What are Rules?

Rules let you control your AI agent’s behavior using two main settings: AI Sensitivity (when to draft replies) and Marketing Filter (what emails to filter out). These settings work alongside auto-categorization to give you full control over your inbox.

AI Sensitivity

Control when Untyped should draft a reply to incoming emails. This slider has 4 levels: Scale:
  • Very often (0): Draft replies for almost every email
  • Often (1): Draft replies for most emails that seem to need a response
  • Sometimes (2): Only draft for emails that clearly need a reply
  • Rarely (3): Only draft for urgent or high-priority emails
Start with “Often” and adjust based on how many drafts you’re getting. If you’re overwhelmed with drafts, move it to “Sometimes” or “Rarely”.

Marketing Filter

Control what emails get filtered out so you don’t see them. This slider has 4 levels: Scale:
  • Just obvious sales outreach (0): Only filter clear promotional emails
  • Cold emails, unknown senders (1): Filter promotional content and cold outreach
  • Cold emails, unknown sender, newsletters (2): Filter promotions, cold emails, and newsletters
  • Anything not directly useful for my work (3): Aggressive filtering of any non-essential emails
Be careful with level 3 - it might filter emails you actually want to see. Start with level 1 or 2 and increase gradually.

How to Adjust Settings

1

Navigate to Rules

Go to the Rules section in your Untyped dashboard at app.getuntyped.ai.
2

Adjust AI Sensitivity

Use the slider to control how often drafts are created. Move left for more drafts, right for fewer.
3

Set Marketing Filter

Use the slider to control what gets filtered. Move left for light filtering, right for aggressive filtering.
4

Configure Auto-Categorization

Toggle auto-categorization on/off and enable/disable specific labels as needed.
Your changes are saved automatically.

For High Email Volume

If you get 100+ emails per day:
  • AI Sensitivity: Sometimes or Rarely
  • Marketing Filter: Level 2 or 3
  • Auto-categorization: Enabled

For Moderate Email Volume

If you get 20-50 emails per day:
  • AI Sensitivity: Often
  • Marketing Filter: Level 1 or 2
  • Auto-categorization: Enabled

For Low Email Volume

If you get fewer than 20 emails per day:
  • AI Sensitivity: Very often or Often
  • Marketing Filter: Level 0 or 1
  • Auto-categorization: Optional

Troubleshooting

Adjust the AI Sensitivity slider to the right (toward “Rarely”). Start with “Sometimes” and adjust from there.
Your Marketing Filter might be set too high. Lower it to level 1 or 0, especially if you’re missing newsletters or updates you want to see.
The AI learns from your email patterns. If labels are consistently wrong, try disabling auto-categorization temporarily and manually labeling emails for a few days.
Move the AI Sensitivity slider to the left (toward “Very often”). This will create more draft suggestions.
