The inbox audit

Your team's year.
Read, mapped, walked through.

Connect your email. We read a year of it, draw the map, then walk you through it live, so you know what to build first and what to leave alone.

Your inbox map is free for early sign-ups. We only read · Nothing is sent · About ten new maps a week.

Want the whole team mapped? Team audits are $1,500 for up to five inboxes, credited in full to the AI Sherpa retainer if you start within 30 days. Book a free 30-minute call →

What is an inbox audit?

An inbox audit reads a year of your team's email, with read-only access, and turns it into a map: where the hours go, who carries which work, and which jobs come back often enough that an agent could do them. You get the map, then a one-hour walkthrough with Simon to decide what to build first.

Four steps. You do the first one.

About two minutes of your time, then one hour together.

The walkthrough

One hour, live, with Simon.

The map tells you what is happening. The walkthrough tells you what to do about it. We go through it together, on a video call, with whoever decides what changes.
