What it won’t do without you

Use it on the web, on your iPhone, by text message, or inside Claude and ChatGPT. It’s the same assistant everywhere, working from the same accounts. On a team, every person gets their own alfred_, and their mail stays theirs unless they choose to share it.

Start with one task

Connect your email

Sign in with Gmail or Outlook, then ask alfred_ to find a recent thread with a client. See Connect your tools.
Set up texting

Save your mobile number, then text alfred_ first. That first text confirms the number; no code is sent. See Text messages.
See what you owe

See the replies you owe, and ask who still owes you one. See Follow-up tracking.

What it won’t do without you

alfred_ only sees the accounts you connect, and only with the permissions you grant when you connect them.

Send an email or a calendar invite you asked for. You see it first and approve it, on the web or by text. The exceptions are things you set up yourself, like a rule that forwards mail; see Drafts and approvals.
Clean up your mail in bulk. A sweep by sender or search, or more than 25 emails, shows you a count first. Low-priority mail it files on its own goes to Archive, and anything you ask it to delete goes to Trash, so it can be brought back.
Share your mail with a teammate. Sharing with your team’s account coordinators is something you say yes to, and every action is logged. See Sharing & permissions.
