New in June: four things you asked us to build

The four things we shipped in June came almost entirely from your feedback: preferences your assistant remembers for good, scheduled tasks you can set up over email, sender-level control, and a home for the newsletters you never get to.

Team DeckAI Email Assistant

Almost everything we shipped in June came out of user feedback. Sometimes it was a reply that ended with "can it also do this," and sometimes a small piece of friction that came up enough times that we went and fixed it. Four of those landed last month, and they pull in the same direction: less time telling your assistant the same thing twice, and less time in a dashboard setting things up by hand.

Tell it your preferences once, and they stick

You've probably told your assistant the same thing more than once: keep the brief to three bullets, skip the recap you never read, use a warmer tone on client replies than on internal ones. Now you say it once and it stays said.

Tell Deck what you like and what you'd rather not see, in plain language, and it keeps that preference going forward. Ask for three-bullet briefs and the next one comes back in three bullets. Say a certain kind of summary isn't useful and you stop getting it. You're no longer re-explaining yourself every Monday to get work that looks the way you want.

That memory builds up the longer you use it. How your assistant actually works walks through the way it gathers context about you over time.

Set up a scheduled task without opening the dashboard

Building a scheduled task used to mean opening the dashboard and filling out a form. Now you can just ask. Tell Deck in a chat that you want a Friday wrap-up of everything still open, or email that same instruction to its address, and it builds the task for you.

Changing one that's already running works the same way. Tell it to move the wrap-up to Monday, or to add the week ahead from your calendar, and it updates the schedule in place. There's no form to fill out and nothing to hunt for in a settings page.

Point a task at the exact people who matter

A scheduled task that reads from your inbox is only as good as the mail it looks at. Now you can name the exact senders it should watch. Point a weekly update at just your top clients, or a personal one at just your family, and it leaves everything else alone.

A realtor can build a digest that tracks only her active buyers and their lenders. A lawyer can follow just the two matters headed for filing this month. You get back only the threads you named, and none of the noise around them.

A home for the newsletters you never get to

The newsletters you meant to keep up with are probably sitting unread right now. Your assistant has its own email address, so you can subscribe it in your place. Sign it up for the ones you actually care about, and it works through what arrives and folds the parts worth knowing into your briefings.

Because those newsletters go to its address and not yours, none of this touches your inbox. Deck only ever reads what lands in its own.

Frequently asked

Questions we got.

Do I need to rebuild the scheduled tasks I already set up?

No. Everything you've already set up keeps running. If you want to change one, tell Deck what to adjust and it updates that task in place.

Does subscribing my assistant to a newsletter give it access to my inbox?

No. Your assistant has its own email address, and the newsletters go there. It reads what lands in its own inbox, never yours.

How do I set a preference?

Say it in plain language, the way you'd tell a colleague. "Keep my briefs to three bullets." "Stop sending me the weekend recap." Deck holds onto it from then on, so you're not repeating it every week.

Where does what Deck remembers live?
