**AI Email Writing**
**Overview**
Email consumes roughly 28% of a knowledge worker's week. AI email assistants draft, reply, summarize, and prioritize messages, significantly reclaiming productivity.
**Common Use Cases**
**1. Generating Drafts**
Speed up outbound sales or cold outreach.
- *Prompt*: "Draft a polite follow-up email to a client who hasn't responded to the proposal sent last Tuesday. Emphasize we can start immediately."
**2. Reply Suggestions**
Smart Replies (Gmail) or detailed responses.
- *Prompt*: "Reply to this complaint. Apologize for the delay, offer a 20% discount code, and explain we had a server outage."
**3. Tone Adjustment**
- *Prompt*: "Rewrite this angry email to sound professional and diplomatic."
- Input: "This is broken and I hate it." → Output: "We are currently experiencing significant issues with the functionality."
**Tools**
- **Gmail/Outlook Copilot**: Built-in AI features.
- **Superhuman**: AI-powered email client (Split inbox, snippets).
- **Lavender / Warmer.ai**: Sales-focused personalized intros.
**Best Practices**
1. **The "Human Sandwich"**: Start with a human line, let AI write the body, end with a human sign-off.
2. **Review Facts**: AI will confidently invent dates or meeting times. Always verify.
3. **Prompt for Length**: "Keep it under 3 sentences." (Long emails get ignored).
AI doesn't replace the relationship; it handles the administrative overhead of maintaining it.
