Snippets are reusable email blocks you insert in seconds. Each can have its own shortcut, pre-set recipients, attachments, and AI variables that personalize content per recipient.

Creating a Snippet

Press n s from anywhere, or go to Settings > Snippets > New Snippet.
FieldRequiredDescription
NameYesLabel shown in the picker (e.g., “Intro follow-up”)
ShortcutYesUnique keyword to trigger insertion (e.g., intro)
SubjectNoPre-fills subject line on new compose
BodyYesEmail content with rich text, placeholders, AI variables
To / CCNoPre-set recipients that auto-populate
AttachmentsNoFiles included with every use (up to 24 MB each)

Inserting a Snippet

Press Cmd+Shift+S while composing to open the snippet picker. Search by name or shortcut, then select. The content inserts at your cursor, recipients populate To/CC, attachments attach, and subject pre-fills if empty. You can also type the shortcut keyword directly in the composer — Slashy offers to expand it.

AI Variables

AI variables embed a prompt inside a snippet. When inserted, the AI generates personalized content based on the recipient, thread history, and your memories.
1

Open the snippet editor

Press n s or edit an existing snippet in Settings > Snippets.
2

Add an AI variable

Click the AI icon in the snippet body editor. A prompt field appears.
3

Write your prompt

Describe what the AI should generate. Examples:
  • “Personalize a greeting based on our previous conversations”
  • “Write a one-sentence summary of why I’m reaching out”
  • “Generate a relevant icebreaker based on the recipient’s company”
4

Use the snippet

Insert with Cmd+Shift+S. The AI variable generates automatically based on the recipient context. Edit the output before sending.
AI variables are perfect for outreach at scale — your snippet provides the structure, and the AI personalizes each email based on what it knows about the recipient.

Pre-Set Recipients & Attachments

Add default To/CC recipients for templates where the same people are always included (e.g., weekly updates that CC your team lead). Recipients are added to existing fields, not replaced, and duplicates are auto-deduplicated. Attached files are stored with the snippet and included every time it’s used.
