Interacting with Prism

Whether you’re looking to reschedule a meeting, find the perfect spot to fit in a Focus Time hold, or spinning up a new Scheduling Link to send out in an email exchange, Clockwise’s Prism can help – and take the time and stress out of setting everything up for you.

What type of tasks can Prism make easier for me?

• Basic scheduling: Schedule, reschedule, and cancel one-time or recurring meetings via conversational chat.
• Bulk scheduling: The ability for a user to take action on multiple meetings at once (includes scheduling, rescheduling, other updates).
• Fix conflicts: Users can ask Prism to help them fix their meeting conflicts, and Prism will highlight the conflicts in the calendar and provide smart rescheduling suggestions
• Create Scheduling Links: Create Scheduling Links via chat. Streamline the scheduling process by having Prism generate links on your behalf. Quickly share custom Scheduling Links.

Engage with Prism

Working with Prism is a lot like working with an assistant – it’s quick, understands conversational language, and can make a lot of connections you’ll no longer need to keep track of yourself. You can find a list of prompts here, but here’s a few to get started:

• Schedule a 30 min sync on Thursday or Friday with Gary.
• Set up a recurring 1:1 with Abou every other week on Tuesday.
• Make me OOO tomorrow afternoon and reschedule my afternoon meetings.
• Fix my conflicts next week
• Create a 15 minute link with my and Nikita’’s availability on Tuesday and Thursday

If you’re not sure what Prism can help you with we’ve made it easy for you to get started. You can directly ask it for help or scheduling advice.

• Try How should I use you? Or Which meetings should I mark as flexible?

Pair prompts together 

You can push several commands together, as you would when speaking with someone.

For example, you can ask Prism to Reschedule my meeting with Jin tomorrow and schedule a meeting with Kacy tomorrow, or Cancel my meetings tomorrow and schedule a 1 hour hold to review the board deck.

Use the calendar view

Prism lives side-by-side with an overview of your calendar.

If you prefer to perform changes visually rather than by chat first, you can initiate a rescheduling flow by clicking on any event in the calendar. This will open an abbreviated event detail view where you can either use Quick Reschedule to choose an optimized time, or else click Find more times to launch Prism for more assistance and visibility.

Make a calendar change

When you want to make a direct calendar change using a prompt, you’ll collaborate with Prism. You’ll prompt what you want to happen, Prism will respond with a proposal to you detailing what its actions will be if you approve of them, and then you confirm whether you’d like those changes to happen. If you confirm, the changes will happen within the minute, and if you select cancel, no changes will occur around what you prompted.

If you’re unsure what seems the most convenient of the times offered by Prism, you can collaborate with folks by sharing the times that would work best for all all Clockwise users – this will share all the times that Prism uncovered as workable for the collaborators who have not responded no to the event RSVP. Click Share, then Share all available times to create a comprehensive scheduling proposal that you can then share in a chat message or email.
