# Prepare meeting briefs and triage the inbox

In a two-day, 10-task business test, a reviewer scored Dots 9/10 on meeting prep, but a promised visual deliverable was unfinished. Inbox triage scored 7.5/10: priorities were sensible, but it treated an already-resolved issue as still open.

## What they did

The founder of the review site AI Agents Library tested a dot over two days on her own business accounts, with Gmail, Calendar, Drive and other tools connected. She asked it to prepare her for a real editorial planning meeting from her connected context, and to review seven days of email, work out what still needed a reply or action, and take no inbox actions itself.

## How it went

Tested by the press Meeting prep scored 9/10: the information was strong, and after she asked for visuals it switched to cards with open items marked "to confirm", though a promised one-page visual was still unfinished when she checked. Inbox triage scored 7.5/10, with sensible, scannable priorities.

## Good to know

Triage treated an issue she had already fixed elsewhere as still urgent, because nothing told it the work was done, so inbox output still needs a human check. Scores are one reviewer's judgment over two days.

## A prompt to try

I have a meeting about <topic> with <attendees> on <date>. Using my email, calendar and docs, give me a one-page brief: background, decisions already made, open questions, and anything still to confirm, as short cards with links to the source. Then review the last seven days of my inbox and list what still needs a reply, but check whether I already answered before you flag anything, and do not send or archive messages.
