AI Event Scheduler

What it does

AI Event Scheduler is a Chrome extension that simplifies creating Google Calendar events. By selecting text on a webpage and clicking a button, the extension leverages AI to generate detailed calendar events, saving time and boosting productivity.

Here’s how it works:

Select and Create: Users highlight text on a webpage that contains event details and choose "Create Google Calendar event" from the context menu.

Choose a Mode: Depending on the selected app mode—New Tab or .ical—the extension either:

New Tab Mode: Embeds the selected text into a prompt asking Gemini AI to extract event information. It then constructs a Google Calendar URL with pre-filled event details and opens a new tab, allowing users to review and save the event.

.ical Mode: Requests Gemini AI to generate an .ical file based on the events in the selected text. The extension then downloads the .ics file for easy import into any calendar application.

The extension uses Gemini's function-calling capabilities to request specific event details through two key functions:
get_event_information: Extracts the event title, start date, end date, location, and description.
generate_ical_file: Creates and names the .ical file with the extracted event details.
