PixieInbox Triage and Email Priority
An AI triage agent that reads your email, classifies every message by urgency and type, surfaces what needs your attention, and quietly handles the rest. You stop managing your inbox. Your inbox starts managing itself.
The Problem
Your inbox is a to-do list other people write for you.
The average professional receives 120+ emails per day. Maybe five of them require immediate action. Maybe fifteen need a response today. The rest are newsletters, notifications, CC chains, and FYI forwards that somebody thought you should see. You spend your morning sorting through all 120 to find the five that matter.
Email filters help, but they're brittle. Rules break when senders change formats, when subject lines don't match patterns, or when the same person sends both urgent requests and casual FYIs. Labels and folders create the illusion of organization while leaving you with the same sorting problem — just across multiple containers instead of one.
The deeper problem is that email doesn't understand context. A message from a key client about a deadline is not the same priority as a message from the same client forwarding a news article. A cold outreach email from a relevant vendor is not the same as the tenth newsletter from a platform you signed up for three years ago. Static rules can't make these distinctions. They require understanding.
Pixie brings that understanding to your inbox. It reads every incoming message, classifies it by type and urgency based on content and context, and presents you with a prioritized queue instead of a chronological dump. The important emails are at the top. The noise is handled without you ever seeing it.
How It Works
Triage, not just sorting.
Kilo runs on a Haiku-class model — fast enough to process emails in real time, smart enough to understand what they mean.
As emails arrive, Kilo reads the full content: sender, subject, body, attachments, thread history. It doesn't just scan keywords — it reads the message the way you would, understanding requests, questions, deadlines, and tone. Processing happens in seconds, not minutes.
Each email is classified on two axes: what type of message it is (action required, response needed, FYI, newsletter, notification, spam) and how urgent it is (immediate, today, this week, whenever, never). The classification considers sender relationship, content signals, and historical patterns — not just subject line keywords.
Kilo presents your inbox as a priority-ordered queue. Action-required emails from important contacts are at the top. Informational emails are grouped and summarized. Newsletters are batched into a digest. Noise is archived automatically. You see five emails instead of fifty, and the five are the right five.
For long email threads, Kilo generates a summary: what the thread is about, what the latest update says, and whether action is needed from you. You can read the full thread if you want, but most of the time the summary is enough. This alone saves 30+ minutes per day for heavy email users.
When you override a classification — reading something Kilo marked as low priority, or ignoring something it marked as high — that signal feeds back into the model. Kilo learns who matters most to you, which types of emails you always read, and which you always skip. Accuracy improves with every correction.
The OS Underneath
Triage infrastructure, not email rules.
Kilo isn't a filter plugin. It's an agent running on real infrastructure designed for continuous email processing.
Memory Continuity
Kilo remembers your email patterns across weeks and months. It knows that emails from certain senders are always important, that certain types of notifications can always be batched, and that your reading behavior changes between weekdays and weekends. This accumulated knowledge makes classification more accurate than any static ruleset.
Verification Gates
Kilo never deletes an email or sends a reply on its own. It classifies, prioritizes, and recommends — but the destructive actions require your approval. If Kilo is uncertain about a classification, it defaults to showing you the message rather than hiding it. False negatives (hiding important emails) are treated as a more serious error than false positives (showing you something unimportant).
Fleet Learning
Spam patterns, phishing indicators, and classification improvements discovered by email agents across the Montebelle fleet propagate back to Kilo. When a new type of priority signal is identified — like a pattern of urgent requests that don't use the word "urgent" — every triage agent in the network learns to recognize it.
