Adds meeting costs, policy, and invite validation to Google Calendar. Company configuration available through Flowtrace paid plans. Meetings are investments. Flowtrace helps Google Calendar users see the time and financial impact of meetings before they are sent. The Flowtrace Meeting Cost extension adds real-time meeting cost estimates, meeting policy reminders, and optional invite validation directly into Google Calendar. Organizers can make better scheduling decisions while creating or editing invites, instead of discovering meeting waste later in a meeting dashboard. Use it as a free meeting cost calculator for Google Calendar, or connect it to the Flowtrace meeting analytics and calendar analytics platform for company-wide configuration, meeting policy automation, and organization-level insights.

The Google Calendar extension and Outlook add-in are part of the wider Flowtrace Meeting Analytics platform, helping teams connect real-time scheduling behaviour with organization-level meeting analytics and meeting culture transformation. BUILT FOR BETTER MEETING CULTURE Flowtrace helps teams move beyond passive reporting.

Users can sign in with Google, while organizations can deploy the extension centrally with managed configuration. Premium features require a Flowtrace subscription and administrator setup. Flowtrace focuses on calendar and meeting metadata needed for cost estimates, policy checks, and analytics. It is not a meeting recorder, transcription tool, or note-taking extension.
