- A personalized email assistant that can help you triage and respond to emails
- An integration with your CRM that automatically adds emails from customers to
your CRM - A tool that flags important emails and sends you notifications about them
- An app that helps you find emails from a specific sender or with a certain
subject line - A script that archives all of your old emails
These are just a few examples of what you can build with the Front API – the
possibilities are really only limited by your imagination!
