Inbox automation that sends without you is how you get a polite wrong answer at scale.
Aside. The robot does not get your badge. Your manager still reads the email with your name on it.
Three safe moves
- Summarize a long thread: decision, owners, dates mentioned
- Draft from your bullets
- Label (if your client allows): needs me / waiting / FYI
Packet
Summarize this thread for me.
List: decision needed, who owes what, dates that appear in the text.
Then draft a reply I can edit.
Do not add meetings, discounts, or apologies I did not authorize.
