hours before the meeting (giving him a heads-up the night before) and another 15 minutes before start time.
  • Time-of-Day Conditions: Demonstrates how Timelier filters not just by keywords, but also by event start time (e.g. only matching early morning appointments).
  • Fast One-Click Join: Includes the Microsoft Teams meeting link directly in the reminder notification so John can connect instantly when getting ready in the morning.
