What it handles

  • Skipping newsletters and no-reply mail
  • Drafting replies to routine email, including email you forward by hand, addressed to the person who wrote
  • Emailing you at once when a message matches your urgent words
  • Finding past emails (on request)
  • Reminders on emails waiting for you (on request)
  • Your Monday report (a daily summary is on request)

What waits for your OK

  • Every reply to anyone outside your team
  • Anything about money to a client or customer
  • Forwarding email outside your business

What it never does

  • Promise a price, date or time you haven't set
  • Spend your money or agree to a charge
  • Pretend to be a person. If asked, it says it's an AI assistant
  • Guess. When it isn't sure, it hands the question to you
  • Delete email or unsubscribe you without asking

How businesses use it

Tenant, owner and vendor email piles up overnight.

Drafts the routine replies before you sit down.

Law office

Court and client email gets buried under newsletters.

Alerts you to court and client messages that match your urgent words, and skips newsletters.

Retail shop

Supplier confirmations eat your morning.

Drafts quick confirmations for your OK and flags anything about a late order.

How it works, step by stepTap to enlarge
Diagram of how the Inbox Manager works, step by step. 1, the customer: emails your business; 2, the agent: reads the new email (set during setup); 3, the agent: urgent, needs you, routine or junk? (on request); 4, the agent: drafts a reply to the routine email; 5, you: approve, edit or skip the draft; 6, the agent: sends the approved reply from the agent's address; 7, the agent: reminds you of email waiting on you (on request); 8, the agent: finds past emails when you ask (on request); 9, the agent: short daily summary for you (on request). Nothing sends without your OK.
When something is offTap to enlarge
Diagram of what the Inbox Manager does when something is off. Urgent email (court notice, leak, offer) (set during setup): emails you right away when the email matches the urgent words you choose during setup. About money, or only you can answer: drafts at most a holding reply. It is not sure what the email needs: drafts a reply that says the team will confirm, or leaves it to you. Newsletter, list or no-reply mail: skips it. Upset sender: drafts a calm, short reply for your OK. You forward one email to the agent by hand: drafts the answer to the person who first wrote, not back to you, and holds it for your OK like any other reply.

You never send passwords by email or chat. You enter any login your roles need on a secure page we email you. It goes straight to your own private setup; we never see it. Each role gets its own work account, with its own email and calendar seat, or you invite it the way you'd invite a new employee. You can remove it any time.

Questions

Which email does it work with?

Any business email that can forward to the agent's own address, which includes Gmail, Google Workspace and most others. Reading your inbox directly, and Outlook, are on request. Tell us what you use during setup and we'll tell you plainly what works.

Will it send email without me?

No. Every reply to a customer, client or vendor waits for your OK, one tap from your phone.

Can it read everything?

You choose exactly what it can see during setup. It never forwards anything outside your business without your OK.
