Dunedin businesses don't need another generic AI pitch. AI email triage only earns its keep when it's built around the workflow you actually run on a wet Tuesday, and that's how we scope every engagement we take on in Otago.
Otago · Applied AI
AI email triage that lives in your stack, not on a vendor's roadmap. Shipped from Otago.
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

How we build AI email triage for a Dunedin team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Dunedin business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI inbox manager.

Questions
FAQ
How quickly can we see something running?
Week three for a clickable internal demo against real data. Week six for a slice your team can actually use. We hold ourselves to those numbers because they're what stops a project drifting into "endless discovery".
Is AI email triage worth it for a smaller Dunedin?
Often, yes – and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
What's the realistic outcome for Dunedin 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.
What tools do you build AI email triage on?
For AI email triage we usually reach for Claude, Gmail API, Microsoft Graph, Vercel. We're tool-agnostic at heart – we pick what your Dunedin team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
