- Finds threads where you owe a reply or the other person went quiet.
- Drafts a short, friendly follow-up for each one.
- Puts it all in one morning brief.
What you end up with
A list of dropped threads with a ready-to-send nudge for each.

Every Monday at 8am, look at my sent email, my calendar from the last 30 days and my task list. List conversations where (a) I promised something and haven't sent it, or (b) I asked something and got no reply in 7+ days. For each, draft a 2-sentence friendly follow-up. Don't send anything.
