Short answer

How can I use AI to triage my support emails?

Your AI uses AgentMail to pull recent email threads and read the full context of each conversation. It then drafts replies based on the history so you can review and send them. This keeps your inbox organized and your response times low.

Where every issue lands.

The outcomes of automated triage.

Your AI sorts incoming messages into these specific categories.

AUTO

Ready to send

The AI drafts a complete response based on the conversation history. You just check the draft and hit send.

HUMAN

Needs your eyes

Complex or sensitive issues are flagged for you. The AI identifies these cases so you don't miss them.

FAQ

How the triage task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI send emails by itself?

    No. The AI drafts the replies, but you retain full control over when a message is actually sent.

  • 02

    Does the AI delete old emails?

    No. The AI can only list, read, reply, or update messages. It cannot delete anything from your inbox.

  • 03

    Can it handle attachments?

    The AI reads the text within the conversation history to understand context, but it does not download or process files.

  • 04

    Will it mess up my existing threads?

    No. The AI only interacts with the threads you specifically ask it to read or reply to.

  • 05

    How does it know which emails are urgent?

    It relies on the conversation history and your specific instructions to identify which threads require your immediate attention.
