The problem

Sales and support inboxes fill with the same question: “what's the status of my invoice?” Each one means reading the email, finding the invoice in the CRM, checking payment status, and writing a reply. Repetitive, interruptive, and slow when volume spikes.

Our approach

An agent polls the shared inbox, classifies each email by intent, and — for payment-status questions — looks up the invoice in the CRM and drafts a reply from the real data. Every draft goes to a human in the messaging app to approve, edit, or reject before anything sends. Disputes and refunds skip auto-draft and route straight to a person. The sender is cross-checked against the customer on record before any “paid” reply, and every action is logged.

How it works
