Inbox-zero coach | Assista automation
Inbox-zero coach
Run this in Assista in under a minute. Edit the prompt, plug in your tools, your teammate handles the rest.
The promptReady to run
Daily 4pm reminder of what's still in your inbox and why each thing is there.
Tweak the prompt before hiring — Assista does the rest. Use this template →
Built for teams that still use the word "production"
Approvals
Risky things stop and ask.
Spend caps, send-email gates, and one-click approvals in Slack or email — risk gets a human; routine just runs.
Audit
Every action, logged.
Inputs, outputs, tool calls, costs — streamed to your SIEM via webhook. The black-box agent era is over.
OAuth
Scoped per teammate.
Each integration is OAuth-secured and pinned to the smallest possible scope. No blanket admin tokens.
Budget
Caps that pause, not surprise.
Per-team monthly cap. Per-task ceiling. Anomaly detection. Spend stays exactly where you put it.
How it works
From template to running teammate in under a minute.
01
Edit the prompt
The template ships with the prompt pre-written. Change a phrase, swap a tool, and you're ready.
02
Hire a teammate
One click — the template becomes a teammate with a name, schedule, and approval boundaries.
03
Review the first run
First run is dry-run by default. Approve it, and the teammate runs on the schedule from then on.
