File under “one to watch” when it comes to cutting-edge apps. Tempo.ai is part of a new wave of “smart calendars” that help you run your life more efficiently.
The app integrates contacts, email messages, directions, and more into a seamless “context aware” interface. The calendar is designed specifically for business people who deal with lots of meetings and presentations.
Here are some examples of what Tempo.ai can do:
- Send a pre-populated “running late” email or text
- Dial into conference calls — Tempo handles the passcode
- Get directions, parking, and estimated driving time
- Review emails that pertain to the meeting
- Open related documents
- Quickly reach attendees via phone, email or text
- Wish people happy birthday on Facebook
- Find exact location even without an address
- Browse attendees’ LinkedIn profiles
- Connect to Foursquare and Yelp
- Know your flight status
