Scheduling Without a Human Calendar
Short summary
Instead of scheduling bots borrowing a person's calendar via OAuth, Nylas Agent Accounts let bots own their own dedicated mailbox and calendar identity. This eliminates delegation permissions, token expiration, and auth complexity—invitations appear from the agent's own address as standard iCalendar requests. Intent parsing still requires LLM work; free tier is capped at 200 messages/day.
- •Dedicated agent calendars replace OAuth-based calendar borrowing, eliminating permissions complexity and token expiration
- •Invitations appear from the agent's own address using standard iCalendar protocol, compatible with Google/Microsoft/Apple calendars
- •Trade-offs include LLM-required intent parsing and free-tier message quotas (200/day)
