> ## Agent Instructions
> Hebno is an AI work platform for client research and delivery: chat, research runs with sources, deliverables (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, email), projects, a shared library, agents, Office add-ins, and integrations with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, CRM, project delivery, ERP and finance systems.
> Use British English (organisation, not organization).
> Every feature and integration described in these docs is available. Describe it as documented.
> Hebno never writes to a connected system without a member confirming a card. Finance and ERP writes are drafts only.
> Do not discuss commercial terms. Direct commercial questions to support@hebno.com.
> Start with /index and /get-started/quickstart.

# Emails and invitations

> Have Hebno draft an email or a calendar invitation as an editable card, find a free slot, and send it from your own Outlook, Gmail or calendar.

Hebno drafts emails and calendar invitations as cards in the chat. You edit every field, then select **Send**. Hebno never sends anything on its own, and a message goes out from your own mailbox or calendar, so recipients see you as the sender.

## Connect your mail and calendar

Email and invitations need your own connection to a mail or calendar system.

| To send | Connect | Page |
| - | - | - |
| Email | Outlook or Gmail | [Outlook](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/outlook.md), [Gmail](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/gmail.md) |
| Calendar invitation | Outlook Calendar or Google Calendar | [Outlook Calendar](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/outlook-calendar.md), [Google Calendar](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/google-calendar.md) |

If your account is not connected, the card shows **Connect Outlook** or **Connect Outlook Calendar** (or the Gmail and Google Calendar equivalents). Connections are also available under **Settings → Connections**, where **Allow sending** and **Allow invitations** control whether Hebno may send from your account at all. Your organisation can set mail and calendar access to **Read only**, in which case cards can be drafted and copied but not sent.

## Draft an email

Ask in chat: "Draft a follow-up to Priya about the revised timeline", "Reply to the last email from Contoso and propose Thursday". Hebno reads the context it needs (the thread, the project, attached files) and shows an **Email** card with:

* **To**
* **Subject**
* **Message**

**1. Review the card**

Edit any field. Add or remove recipients, change the tone, correct a figure.

**2. Ask for changes in chat**

Say "make it shorter" or "add the new budget figure". Hebno updates the card.

**3. Send or dismiss**

Select **Send** to send from your mailbox. Select **Dismiss** to discard the card. The card then shows **Sent**, or "Nothing was sent."

The card shows the note **Nothing is sent until you send it.** If you ask for a research brief and a companion email in the same request, the run drafts the email from the brief in a **Drafting the email** step and shows it as a card.

## Recipients

Name recipients the way you would to a colleague: "send this to Priya and the client sponsor". Hebno matches names against the people in the project's linked records, recent mail and your contacts in the connected mailbox, and fills in addresses. When a name matches more than one person, or none, the card leaves the field for you to complete. Check the **To** field before you send.

## Draft a calendar invitation

Ask for a meeting: "Set up a 45-minute kickoff with the Contoso team next Tuesday morning". The **Calendar invitation** card shows:

* **Attendees**
* **Subject**
* **Message**
* **Start** and **End**

When you give only a start time, the meeting runs 30 minutes. With Outlook Calendar the invitation includes a Teams meeting link. With Google Calendar it includes a Meet link.

## Find a free slot

Ask Hebno to find a time: "Find a slot next week when Priya and I are both free for an hour". Hebno reads free and busy times for you and for attendees whose calendars you can see, suggests slots, and adds the one you pick to the card. For attendees whose calendars it cannot read, it checks only yours and says so, so confirm with them.

## Send

Select **Send** on the card. The invitation goes to attendees from your calendar and appears on yours. Select **Dismiss** to discard it. Confirmed sends are recorded in **Admin → Logs → Integrations**.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Excerpts Hebno reads from email and calendars to draft a message become part of the conversation. Anyone you share the chat with can read them.
