What this free email triage tool is
A lightweight 2-minute workflow to keep inboxes from consuming your best hours. Instead of reading the same messages repeatedly, you make a fast choice and move.
Best times to use it
- Morning triage only (not deep reading).
- After meetings to clear small asks.
- Before focus blocks to remove distractions.
How to run a 2-minute triage
- Open the next unread email (no cherry-picking), press Start 120s.
- Decide: Archive · Quick reply (paste a template and send) · Schedule (add to your task/calendar).
- Click the matching counter, go to the next email.
This tool does not send email itself. Compose email opens your default mail app (mailto:) with your template text for privacy and simplicity.
Tips & micro-boundaries
- If a reply takes < 60 seconds, do it now. Otherwise schedule it.
- Batch triage 10–15 emails, then stop. Protect deep-work time.
- Keep signatures short. Offer clear ETAs and one next step.
