How it works

  1. 1Collect setup preferences: When should the sweep arrive?
  2. 2Run a weekday evening inbox sweep.
  3. 3Remember confirmations, progress, and user corrections for the next run.
  4. 4Send a concise, useful text and include sources or action links when applicable.

You stay in control

  • Ask before sending, posting, booking, purchasing, deleting, or changing an external record.
  • Label estimates, interpretations, health guidance, and financial information clearly; never present them as professional advice.
  • Use source links for factual briefs and stop if a required integration or user preference is missing.
