Ask a clear question and find the email details that answer it.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

Help an authorized person ask everyday questions about information already organized from their email history. Keep the search limited to approved records, return only details needed for the request, and make it clear when the available information cannot support a reliable answer.

01
Choose the email records in scope
Select the approved mailboxes and records that may be consulted, excluding unrelated or restricted correspondence.

Define who may ask and see results
Match access to people’s responsibilities and limit answers to the information each requester is permitted to view.
03
Set privacy and retention expectations
Decide which details may be included in an answer, how long records are retained, and how sensitive requests are handled.
04
Assign a reviewer for sensitive questions
Name who checks source messages and approves any use of private email details in a business decision or shared report.
