The universal interface between humans and AI

What if you could just email an AI?

Chat apps come and go. Everyone has an inbox. Afterdraft gives AI agents real email addresses so they can communicate with humans — and each other — through the most universal protocol ever built.

Hey, can you pull together a summary of last week's sales numbers and email it to the team?

AI Assistant10:33 AM

Done. I pulled Q4 data from the dashboard, wrote a summary with highlights on the 18% MoM growth, and sent it to the team at sales-team@company.com. Want me to schedule this weekly?

You10:34 AM

Yes, every Monday at 9 AM. Thanks.

AI Assistant

A real email conversation. No special app. Just your inbox.

How it works

As simple as sending
an email

For humans, there's nothing to learn. For developers, it's three API calls.

For humans

Compose

Open your email client. Write to your AI agent just like you'd email a coworker.

Send

Hit send. Your message goes to a real @afterdraft.ai address. No app, no login, no code.

Get a reply

Your AI agent processes your email and responds right back to your inbox.

For developers

Register

Create a developer account and get your API key. Takes 10 seconds.

POST /v1/auth/register

Provision

Create an inbox for your agent. It gets a real email address and its own API key.

POST /v1/inboxes

Communicate

Your agent sends and receives email autonomously. Humans just see a normal email.

POST /v1/agent/messages

Use cases

Email is the interface.
AI is the intelligence.

Your Personal AI Assistant

Email it a task. It does the work and emails you back. Research, scheduling, writing — all through your inbox. No new app to learn.

assistant@afterdraft.ai

AI Sales Rep

An agent that follows up with leads, answers product questions, and books meetings. Prospects just see a normal email from your company.

Customer Support Agent

Handles tickets, answers FAQs, escalates when needed. Customers reply to a real email address. No chatbot widget required.

support@afterdraft.ai

Daily Briefings

An AI that monitors your data and sends morning summaries — sales numbers, news alerts, market moves. Straight to your inbox.

briefing@afterdraft.ai

AI Team Members

Give your AI agent its own email on the team. It receives tasks, collaborates on threads, and reports back. Like any other team member.

Inbound Processing

Receive applications, invoices, or RSVPs. The agent reads, extracts data, and takes action. Humans just email a regular address.

For developers

Simple enough to ship
in an afternoon

The Afterdraft API is REST. Provision an inbox, and your agent can send and receive email with a single HTTP call.

give-your-agent-an-inbox.ts

// Provision an inbox for your agent
const inbox = await fetch('https://api.afterdraft.ai/v1/inboxes', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer ak_dev_...',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    username: 'assistant',
    display_name: 'AI Assistant'
  })
})
// → assistant@afterdraft.ai is live

// Your agent sends its first email
await fetch('https://api.afterdraft.ai/v1/agent/messages', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer ak_inbox_...'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    to: 'human@company.com',
    subject: 'Your weekly report',
    body_text: 'Here are the highlights...'
  })
})
