## Prompt

Write a polite 2-3 sentence reply declining a 30-minute meeting invite and proposing to handle it over email instead.

## Response

Here are a few polished options you can copy/paste to politely decline the meeting and redirect it to email.

## Option 1 - Professional and versatile
Thank you so much for the invite. I'm unable to carve out 30 minutes this week, but I'm happy to handle this asynchronously — could you send over the details via email and I'll get back to you promptly?

## Option 2 - Friendly and brief
Thanks for thinking of me! I have to decline the 30-minute call to protect my schedule, but please feel free to email me what you need and we can sort it out there.

## Option 3 - More formal
Thank you for inviting me to meet. My schedule doesn't allow for a 30-minute meeting right now, but I would be glad to review and respond over email if you could share an agenda or your questions in writing.

Would you like me to tailor one of these to a specific person or context?
