Draft replies with Caddy
Reply to Maya that Tuesday afternoon works and ask if 3 pm is okay.
I drafted a concise reply.
To: maya@example.com Subject: Re: Meeting time Hi Maya, Tuesday afternoon works for me. Would 3 pm be okay? Best, Connor Want me to send it?
The problem
Most replies require thread context, tone, timing, and calendar awareness, which makes quick responses slower than they should be.
How Caddy helps
- Use the original email thread as context.
- Adapt to your preferred tone and level of detail.
- Draft replies and ask for approval before sending.
Why Caddy is different
Caddy lives in Messages, so the workflow starts where you already text. It can text first when something matters, use connected tools when you allow it, and ask for approval before sensitive actions like sending email or changing calendar details.
What the workflow looks like
- 1
Ask Caddy to reply to a specific thread or sender.
- 2
Caddy drafts a response using available context.
- 3
Review, edit, or approve the draft from Messages.
Texts to try
- “Reply to Maya that Tuesday afternoon works”
- “Send an email to Jess with the gist of our branding proposal”
- “Answer Rajiv that I can do Thursday after 2 and ask if Zoom works”
