Canterbury · Applied AI

For Ashburton operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.

The version of AI email triage that works for a Ashburton business is rarely the version a national vendor would sell you. We build the one that fits how your team actually operates – usually with fewer parts than the off-the-shelf pitch.

What AI email triage actually does

Inbox gets the AI treatment – drafts replies, files quotes, escalates the urgent, and snoozes the noise. Your team starts the day at zero, not 200 unread.

  • 01 Drafts replies in your tone, ready to send
  • 02 Auto-files attachments to the right job folder
  • 03 Detects complaints and pings the right person
  • 04 Weekly digest of what was handled while you slept

Built on: Claude Gmail API Microsoft Graph Vercel

Questions

FAQ

When does AI email triage actually pay back?

Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a Ashburton – so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.

Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?

Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call – fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.

What's the realistic outcome for Ashburton businesses?

Inbox time cut from 2 hours/day to under 30 minutes. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.

Will this run on our own infrastructure?

Yes, where it makes sense. AI email triage can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Gmail API, Microsoft Graph, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
