Everything you need to know about alfred_'s features, integrations, and account management.

What is alfred_?

alfred_ is your AI executive assistant. It handles your email automatically, triaging your inbox while you sleep, drafting replies you can send with one tap, and extracting tasks from messages. You wake up to a Daily Brief of what needs your brain, not a list of chores. You approve what matters. alfred_ does the rest.

Who is alfred_ designed for?

alfred_ is designed for professionals who need leverage: consultants, founders, freelancers, and anyone whose time is too valuable to spend on email coordination. If you're drowning in email and can't justify hiring an executive assistant, alfred_ handles that work for $24.99/month.

How do I get started?

Create an account, then connect your email (Gmail or Outlook) and calendar (Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar). Once connected, alfred_ immediately starts triaging your inbox, drafting replies, and extracting tasks. Your first Daily Brief arrives within 24 hours.

What integrations are supported?

alfred_ integrates with Gmail, Outlook (Microsoft 365), Google Calendar, and Outlook Calendar. You can connect one or multiple accounts of each type. We use OAuth authentication, so we never see your passwords.

Is there a free trial?

alfred_ offers a trial period when you sign up. Check the pricing page for current trial length and subscription options. You can cancel anytime from your account settings.

What does alfred_ do with my email?

alfred_ triages your inbox automatically, reading every message, classifying by urgency and importance, and flagging what needs your attention. It drafts replies you can send with one tap, extracts tasks and deadlines, and archives noise. You see 10-15 emails that need your brain, not 100+ that don't.

How does alfred_ prioritize emails?

alfred_ scores every email based on: urgency keywords, action-required language, sender importance (VIP status, executive titles), follow-up count from the same sender, and email age. Revenue-critical messages and follow-ups get escalated. Newsletters and noise get archived.

How does alfred_ track follow-ups?

alfred_ monitors every thread for response status. When someone follows up, alfred_ flags it with increasing urgency: first follow-up, second follow-up, third-plus. You see exactly which threads are waiting on you before they become problems.

How does alfred_ draft replies?

alfred_ drafts responses automatically based on email content and your communication patterns. Drafts appear ready for you to review, edit, and send with one tap. alfred_ never sends without your approval. You stay in control of your voice.

Can alfred_ send emails automatically?

Currently, all sending requires your approval. You review and tap to send. We may introduce optional auto-send for routine replies in future versions, but you will always control this setting.

What does alfred_ do with my calendar?

alfred_ analyzes your schedule automatically, calculating meeting load, identifying conflicts, and scoring each day's "health" (0-100) based on focus time vs. meeting time. Before every meeting, alfred_ prepares a context brief with relevant emails, notes, and action items.

How does alfred_ calculate focus time?

alfred_ identifies gaps between meetings and calculates realistic focus time: short gaps between meetings don't count because context-switching makes them unproductive. Your Daily Brief shows actual available focus time, not just "free" calendar slots.

Can alfred_ schedule meetings for me?

alfred_ analyzes your availability and suggests optimal meeting times. Creating calendar events or sending scheduling emails requires your approval. You review suggestions and confirm before any changes are made.

Before every meeting, alfred_ automatically pulls context from recent emails with attendees, related notes, and open action items. You walk in prepared without scrambling to remember the last conversation.

How does alfred_ extract tasks from emails?

alfred_ scans every email automatically for action items: commitments you've made, deadlines mentioned, requests from others. Tasks are created and linked to the source email. No manual entry required.

What if alfred_ extracts something that isn't a real task?

Dismiss any extracted task with one click. alfred_ learns from dismissals and improves over time. It gets better at distinguishing real commitments from casual language.

How does alfred_ track overdue tasks?

alfred_ monitors how long tasks stay on your list. Tasks older than 7 days are flagged as "stale." Tasks overdue by 3+ days are marked "critical" and escalated in your Daily Brief with prompts like "This task has been on your list for 8 days. What's blocking you?"

Can I create tasks manually?

Yes. Create tasks directly in the todo widget. Manual tasks work exactly like auto-extracted ones: they appear in your dashboard, can have due dates, and are tracked for procrastination patterns.

Are tasks linked to emails and meetings?

Yes. Tasks extracted from emails link back to the source email. Tasks can also link to calendar events and notes: full context, one view.

What is the Daily Brief?

The Daily Brief is what alfred_ prepares for you every morning, automatically. It contains: emails that need your judgment (already triaged and prioritized), draft replies ready to send with one tap, tasks due today or overdue, your calendar with meeting prep notes, and any patterns alfred_ has noticed (procrastinated tasks, scheduling conflicts, follow-ups waiting).

When does alfred_ prepare the Daily Brief?

alfred_ prepares your Daily Brief overnight based on your timezone, so it's ready when you start your day. You wake up to decisions, not 100 emails. You can also request a refreshed brief anytime.

What can I do from the Daily Brief?

The Daily Brief is designed for quick action. Send drafted replies with one tap, dismiss or create tasks, view full email threads, see calendar context. Review and approve. alfred_ handles the execution.

How does alfred_ generate the intelligence briefing?

alfred_ synthesizes information from your email, calendar, and tasks into natural language summaries. The briefing highlights what needs your attention, flags concerns, and suggests priorities, so you focus on decisions, not data processing.
