Your calendar knows the what. Evergreen knows the who.
Your calendar tells you what is happening at 2pm and who is invited. It does not tell you that the person you are about to talk to mentioned a job change last time, or that you still owe them an answer on something, or that this is the third call with them this quarter and you should probably know that going in. The calendar has the schedule. It has none of the history.
So you either scroll back through old emails five minutes before the call, or you just wing it and hope the context comes back to you mid-conversation.
Evergreen's meeting prep view answers the question directly: who am I about to talk to, and what do I already know about them? It reads today's calendar events and matches each attendee to your Evergreen contacts by email address, so the moment you open the app you see your day laid out against the people on it -- not a separate step, not a manual lookup before every call.
For every attendee Evergreen recognizes, you get more than confirmation that you have met before -- you get their notes, their tags, and their interaction history, right there against the meeting. Walk into a call already knowing what was discussed last time, what you owe them, and anything you have logged about how the relationship is going. It turns "who is this again" into a non-issue.
Just as useful is what happens when an attendee is not in Evergreen at all. Meeting prep surfaces unrecognized attendees as candidates worth adding, so your contact database grows out of the meetings you are actually having instead of a separate data-entry chore you never get around to. Every new working relationship starts with a record instead of starting from nothing.
For a meeting that matters -- a final interview, a pitch, a hard conversation -- open Evergreen's on-device chat panel and ask it to catch you up on the person before you join the call. It reads straight from their notes and interaction history and runs entirely on your Mac, so you get a real briefing instead of trying to reconstruct the relationship from memory in the sixty seconds before the call starts.
Matching attendees to contacts means Evergreen is reading your calendar, which makes where that data lives matter more, not less. Evergreen stores everything locally in a SQLite database on your Mac -- no account, no cloud sync, no telemetry. Your meeting history and the context behind it never leaves your machine.
