Using Email

Read, search, reply, and send emails through Chalie.

Reading email

Chalie reads and summarises emails for you. Ask about individual messages or groups:

  • “Do I have any unread emails?”
  • “What does the latest email from Alex say?”
  • “Summarise the thread with the legal team.”
  • “Read me the most recent email from noreply@amazon.com.”

Chalie gives you the key information — sender, subject, and a plain-language summary — rather than dumping the raw HTML at you.

Searching your inbox

Natural language search works across all your mail:

  • “Find emails about the conference in June.”
  • “Do I have any unread messages from clients?”
  • “Show me emails I haven’t replied to from last week.”
  • “Any emails with attachments from finance?”
  • “Show me emails from my boss from this week.”

Replying and forwarding

Chalie can draft and send replies on your behalf. It shows you what it’s about to send and asks for confirmation before anything goes out.

  • “Reply to Mark’s email and say I’ll call him tomorrow morning.”
  • “Forward the invoice from Acme to our accountant.”
  • “Reply to Sarah’s last message and let her know I’m running 10 minutes late.”

Chalie handles threading automatically — you don’t need to copy message IDs or worry about reply chains.

Sending new emails

Compose and send fresh emails:

  • “Send an email to jamie@example.com and let her know the package shipped.”
  • “Email my team and ask if anyone can cover Friday’s shift.”

Chalie confirms the recipient, subject, and body before sending.

Drafting without sending

Want to review a message before it goes out? Ask Chalie to draft it instead:

  • “Draft an email to the board summarising last quarter’s results.”
  • “Save a draft to marketing about the campaign launch.”

The draft lands in your Drafts folder so you can edit or send it from your regular email client.

Managing messages

Take action on emails without leaving the conversation:

  • “Delete that last email from the mailing list.”
  • “Mark it as read.”
  • “Mark that invoice email as important.”
  • “Move the promotional email to spam.”
