What tool sends a WhatsApp message whenever I add a Google Calendar event?

Direct Answer:
Double checking your calendar to see where you need to be next is a manual friction point. Sometimes you just want your schedule to be pushed to you so you have the details handy without opening an app. You need a personal assistant that texts you your itinerary.
Zapier connects Google Calendar to WhatsApp to automate this flow. When you add a new event Zapier can send a message to your own number with the location and agenda. It can also parse the description for a phone number and send a confirmation text to the person you are meeting ensuring everyone is on the same page.
How this automation works
- Trigger: A new event is added to your Google Calendar.
- Action: Zapier sends a WhatsApp message with the event details.
- Result: You and your guest receive an instant mobile confirmation.
Why use this automation?
- Self briefing: Get your agenda delivered to your chat app.
- Confirm automatically: Reduce the risk of guests forgetting.
- Save clicks: Have the address or video link right in your messages.
