What is Emailgistics AI?

Emailgistics AI is a set of AI tools built into Emailgistics, the shared inbox add-in for Outlook. AI summaries condense long email threads, and AI suggested replies draft responses from the AI knowledge base your admins set up for each mailbox. It runs only when someone asks, and a person reviews and sends every reply.

  1. The AI Tools section of the Emailgistics add-in with a two-point summary of an email thread

    1. Read

Catch up on long threads in seconds

When an email is reassigned, or a customer has written five times, nobody should have to scroll back through the whole conversation. Select Summarize in the add-in and get the key points of the thread:

  • Faster handoffs when an email changes owners
  • Quicker triage of long or complex conversations
  • Less time reading, more time replying

Suggested replies from your AI knowledge base

Admins add your organization’s documents, such as policies, FAQs and reply templates, to an AI knowledge base for each shared mailbox. When someone selects Suggested Reply, Emailgistics AI searches those documents and drafts a reply:

  • Each mailbox has its own, separate AI knowledge base
  • Every suggestion shows the source it was drafted from
  • New hires answer like your most experienced agents

Update or delete documents at any time, and replies follow your latest content.

Admins decide who uses AI

Emailgistics AI is off until you turn it on. From the Emailgistics admin portal you can:

  • Turn AI features on or off for your organization
  • Choose which users can use them
  • Manage the documents in each mailbox’s knowledge base

AI never sends email on its own. A suggested reply goes into the reply only when someone chooses it, and they can edit it before sending.

AI built for shared mailbox teams

Emailgistics AI is scoped to reading and drafting, and it works alongside the assignment, SLA and reporting your team already relies on.

Runs in Outlook
Inside Outlook

Summaries and suggested replies appear in the Emailgistics add-in beside the email, so there is no separate AI tool to open.

On request
Runs only when asked

AI reads a message only when someone selects Summarize or Suggested Reply, never in the background.

No model training
Never used for training

Your prompts, emails and documents are never used to train AI models, by Emailgistics or by any of its AI providers.

AI knowledge base per mailbox
Separate per mailbox

Each shared mailbox has its own AI knowledge base, so a billing reply never draws on another team’s documents.

Encryption and limits
Encrypted and rate limited

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and usage limits by organization, user and mailbox help prevent any misuse.

Works with your workflow
Part of your workflow

AI speeds up the reply. Assignment, SLA alerts and reporting keep ownership and timing on track around it.

AI summaries, AI suggested replies, the AI knowledge base and AI access controls are included in the Pro and Enterprise plans.

No. AI only drafts. A suggested reply goes into the reply when someone chooses it, and they can edit it before they send it themselves.

No. Your prompts, emails and AI knowledge base documents are not used to train AI models, by Emailgistics or by its AI providers.

Read about Emailgistics security

AI summaries use Microsoft Azure AI Foundry and are processed in the United States. AI suggested replies use Google’s Gemini API, which processes requests on Google’s global infrastructure. Emailgistics does not store email content, but providers may keep prompts for a short time to monitor for abuse.

Read the AI security overview

Not by default. The Emailgistics platform supports HIPAA-regulated customers, but the AI features are not suitable for protected health information (PHI) or payment card (PCI) data unless an Enterprise customer arranges a specific configuration and contract with us. AI knowledge base documents should contain general policies, FAQs and templates, not sensitive customer data.

Copilot is a general Microsoft 365 assistant for individual productivity across apps. Emailgistics AI is built for shared mailbox teams: suggested replies draw on each mailbox’s AI knowledge base, and AI works alongside assignment, SLA alerts and reporting. Many teams use both.

Compare Emailgistics AI and Copilot

Your admins. They turn AI features on or off for the organization, choose which users can use them, and add, update or delete the documents in each mailbox’s AI knowledge base for each mailbox.
