Describe your email workflow — what you triage, what you draft repeatedly, what you follow up on — and we'll build the automation spec.

Some of your emails are irreplaceable. Most are not. BYOBot identifies which is which, drafts the ones that follow a pattern you have written a hundred times before, and keeps the ones that need your voice exactly where they belong: in your hands.

How it works
Copy your unread emails into Claude or ChatGPT with a BYOBot email triage prompt, and get back a categorized list with draft responses for the pattern-based messages and a short note for the ones that need your judgment. Works with any email client that can copy text — no integrations required.
Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any LLM — free to startA browser agent that opens Gmail or Outlook, reads the inbox, applies your triage rules, drafts the standard responses, and logs email activity to your CRM — without any copy-paste. You review the queue, approve the sends, and the agent handles the production. For SDRs and EAs running high email volume, this replaces hours of manual drafting and logging per day.
Works with Gmail, Outlook, Superhuman, Salesforce, HubSpot, and any web-based email or CRM toolAn API-driven pipeline that monitors your inbox, applies categorization and routing rules, generates drafts or sends responses within defined parameters, logs activity to your CRM, and escalates exceptions to a human reviewer. For teams handling high-volume inbound (support, sales, partnerships), this is the architecture that scales email processing without scaling headcount.

A chat answer dies in the thread. Your agent is a file you own: run it in ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, drop it into a browser agent, or hand it to your stack — as many times as you like.
No prompt engineering degree required. Describe what you do, the types of emails you handle, your tone, your patterns, and BYOBot turns that into the spec.
Every build ships with smoke tests and pass, warn, and fail checks for each step. You'll know it ran right, not just that it ran.
The math
Knowledge workers spend an average of 28% of the workday managing email, according to McKinsey research. For roles with high email volume — SDRs running outreach sequences, EAs managing executive correspondence, CS managers handling account communications, support teams triaging inbound — the number is significantly higher. Most of that time is not spent on messages that require original thought. It is spent on messages that follow patterns the sender has already established: the follow-up, the meeting request confirmation, the status update, the handoff note, the CRM log. BYOBot automates the pattern-based production work and keeps the judgment calls where they belong. First build free. Five more for $25.

Who uses email automation
What you get
The most important thing about email automation is not how fast it can draft a message. It is how accurately it identifies which messages need a human and which ones do not. A follow-up to a prospect who went quiet three days ago does not need creative judgment — it needs a coherent, professional message that fits your established tone and references the prior thread. That is a pattern. A response to an upset client who just escalated their account requires exactly the opposite. Email automation is useful only when it makes this distinction reliably.
BYOBot maps your email handling logic into an agent that knows your categories, your tone rules, your follow-up cadences, your CRM logging requirements, and your escalation criteria. The agent applies that logic consistently at scale. What you get back is a queue of reviewed drafts — not a set of sent messages — and a short list of messages that need your direct attention. The human approval step is built into the workflow by default; the agent never sends without permission unless you explicitly configure autonomous sends for a defined email type you are comfortable with.
The CRM logging benefit deserves its own mention: every email that touches a prospect or client relationship should be logged as an activity record. Most are not, because logging requires navigating to the contact record, creating an activity, and copying over the relevant details. When this step is manual and unprompted, it gets skipped. Automated email-to-CRM logging makes it a side effect of the email workflow rather than a separate task.
