Email Automation

Marin's email automation helps you manage your inbox more efficiently. From drafting replies to searching through thousands of emails, Marin handles the heavy lifting so you can focus on what matters.

What Can Marin Do With Email?

Action	Example Request
Draft replies	"Draft a reply thanking them for the meeting"
Send emails	"Send a follow-up email to the team"
Search emails	"Find emails from John about the contract"
Summarize threads	"Give me a summary of this conversation"

Marin can draft emails for your review or send them directly, depending on your permission settings.

Drafting Replies

One of Marin's most useful features is automatically drafting email replies. Just forward an email to Marin or describe what you want to say, and it will craft a professional response.

Examples

Professional thank you:

"Draft a reply thanking Sarah for the proposal and saying we'll review it this week"

Scheduling response:

"Reply saying I'm available Tuesday afternoon or Thursday morning"

Decline politely:

"Draft a polite decline saying we're not taking on new projects right now"

Pro Tip

Add context about your communication style in Memories. For example: "I prefer a friendly but professional tone in business emails."

Searching Your Inbox

Can't find that important email? Ask Marin to search for it using natural language.

Examples

"Find the invoice from ABC Company"

"Show me emails about the project deadline"

"What did Lisa say about the budget?"

"Find all emails from last week with attachments"

Marin searches through your emails and returns the most relevant results, saving you time digging through folders.

Automatic Responses

For routine inquiries, Marin can automatically send responses without you needing to review each one.

Setting Up Auto-Responses

Go to your Permissions page
Find "Email - Send" permission
Set to "Auto" for specific types of emails

Use Carefully

Only enable automatic sending for routine, low-risk emails. Keep approval required for important communications.

Best Practices

Be Specific

The more context you provide, the better the draft:

✅ "Thank them for the meeting, mention we'll send the proposal by Friday, and ask about their timeline"
❌ "Reply to this"

Set Your Tone

Tell Marin how you want to sound:

"Keep it brief and professional"
"Be friendly and casual"
"Very formal, this is for a government client"

Review Before Sending

For important emails, always enable approval in your permissions. It takes just a second to review and ensures nothing goes out that shouldn't.
