How It Works
AI analyzes it
Reads content, tone, and whether you asked a question, made a request, or set a deadline.
Enabling Auto-Reminders
Off by default. Turn on in Settings (Cmd+,) > Account > Auto-reminders toggle. Only applies to future sent emails — not retroactive.
What Gets a Reminder
The AI creates reminders when your email:- Asks a question expecting an answer
- Makes a request or asks someone to do something
- Proposes a meeting, deadline, or next step
- Sends information requiring confirmation
What Gets Skipped
| Category | Why |
|---|---|
| No-reply addresses | Will never get a response |
| Newsletters | Replies aren’t expected |
| Auto-replies | Out-of-office messages don’t need follow-up |
| Thank-you notes | Simple acknowledgments don’t expect a reply |
| System notifications | Receipts and confirmations |
Wait Time Selection
- 1-2 days — urgent requests, short deadlines
- 3-5 days — standard business requests, scheduling
- 7-14 days — low-urgency, informational, cold outreach
Auto vs. Manual Reminders
