The first hour of most days disappears into email that never needed you: receipts, notifications, questions with known answers, and threads that need one short reply.
Your Squad teammate works the inbox before you open it. Give it access to the shared inbox, or forward a stream to its own address. Allow and block lists control exactly which senders it may answer, and a daily send cap bounds the worst case.
It answers from sources it can cite: your docs, your past replies, the squad's Company and Contacts files. What it cannot source, it never invents. Those messages become your flag list instead.
Grant the shared inbox from Email settings, or use the teammate's own address. Set the allow list, the block list, and the daily cap before the first run.
Point it at your FAQ and docs. Fill the squad's Company file with the facts every reply needs: hours, policies, links. The teammate reads that file at the start of every run.
Routine messages get replies in your voice. Noise gets archived. Anything angry, legal, or new lands on the flag list with a one-line summary.
One morning brief, in the dashboard or straight to your Telegram. Each flagged thread has the context and a suggested reply.
Reply to a flag in chat and the teammate sends it as a proper email, threaded correctly, from the right address.
Every correction goes to memory. The sender you always want to see personally stays on the flag list forever. Watch any run live from the teammate's profile if you want to see the sausage made.
Good morning. 31 overnight messages: 24 answered, 4 archived, 3 need you. 1. Marcus @ Delta Freight — contract question I cannot source. Draft attached; he sounds ready to renew. 2. Chargeback notice from Stripe — filed under disputes, evidence is due Friday. 3. A journalist asking about the Series A rumor. No draft; this one is all yours.
Your teammate connects through the integrations you approve, works on its own computer with its own browser, and asks you before anything irreversible.
You grant the inbox, set the allow list and the daily cap.
The first 7:00 run answers 18 routine messages. You read every reply it sent. They hold up.
Two corrections so far, both remembered. The flag list is your whole inbox now — usually 3 to 5 threads.
You open email twice a day, on purpose. The brief finds you; the noise does not.
