The team email workspace: much more than a summary

A company doesn't want a plain summarizer: it wants a place where the whole team handles email together, without duplication or misses. That's what the Team & Enterprise plan is.

Team & Enterprise isn't a summary for many: it's a shared inbox + a common agenda + assigned tasks + an activity journal + a scoped assistant, in a space billed per space, not per seat.

Key takeaways

  • InboxBriefs Team is no longer a summary, it's a full workspace around shared mailboxes
  • Shared inbox, prioritized summary, assignable tasks, common agenda, roles, activity journal
  • Not a helpdesk: the mailbox stays the mailbox, the workspace sits read-only on top
  • Billed per space: adding members doesn't push the bill up
  • Members' personal inboxes stay fully private

InboxBriefs started with a simple question: how to read less email without missing anything. Every morning, a prioritized summary lands in your inbox, you decide, you move on. In a team, that same mechanic changes shape. It's no longer an email arriving in a mailbox: it's a small work console the whole team shares.

What an email workspace contains

A team space in InboxBriefs brings four things together: the company's shared mailboxes, a prioritized daily summary for each, a common agenda with tasks and events extracted from the emails, and an activity journal that shows in real time what the team is doing. That combination is what makes it a workspace, not a plain digest.

  • Shared mailboxes: contact@, support@, billing@, or an SMB's main mailbox
  • Prioritized summary per mailbox, visible to the whole team
  • Tasks assignable to one or several members, with deadline and notification
  • Shared agenda (tasks + events), with read-only external calendars
  • Fine-grained roles and permissions (invite, remove, manage mailboxes, manage rules)
  • Team assistant: a chatbot strictly scoped to the space
  • Activity journal to trace who did what

Why it isn't a helpdesk

A ticketing tool forces you out of your inbox: your email client is no longer the source of truth, the ticketing is. That costs a lot in migration, training, broken habits. An email workspace does the opposite: the inbox stays the inbox, InboxBriefs sits read-only on top. No data is moved, no address is masked, no procedure is imposed on customers.

The Team & Enterprise plan is billed per space, not per seat: adding members doesn't push the bill up. The price covers the workspace itself.

Who it's for

Not for a 200-person contact center - those still need a real helpdesk. For 2-to-20-person outfits that live on shared mailboxes: agencies, firms, e-commerces, associations, billing teams. They don't need a heavy tool, but a plain email thread stops scaling at five. InboxBriefs Team gives them that middle ground. In practice, an admin creates a space, connects one or more shared mailboxes, invites members by email, and the team lands every morning in front of the same prioritized summary - then, through the day, on the same agenda. Members' personal inboxes stay fully private: they're never visible from the space.


Frequently asked questions

No. Gmail, Outlook and the rest keep working as usual. InboxBriefs sits on top read-only: it summarizes and structures, it doesn't replace.

The assistant, the summary and the agenda are strictly scoped to the mailboxes connected to the space. A member's personal inbox is never visible from a team space.

Yes. A space can group as many shared mailboxes as needed (contact@, support@, billing@…). Each mailbox has its own daily summary, and all of them feed the same agenda.
