What does this automation do?
The full message is pulled, an agent drafts a reply in your house voice, and it waits as a task for a person to approve and send.
What can you do with it?
- Have the first draft written by the time you read the email
- Keep the wording specific to the message, not a saved template
- Leave the send decision with a person
The Steps
This automation runs in 4 steps:
- When Microsoft Outlook — New Email
- Then Microsoft Outlook — Get Email
- Then Taskade AI — Ask an agent ("Reply Writer")
- Then Taskade — Add Task
What makes this different from a Zapier-style flow?
The "Reply Writer" step is not a one-off model call. It is a Taskade AI agent that knows your tone of voice, pricing and standard objection answers, remembers which openers earned a reply and which were edited out, so every run builds on the last one instead of starting from an empty prompt.
A stateless "ask the model" step forgets everything the moment it returns. An agent keeps its knowledge and its memory between runs, carries its own tools, and can be handed work by other automations.
Who is this automation for?
Built for sales and success teams answering the same questions all week. The full message is pulled, an agent drafts a reply in your house voice, and it waits as a task for a person to approve and send.
