Your own software-powered Virtuat assistant that sends pre-written replies to emails that you want off your plate quickly. Works with Gmail and Office 365.
This is clever and might help some busy people reply (vs. ignore) to more cold emails but perhaps it's better to be direct with people rather than working through a fake assistant. 🤔
@rrhoover This is something I've thought about quite a bit myself as well. I don't see this as purely a way to avoid being direct. There's an asymmetry in time spent sending vs. receiving email. The typical requests that we designed Virtuat for are send in bulk and/or automatically. This allows you to handle those quickly and effectively. The alias prevents the reply from opening up a thread (which is often the sole purpose of the original request).
Been using this since it was in closed beta and love it. Use it to schedule meetings, politely get rid of too excited sales people, or to answer to FAQ and to help people find the right people within my own organization.
