You shouldn't have to ask to knowwhere your clients stand.

Your clients email six different people. You find out one is waiting when they call the owner.

Client work used to slip once in a while. Now it slips every week, and the client notices first.

Standups, spreadsheets and the CRMall depend on someone remembering.

  • Ask each rep in standupIt's from memory, and you become the bottleneck.
  • A coordinator with a spreadsheetStale by noon, and it leaves when they do.
  • The CRMIt shows what someone typed, not what the client asked.
  • ChatGPT or CopilotIt answers when someone asks. Your problem is what nobody asked about.
  • Hire another personIt adds another inbox with the same blind spot.

Give every rep an assistantthat keeps track of who's waiting.

  • It flags the client emails that need an answer.
  • It keeps one list of the replies each rep owes and the ones they're waiting on.
  • Ask what was promised on last week's calls. It pulls the action items from the call summaries, by account.
  • Ask where every account stands. It answers from the team's real mail, with the email behind every line.

Which email providers does alfred_ support?

Gmail (including Google Workspace), Outlook (including Microsoft 365) and any inbox that supports IMAP. Gmail and Outlook connect when you sign in with Google or Microsoft, so alfred_ never sees your password.

How does alfred_ decide what needs me?

It reads each new email with the thread around it and asks whether someone is waiting on you. If they are, the thread goes on your Needs you list, longest wait first. Newsletters, receipts and notifications stay off it.

Can I connect more than one email account?

Yes, up to six Gmail, Outlook and IMAP accounts. alfred_ reads them together, so everything that needs you is on one list.

Does alfred_ send email on my behalf?

Only when you tell it to. Email goes out when you send it, when you ask alfred_ to send one, or from a rule you set up, like forwarding receipts to your accountant.

Can I still use Gmail or Outlook?

Yes. alfred_ works alongside your inbox, not instead of it. Reply in Gmail or Outlook as you always do and the thread comes off your list.

Can I set rules for my email?

Yes. Say it in a sentence, like "anything from Stripe goes in Receipts," and it runs on every new email. Ask again to change a rule or turn it off.

What access does alfred_ need?

Permission to read your mail and to send the email you ask it to. You can remove it anytime from your Google or Microsoft account. alfred_ completed a CASA Tier 2 security assessment for Google's review.
