Sends upcoming calendar events by DM to a specific user

Get your calendar events delivered straight to your DMs seamlessly.

  • Execute the task periodically
  • Get the next upcoming event (gcalendar → alert_events)
  • Send a direct message (DM) (twitter → post_dm)

Missing or forgetting upcoming meetings and deadlines from your calendar creates stress, last-minute scrambling, and lost trust with clients or colleagues. Manually checking schedules or sending reminders eats up valuable time and mental bandwidth—especially when you need to keep specific users in the loop, every single hour. Without automation, there's a constant risk of things falling through the cracks or important updates going unseen, hurting both your visibility and reliability.

This Botize formula solves the headache by automatically scanning your Google Calendar every hour and sending a personal direct message (DM) via X (Twitter) to your target user for every upcoming event. No more digging through calendars or forgetting to ping someone—event summaries, times, and direct links are delivered automatically and discreetly, giving everyone timely heads-ups. You stay organized and responsive while your communication feels proactive, seamless, and highly professional.

Ready to make missed reminders a thing of the past? Setting this up with Botize is quick—you can control how often messages go out, tailor which calendars or users receive updates, and fine-tune filters as needed. Just follow the step-by-step below to get started, or use the ready-made formula for instant results that keep your team—or your clients—in the know and on track.
