The Big Win

Match

From Manual Cross-Checking to Automated Attendance

A platform needed to verify session attendance: who showed up, whether they were on time, and if they stayed long enough. The process was entirely manual, with staff cross-referencing calendar bookings against call records user by user. Migrated the platform from calendar provider and built an automated matching system that cross-references meeting data with call records, calculating time overlaps, flagging late arrivals, and confirming attendance.

📊 Automated attendance matching ✅ Manual effort drastically reduced
