My Day

This feature is in beta. If you are interested in using My Day feature, please send an email to help@obvious.ai.

My Day is your daily starting point in Obvious. Open it to see what's on your calendar, what needs a decision, and where your agents are waiting on you, all in one place.

Click My Day in the left sidebar to open it.

Your daily briefing

Obvious generates a briefing three times a day (morning, midday, and evening) based on your connected calendar, email, and active threads. It tells you what to expect from the day and flags anything that needs your attention.

If nothing needs your attention, the briefing shows a clear message to that effect. Each briefing updates automatically at the next scheduled time.

To generate a fresh briefing immediately, click the refresh icon in the top right of the briefing area.

See what's on your calendar

Your calendar events for the day appear in chronological order. Each event shows the meeting title, time, and attendees. Hover over any meeting card to see a quick summary. The popover shows the full time range, description, attendees with their RSVP status, and location when available. A Join Meeting button appears in the popover when the meeting has a video link. When a meeting is about to start or is already in progress, a Join button also appears directly on the card.

If two events overlap, a conflict indicator appears so you can see the clash before it becomes a problem.

You'll need a connected Google Calendar or Outlook account to see your calendar here. If you have not connected one yet, you'll see a prompt to do so.

In the evening, you'll also see a preview of tomorrow's schedule.

Act on decisions

Quick Decisions shows you the items that need a response today: calendar conflicts, emails, pending tasks, and agent threads waiting on your input. Each item has action buttons so you can respond directly without leaving My Day.

Click the checkmark on any card to dismiss it once you've handled it. Use the arrows to page through if you have more than two items waiting.

Check flagged emails

If you have a connected email account, flagged emails that need your attention appear here. Connect an email account in Settings if you do not see this section.

Pick up where you left off

Jump Back In shows your most recently active threads so you can quickly return to work in progress. This only appears when you're viewing today.

See what your agents need

Open Threads shows threads where an agent is waiting for your input before it can continue. Click any thread to go straight to it.

Manage your tasks

Your tasks appear here, including ones assigned to you or your assistant. Completed and cancelled tasks are hidden.

Note: To-dos is in beta. Contact help@obvious.ai to enable it.

Browse other days

Use the arrow buttons at the top to move between days. You can also use the left and right arrow keys on your keyboard.

When you view a past or future date, only your calendar is shown. Decisions, threads, and tasks are only available for today.
