Use case overview

A user set up a Lindy flow that watches sent emails, waits for a reply, and drafts a follow-up if none comes.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    One commenter said they set up a Lindy flow tied to their sent email so that after each outgoing message, the AI waits a set amount of time and checks for a reply. If no response arrives, it drafts a follow-up and sends that draft to the user's inbox, where the person decides whether to send it.

  2. How it went

    The user said they had started using it the day before and that it was working well so far. The thread gives no metrics, volumes, or longer-term results for this follow-up flow.

  3. Worth knowing

    The practical catch from the source is that the follow-up was drafted for human review in the inbox, not sent automatically.

Example prompts

Try with Lindy
Build a flow that watches my sent emails in [Gmail or Outlook] for messages to [type of recipient, e.g. clients or prospects]. If there's no reply after [number] business days, draft a short, polite follow-up in my voice that references the original message, and save it as a draft in my inbox. Never send anything automatically; show me the first draft and the flow setup before you turn it on.
