Meetings

How does Uplevel capture Meetings?

Meetings are a core aspect of teamwork. The standard workweek contains several hours of meetings, so understanding their purpose and duration is key to optimizing your time.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What if I'm double-booked?

Uplevel makes an educated guess about which meeting was attended. This is typically the meeting with more attendees. If a person has responded "Yes" to one meeting and "Tentative" to the other, we will count the former. Our algorithm also takes into account double-booked meetings of different durations. If the "Yes" meeting is 30 minutes and the "Tentative" meeting is 60 minutes, we will count the initial meeting, plus the second half of that next meeting.

What if I'm invited to a meeting but declined the invitation?

Declined meeting invitations are excluded from Uplevel insights.

What if I'm invited to a meeting, but respond "tentative"? What if I don't respond at all?

In most cases, Uplevel will count a "tentative" response as an attendance. In the case of office hours or a company social event, a tentative response will not be recorded as an attendance.

What if I'm on vacation?

Any meeting that occurs during an out of office period (“OOO” or “out of office” on a calendar) is excluded.

What if someone includes me as an “invitee” on their vacation event, as a reminder?
If there are multiple people listed as attendees for a vacation event, we assume the organizer is OOO, and treat it as a non-meeting for everyone else.
