Introducing the Workmate Beta: Your AI-Powered Executive Assistant
Today, we're excited to introduce Workmate – an AI-powered executive assistant that transforms how busy professionals handle scheduling and calendar management. Unlike traditional scheduling tools that require multiple platforms or expensive human assistants, Workmate works directly through your existing email workflow, making professional scheduling accessible to everyone.
The modern professional's calendar has become a battleground. Between back-to-back meetings, cross-timezone coordination, and the endless email chains that come with scheduling, we're spending more time organizing our work than actually doing it. What if there was a better way?
Today, we're excited to introduce Workmate – an AI-powered executive assistant that transforms how busy professionals handle scheduling and calendar management. Unlike traditional scheduling tools that require multiple platforms or expensive human assistants, Workmate works directly through your existing email workflow, making professional scheduling accessible to everyone.
The Problem: Scheduling Shouldn't Be This Hard
Every week, professionals lose countless hours to scheduling-related tasks:
- Email ping-pong: "Does Tuesday work?" "Actually, Wednesday is better." "Let me check with Sarah." "Wednesday is out, how about Thursday?"
- Calendar conflicts: Double-bookings, forgotten time zones, and meeting overlaps that could have been prevented
- Administrative overhead: The mental energy spent coordinating schedules instead of focusing on meaningful work
- Professional image concerns: Delayed responses and scheduling mishaps that can impact business relationships
For many professionals, hiring a human executive assistant isn't feasible, but booking links feel impersonal and limit your control over the scheduling process. There's been a missing middle ground... until now.
Meet Jill: Your AI Scheduling Superhero
Workmate introduces Jill, an AI assistant that handles your scheduling coordination with the professionalism of a seasoned executive assistant and the efficiency of modern technology. Simply CC Jill on your scheduling emails, and she takes care of the rest.
Here's how it works:
1. Effortless Email Integration
No new platforms to learn or booking links to share. Jill works directly within your existing email workflow. When you're coordinating a meeting, just CC jill@workmate.com and let her handle the back-and-forth, follow ups, and rescheduling.
2. Intelligent Calendar Management
Jill connects to your calendar and understands your availability, preferences, and scheduling constraints. She can coordinate across multiple time zones, avoid your blocked focus time, and even suggest optimal meeting times based on your schedule patterns.
3. Professional Communication
Every response Jill sends maintains your professional tone and brand. She communicates clearly and efficiently with meeting participants, handling follow-ups, confirmations, and changes with the polish you'd expect from a top-tier executive assistant.
4. Network Scheduling
When Jill coordinates with other Workmate users, scheduling becomes instant. No more email chains, just immediate, accurate scheduling based on everyone's real availability and preferences.
Built for Trust and Control
We understand that your calendar is critical to your professional success. That's why Workmate is designed with multiple safeguards:
- Training Mode: Review and approve Jill's understanding of your request before any scheduling emails are sent to ensure accuracy
- Transparent Process: Keep tabs on the email threads with your meeting guests with full thread visibility
- User-in-the-Loop: You remain in control of every scheduling decision, with Jill handling the coordination logistics
- Human Escalation: When complex scheduling situations arise, we have a team of humans to whom we escalate
Pricing That Makes Sense
Workmate is free.
That bears repeating: Workmate is free to use for anyone.
We offer a broad array of premium features, such as connecting multiple calendars, adding Jill to your own domain, and auto-scheduling with your colleagues, but we are not charging anything for the core feature: Unlimited meeting scheduling through your AI Executive Assistant.
The Future of Professional Scheduling
Workmate represents a new category of AI-powered workplace tools; not attempting to replace human expertise, but rather amplifying human capability. We're not building a mechanical replacement for executive assistants; we're creating an entirely new paradigm that combines the best of human judgment with AI efficiency.
Our vision extends beyond simple scheduling. As Workmate learns your preferences and patterns, it will become an increasingly sophisticated professional partner, helping you optimize not just when you meet, but how you structure your time for maximum productivity and professional impact.
