Microsoft Outlook

Most calendar tools only handle the calendar. Outlook is different, since your schedule and your inbox live in the same account, and Quin connects to both at once. Quin joins and preps meetings the same way it would through any calendar integration, and adds a second layer on top for the inbox: replies drafted in a voice that sounds like you, built from your sent history.

What you can do with Microsoft Outlook and Quin

• Have Quin join meetings from your Outlook Calendar without adding it each time.
  It works the same way as any calendar integration, using whatever video link is attached to the invite.
• Get email replies drafted in your voice.
  They're built from your sent folder and the history of past threads, waiting in your Outlook drafts for review.
• Get relevant context before a meeting starts.
  It's pulled from past conversations, notes, and CRM details about who's attending.
• Let people book time with you directly onto your Outlook Calendar.
  A Quin scheduling link adds the meeting to your calendar the moment it's confirmed.
• Get a follow-up drafted when an email goes unanswered or a meeting wraps up.
  A thread doesn't go quiet just because it slipped down the inbox.
• Get today's schedule and inbox summarized each morning.
  It's one brief instead of two separate checks before the day starts.

Who this helps most

• Anyone whose calendar and inbox both run through Microsoft 365, so one connection covers meetings and email instead of needing two separate integrations.
• People who answer a high volume of email in a consistent voice, where drafting every reply from scratch is the slowest part of the day.
• Roles juggling back-to-back meetings with little prep time between them, since context arrives automatically instead of requiring a scramble beforehand.

How this shows up day to day

• A scheduling request comes in over email.
  Instead of checking the calendar and typing out available times, a request that used to take a few back-and-forth emails gets handled through a scheduling link.
• An inbox fills up faster than it can be answered.
  Replies draft themselves in your voice, based on your sent history, and wait in your drafts folder for a quick review before sending.
• The first meeting of the day is minutes away.
  A daily brief has already pulled together the schedule and the inbox, so there's no separate scramble to check both.

Frequently asked questions

Does this connect my calendar, my email, or both?
Both. Unlike calendar-only integrations, connecting Microsoft Outlook gives Quin access to your Outlook Calendar and Outlook Mail in a single setup.

Will Quin's email drafts sound like me?
Quin learns your writing style from emails you've already sent. If the integration is new, sending a few emails yourself first gives it more to learn from, and specific tone preferences can be added to your guidelines.

Does Quin join every meeting on my calendar?
Quin joins meetings that have a Teams, Zoom, or Google Meet link, as long as Notetaker is turned on. A meeting without a video link, like a phone call or an in-person visit, doesn't get joined the same way, though it can still be shared with Quin directly in chat.

Is my email and calendar data kept private and secure?
Yes. Quin is SOC 2 Type II certified and encrypts data in transit and at rest, the same security standard applied across every integration, not just Outlook.

Does Quin replace Outlook?
No. Outlook remains where your calendar and inbox live. Quin works alongside it, joining meetings and drafting replies instead of requiring a separate tool.
