Events without attendees are ignored.\n\n**Step 2 \u2014 Info Extraction:** Attendee name and company are extracted from the event data for use in downstream searches.\n\n**Step 3 \u2014 Parallel Web Research:** Two simultaneous Google searches (via SerpAPI) run in parallel \u2014 one for the attendee's personal profile and one for their company. Each set of results is parsed and cleaned by a dedicated JavaScript node.\n\n**Step 4 \u2014 AI Briefing Generation:** Both search result sets are merged and fed into an Azure OpenAI agent, which summarises the person's background and company profile into a concise meeting brief.\n\n**Step 5 \u2014 Slack Delivery:** The briefing is formatted into a readable Slack message and sent as a direct message so you are prepared before the meeting starts.\n\n### Setup steps\n1. Connect **Google Calendar** OAuth2 credentials and set your calendar ID.\n2. Add your **SerpAPI** key to both search nodes.\n3. Connect **Azure OpenAI** credentials (deployment: `gpt-4o-mini`).\n4. Connect **Slack** OAuth2 and replace `YOUR_SLACK_USER_ID` with your real Slack member ID.\n5. Customise the Extract node to pull the correct attendee name and company fields from your calendar events.\n\n### Customization\n- Extend the AI prompt to include talking points or recent news about the company.\n- Add a LinkedIn search query in a third parallel SerpAPI branch for richer profiles."
