How alfred_ works
Connect your email and calendar. alfred_ handles the rest overnight. Wake up to a Daily Brief with decisions, not a list of 50 unread messages.
From inbox chaos to Daily Brief, in four steps
Connect Your Accounts

alfred_ Works Overnight
Every night, alfred_ triages your inbox, categorizing emails by urgency, client, and type. It drafts replies, extracts action items, and analyzes your calendar for the day ahead.
- Auto-triage: every email categorized (urgent, FYI, action needed, low priority)
- Draft replies generated matching your tone and context
- Tasks extracted from emails and added to your board
- Calendar analyzed: conflicts flagged, focus time calculated, meeting load scored
