The Bot fwd2cal Adds Events to Your Calendar Automatically. Just Forward It an Email


When you get an email suggesting you meet up with somebody, put this free bot to work. Fwd2cal uses ChatGPT to parse the information in the email and adds an event to your calendar.

That's the idea behind Fwd2cal, a currently free project by Moe Adham that can parse any email with an appointment in it and automatically add it to your calendar. If you get an email with a potential calendar appointment in it—a party invitation, a meeting, a coworker casually mentioning you can join them for drinks after work today—you can forward it to the free bot. “I wrote it because I was really frustrated managing many different email addresses on different platforms into a single calendar,” Adham writes on the project’s website.
