Meetings, Call Briefs & CRM
AutoReach integrates with Calendly and Cal.com to detect when leads book meetings, and generates AI-powered call briefs to prepare you for every conversation.
When to Set This Up
Set up meeting tracking early — ideally during onboarding — even if you don't think you need it yet. Two reasons:
Without a webhook, AutoReach can't know when a lead books. It will still send your booking link in messages, and leads will still book meetings, but those bookings don't get marked in your pipeline automatically. You end up tracking meetings in your head or in a spreadsheet.
Meeting status feeds back into the system. When a conversation reaches Meeting Booked, AutoReach extracts the winning exchanges as tone examples for future replies. Without webhook tracking, the AI doesn't learn from your wins.
If you don't have a paid Calendly plan, use Cal.com — it's free and webhook setup is one step. If you only have a custom booking URL, you can still inject it into messages via {{booking_link}}, but you'll need to track bookings manually.
Booking Integration
Supported Platforms
Calendly - requires a paid subscription for webhook support
Cal.com - free, no paid subscription required
Custom booking URLs - any scheduling page (no automatic tracking)
Calendar configuration is per-account. Open an account from the Accounts page and use the Calendar section. The form has two parts: (1) the booking page (provider + URL), and (2) meeting tracking (provider-specific webhook setup, surfaced once the booking page is saved).
Calendly Setup
Calendly webhooks require a paid Calendly plan (Standard, Teams, or Enterprise).
In the account's Calendar section, choose Calendly and add your booking URL
In Calendly, open the event's invitee form and add a required One Line question with the identifier shown in AutoReach - this is how bookings are matched back to a lead
Generate a Personal Access Token in Calendly API settings and paste it into AutoReach
Click Auto-fetch to populate your Organization URI (or paste it manually)
Click Register webhook - AutoReach creates the webhook for you via the Calendly API
Cal.com Setup
In the account's Calendar section, choose Cal.com and add your booking URL
In Cal.com, open the event's Advanced > Booking Questions and add a required custom field with the identifier shown in AutoReach - this is how bookings are matched back to a lead
Copy the webhook URL AutoReach generates
Paste it into Cal.com's webhook settings. Bookings are tracked automatically
Custom Booking URLs
You can use any booking URL without webhook integration. The {{booking_link}} variable still works for injecting your URL into messages, but AutoReach will not automatically detect bookings. You will need to update meeting status manually.
How Lead Matching Works
When a booking webhook fires, AutoReach matches the attendee to a lead using the tracking parameter embedded in your booking URL via the {{booking_link}} template variable, or by matching the attendee's email address.
What Happens When a Meeting Is Booked
When a lead is matched:
The lead's status is set to Meeting Booked
Any pending follow-up actions are cancelled
The meeting is recorded in the conversation thread
Meeting count is updated in sequence statistics
A winning tone example is auto-captured from the conversation
Using {{booking_link}} in Templates
{{booking_link}} in TemplatesThe {{booking_link}} template variable injects your calendar URL with lead-specific tracking:
This becomes a personalized booking link with the lead's identifier appended as a tracking parameter.

Chrome Extension CRM Pipeline
The AutoReach Chrome Extension brings your CRM pipeline into your browser. It works on LinkedIn and X, providing lead management, pipeline tracking, and account connectivity.
CRM Pipeline Stages
Leads move through a visual pipeline. The typical progression is New → Requested → Accepted → Contacted → Replied → Meeting → Won, but On Hold, Won, and Lost can be reached from any stage at any time.
New
Freshly added to AutoReach
On Hold
Temporarily paused
Requested
Connection request sent
Accepted
Connection request accepted
Contacted
Ongoing conversation started
Replied
Lead has engaged with your outreach
Meeting
Meeting booked
Won
Deal closed
Lost
Disqualified or no longer pursuing
Leads auto-progress through stages as sequence activity occurs. You can manually drag leads between stages to override.
Adding Leads
On LinkedIn profile pages, the extension injects an "Add to Leads" button. Lead addition is manual: you identify prospects and add them via the extension panel.
The extension is a CRM tool, not an automated lead generator. It does not scan feeds or match ICPs automatically.
Account Connection
The extension handles connecting your LinkedIn and X accounts to AutoReach. It connects your active browser sessions and detects the platform automatically based on the current page.
LinkedIn Connection Tracking
When you send a connection request through AutoReach, the extension tracks the connection status and supports auto-withdrawal. The lead moves to the Requested stage automatically.
