Triage

A triage engine for anything that arrives

Triage is not a fixed email inbox. Register any object and its records become triageable items, worked through the same guided flow, whether they arrived as an email, a scanned letter or a record created by an integration

What you can do

Inbound work, understood before anyone opens it

Emails, scanned post and any other inbound record land in one inbox. AI suggests what each item is, pulls out the data and finds the matching record. A person confirms and moves on

email icon

Inbound email captured end to end

Mail is received, parsed into body, headers and attachments, and turned into a record automatically.

anyobject icon

Any object, not just email

Register an object for triage and choose whether every new record, or only those matching a filter, reaches the inbox.

AI classification

The suggested communication type is pre-selected with a 0 to 100 confidence score.

extract icon

Per-field extraction

The data-collection form is pre-filled from the item and its attachments, each value with its own confidence. Re-run extraction whenever you like.

matching icon

Three-stage record matching

An exact match first, then a tidied-up match, then one that forgives the misreads a scanner makes. The last stage is deliberately cautious, so an ambiguous read never guesses.

sender icon

Automatic sender identification

Exact or pattern rules map fields on the item to fields on your sender objects, so the sender is usually known before anyone looks.

A guided eight-step flow

Sender, type, parent record, child records, data collection, attachments, actions and tasks, save. Steps appear only when relevant.

attachments icon

Attachments become evidence

Files are attached to the right record, named by rule and typed by rule, and virus-scanned. Unscannable files are download-only behind a permission.

followup icon

Follow-up actions and tasks

Create linked follow-up records as part of triage, so nothing is lost between the inbox and the work.

Inbox ergonomics

Saved filter folders with unread counts, read/unread marking, bulk re-typing, multi-select and a full history per item.

rendering icon

Configurable rendering

Decide what each object’s items look like in the list and in detail: fields, icons, dates, badges and conditional colour.

feeds icon

Feeds your workflows

Triage items are ordinary records, so any workflow trigger can fire on them, and monitor rules can flag items left unread too long.

How it works

Three steps, no tickets to engineering

1

Register what should be triaged

Inbound emails, scanned post, or any object of your own, optionally filtered.

2

Define the types

For each communication type, the form to complete, the records to link, the evidence rules and the follow-up actions.

3

Work the inbox

AI suggests type, data and matching record. The triager confirms, adjusts and saves, and workflows take it from there.

What makes it different

The AI is an accelerant under human control: classification with a confidence score, extraction with per-field confidence, and record matching that degrades gracefully instead of guessing. All of it lands as suggestions a person confirms.
