Executive Travel Itinerary Compilation
A done-for-you everyday business automation built for the Travel and Events Coordinator, connecting Twilio, Slack, and Google Calendar so the work below happens on its own.
What this automation does, step by step
When a flight, hotel, or car service is booked for an executive trip, the confirmation emails land automatically in a dedicated inbox that the workflow monitors around the clock, pulling out the relevant times, addresses, and confirmation numbers instead of the travel and events coordinator copying details by hand into a document.
Everything gets compiled into a single, chronological itinerary in Google Docs, complete with time zone conversions and a map link for each stop, and the finished itinerary is texted to the executive through Twilio the morning of departure along with a calendar invite for every leg of the trip.
Any flight delay or gate change picked up from the airline's notification triggers an instant Slack alert to the coordinator so a car service or meeting can be adjusted before the executive even lands.
Trip planning that used to take an hour of manual assembly now finishes itself.

Using different software? We build around what you already have, so you never have to switch tools to automate.
The manual way vs. the automated way
Without automation
The manual approach means a travel and events coordinator handles each case reactively, after someone has already noticed something went wrong. It rarely feels urgent in the moment, but it adds up fast.
With this automation
- Low-stock and reorder alerts before you run out
- Vendor and subcontractor confirmations that chase themselves
- Preventive maintenance scheduled by usage or date
- Work orders and project milestones that update stakeholders
