Email Management

Emmie: Streamlined Email Communication

  • Tasks Emmie Can Handle:
    - Monitoring and responding to emails with precision.
    - Generating, refining, and personalizing professional emails.
    - Supporting diverse email requirements like customer support, sales outreach, and follow-ups.
    - Providing industry-specific email templates for increased efficiency.
    ​

  • How to Integrate: You can link your email directly within Sintra's "Integrations" section to enable Emmie to fully manage communication tasks directly through the app. Tasks like retrieving emails by sender, subject, or time period are supported. You no longer need external tools like Gmail or Outlook; the process is seamless in Sintra.


Customer Support

Cassie: AI-Driven Customer Query Management

  • Tasks Cassie Can Handle:
    - Addressing routine customer support questions based on pre-loaded company resources such as troubleshooting guides and policies.
    - Generating responses to inquiries directly within the Sintra app.
    ​

  • Limitations: - Cassie cannot integrate directly with user-facing platforms (e.g., company websites, WhatsApp). - All responses and interactions are confined within the Sintra ecosystem for user-controlled management.


Task Management and Scheduling

Scheduling and Receptionist Features

While Sintra offers tools to manage specific tasks like appointment scheduling, there are limitations:

  • AI receptionist features cannot interact directly with external clients or handle phone calls.

  • Integration with external-facing customer platforms (like websites) is currently unavailable.


Financial Workflows

Sintra has deep financial integration capabilities, covering accounting, invoicing, expense tracking, and reporting through connected tools.

QuickBooks Integration

Sintra's QuickBooks integration supports a wide range of financial tasks:

  • Create and send invoices with line items, due dates, and amounts

  • Record payments against invoices

  • Track and categorize expenses with vendors

  • Manage customer and vendor records

  • Generate Cash Flow, Profit & Loss, and Balance Sheet reports

  • Query financial data in natural language (e.g., "Show me all overdue invoices" or "What were my biggest expenses this quarter?")

Xero Integration

Similar accounting capabilities β€” invoicing, purchase management, customer and vendor operations, and financial reports.

30+ Additional Financial Tools

Through the integrations platform, users can also connect to FreshBooks, Zoho Books, FreeAgent, Stripe, and many others covering accounting, invoicing, payment processing, and financial data analysis.

How to Access Financial Workflows

  • Financial tasks are handled conversationally through Helpers β€” particularly Dexter (Data Analyst) for financial analysis and reporting

  • Write operations (creating invoices, recording expenses) require your approval for security

  • Read operations (pulling reports, querying data) run without extra approval steps


Conclusion

Sintra's AI Helpers are designed to enhance productivity by specializing in distinct business functions such as email handling, internal customer support, and task scheduling. Emmie and Cassie are the primary options for robust email and customer query management within Sintra's ecosystem. Remember, Sintra apps are intended for internal use by authorized personnel and do not directly integrate with external client-facing solutions. For comprehensive workflow automation, explore the features of each Helper to find the perfect match for your operational needs.
