How do I connect Google Calendar?

Either authorise over OAuth, or share each calendar with a Rig service-account address as a viewer with full event details and list the calendar IDs. The share route avoids the consent screen entirely.

Are recurring events handled properly?

Yes. They are expanded into individual occurrences rather than counted once, which is what makes time analysis accurate.

Are cancelled events included?

Yes, deliberately. Cancellations are often the interesting signal, particularly on customer meetings.

Can I sync several calendars?

Yes. List the calendars you want and Rig syncs them together.

Google Calendar integration for Rig

The easiest way to connect Google Calendar to Claude and other AI tools

Google Calendar holds the meetings a team runs, which in practice is a record of where time and attention actually went.

What Rig syncs from Google Calendar

Once connected, Rig models these objects so questions resolve to the right tables and joins:

Calendar list
Events
Expanded recurring events
Cancellations
Attendees
Last-modified times

How Google Calendar connects to Rig

Connect with Google over OAuth, or share each calendar with a Rig service-account address and list the calendar IDs to pull. Rig syncs the calendar list and events from each calendar, expanding recurring events and including cancellations, incrementally on each event's last-modified time.

See where selling time actually goes

Pipeline reports say what stage a deal is in; calendars say how much time went into it. Joined to your CRM, meetings show which accounts absorb effort and whether that effort tracks with deal size.

Ask Rig

How many meetings does a closed-won deal typically take?
Which accounts consume the most meeting time relative to their value?
How much time does each rep spend in customer meetings?

Measure meeting load honestly

Recurring meetings are expanded rather than counted once, so the real load is visible. That makes it possible to quantify how much of the week is booked before anyone has done any work.

Ask Rig

How many hours a week does each team spend in internal meetings?
Which recurring meetings have the largest total cost in hours?
How has meeting load changed since the reorganisation?

Track cancellations and no-shows

Cancellations are kept rather than dropped, so patterns are visible: which meetings never happen, which accounts repeatedly reschedule, and where that correlates with deals stalling.

Ask Rig

Which customer meetings are cancelled most often?
Do accounts that reschedule repeatedly close less?
What share of booked demos actually happen?

Ask your Google Calendar data in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Rig serves your Google Calendar data to AI assistants over MCP. Once Google Calendar is synced into your warehouse, you can ask questions in plain English from the tool you already use, and every answer is backed by validated, governed SQL.
