Before you start
You need Incredible on your Mac or PC. If you don’t have it yet, the Set up Inbox and Calendar button offers the download, and Incredible is free for 7 days.
Inbox and Calendar works with Gmail, Google Calendar and Outlook, and uses the ones you have. Connect them when Inbox and Calendar asks, or let it work in your browser, where you’re already signed in.
How to set up Inbox and Calendar
Six steps, from finding Inbox and Calendar in the app to its first round of work. Each picture shows what you’ll see in Incredible.
1Find Inbox and Calendar in Use cases
Open Use cases from the sidebar in Incredible. Inbox and Calendar is under General, and you can also search for it by name. Tell me more on its card opens it. The Set up Inbox and Calendar button on this page opens it in Incredible too.
2Read what it does, then press Add
The sheet shows what Inbox and Calendar hands you, when it runs and what it asks you before it acts. Nothing is set up until you press Add.
3Incredible makes the agent
Add hands the request to Incredible in its chat. Incredible makes Inbox and Calendar, adds it to your sidebar and sets its routine: weekdays at 08:00, 12:00 and 16:00.
4Answer its first question
Inbox and Calendar introduces itself and asks what it needs to work for you, such as which apps you use. If one isn’t connected yet, it asks you to connect it, or works in your browser where you’re already signed in.
5Approve its first round of work
Inbox and Calendar does the work in your apps and tells you what it found. Anything it wants to send waits for your answer, in its chat and on your Needs you list.
6Correct it once, and it remembers
When something isn’t how you want it, tell Inbox and Calendar in its chat. It saves the correction as a rule in its memory and follows it from then on. Its routine is in the same panel, where you can run it now or switch it off.
Two more agents for email and scheduling
Each is made for one kind of person. You set it up the same way, from Use cases or with its button here.
For founders: an agent that keeps track of every promise in your email
A founder’s week is full of small promises: send the deck, introduce two people, check back after the board meeting. Follow-up Keeper reads your sent email and Slack, keeps every open promise on one list and reminds you before one goes stale. When someone else owes you something, it writes the nudge for you to send.
For recruiters: an agent that books interviews without the back and forth
Booking one interview often means a long email thread between the candidate and two busy interviewers. When a candidate moves to the interview stage, Interview Scheduler reads the interviewers’ calendars, offers the candidate three times and books the one they pick, with the video link and a short prep note.
Questions
Does Inbox and Calendar send anything without asking me?
Replies and invites wait for your go, until you tell it which ones it may send on its own. Everything waiting for you shows in its chat and on your Needs you list, and you can tell it which things it may do on its own.
What if I don’t use Gmail, Google Calendar or Outlook?
Tell Inbox and Calendar which tool you use when it asks. Agents work in any app you connect to Incredible, and in your own browser on any website where you’re signed in.
Can I change what Inbox and Calendar does later?
Yes. Tell it what to change in its chat, in your own words, and it updates its routine, its rules and what it does. You can also run its routine now or switch it off from its panel.
