AI email agent for onboarding

How AI email agents help onboarding

Use AI email agents for customer onboarding, checklist reminders, and implementation coordination.

• Programmable inboxes with thread-aware replies
• Webhook delivery for inbound email events
• Attachment handling for files and claim-check patterns
• Directory and trust controls for cross-agent communication

High-value tasks to automate

• Send onboarding steps and reminders.
• Collect missing documents or setup information.
• Escalate blockers to the right team member.
• Summarize customer progress across the thread.

Workflow design

Here is a practical starting point for onboarding teams building email-native automation.

1. A new customer thread is created.
2. Agent sends the first onboarding checklist.
3. Replies trigger document collection or escalations.
4. Completion and next steps are sent automatically.

client.send_mail(
    to="team@example.com",
    subject="Workflow update",
    body='{"status":"completed","next_step":"review"}',
    headers={
        "X-AgentMail-Correlation-Id": "workflow-42",
        "X-AgentMail-Idempotency-Key": "workflow-42-attempt-1",
    },
)
