How do I use the draft card?

In apps that can show it, your AI can display a draft as a card. You can edit To, Cc, Bcc, Subject, and body, choose Save edits, and then Send. The click on Send is your approval.

How do I edit and send from the card?

  1. Ask your AI to draft a reply. It shows the draft as a card.
  2. Change To, Cc, Bcc, Subject, or the body if you want.
  3. If you changed anything, choose Save edits. The card says "Saved to your Drafts folder."
  4. Choose Send. After it goes out, the card shows "Sent at" and the time.

You must save edits before sending. Until you do, Send is greyed out and the card says "Save your edits before sending." The card will not send text that differs from the saved draft.

Why is there no Send button?

  • Sending is off. The card says so. Ask your AI to turn it on, or send the draft from your mail app.
  • A sample draft from an inbox that is not connected. It cannot be sent.
  • The app is not Claude or ChatGPT. Sending from the card works only there. In other apps, such as Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code, approve the send through the approval link instead.

What if the card stops working?

A card works for 15 minutes, and showing the draft again replaces it.

  • If it says "This card has expired or was replaced by a newer one," ask your AI to show the draft again.
  • If it says the inbox is paused, resume the inbox on the Inboxes page, then ask again.

What if my app does not show cards?

You get the draft as text, with To, Cc, Subject, and the full body, and approve it on the approval page. See How do I approve an email before it sends?
