How it works
What happens on each run, in plain English.
Whenever a new email arrives in your connected Gmail inbox, the AI reads it to work out who wrote it and which company they work for, using the signature block and the sending domain rather than a free mailbox address. Newsletters, receipts and vendor pitches come back with no company and the run stops there, so no research is spent on them.
For a real company, the web is researched for what it does, its headcount, revenue or funding, notable customers and anything in the last year that changes its ability to buy. The lead is then scored from 1 to 10 against who you sell to, weighing what the email actually asks for as heavily as the company's size. A score at or above your VIP bar becomes a Slack direct message naming the company, the score, the reason, an excerpt of the research and a link straight to the thread. Lower scores are only noted in the run, and an unreadable reply scores zero, so a bad AI response can never fire a false alert.
