How to send a Google Calendar reminder to your guests (not just yourself)

Here's what trips people up: Google Calendar's notifications remind you, the organizer — not the people you're meeting with. Each attendee only gets a reminder if they added one to their own copy of the event. So the built-in reminders don't help you make sure the other person shows up.

The fix is to email the guest directly the day before — a short "see you tomorrow?" note. You can do it by hand each time, but it's the task that slips on a busy day.

Rather than remember to do this every time, CalConfirm sends the reminder automatically — for any meeting on your Google Calendar, a personal note goes to your guests 24 hours ahead, from your own Gmail. It closes the exact gap Calendar leaves: the other person actually gets nudged, in your voice.
