Helps with everything related to using Fyxer AI — an AI email assistant that auto-organizes your inbox, drafts replies in your communication style, and captures meeting notes with follow-up drafts. SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA compliant.
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated knowledge.
Ask the user:
- What are you trying to do with Fyxer?
- A) Set up Fyxer for the first time (Gmail or Outlook)
- B) Fix inbox organization / mislabeled emails
- C) Improve AI draft quality (sounds robotic, wrong tone)
- D) Use the meeting notetaker feature
- E) Compare Fyxer to alternatives
- F) Something else — describe it
-
Which email provider?
- A) Gmail / Google Workspace
- B) Outlook / Microsoft 365
- C) Both
-
Which plan are you on (or considering)?
- A) Free trial (haven't decided yet)
- B) Starter ($22.50-30/mo) — single inbox
- C) Professional ($37.50-50/mo) — multiple inboxes, Fyxer Chat, HubSpot
- D) Enterprise (custom)
If the user's request already provides most of this context, skip directly to the relevant step. Lead with your best-effort answer using reasonable assumptions (stated explicitly), then ask only the most critical 1-2 clarifying questions at the end.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the request maps to another skill, route:
- Choosing a meeting note-taker across platforms → "This is a note-taker selection question — run:
/sales-note-taker {user's original question}" - AI agent/workflow building → "Run:
/sales-lindy {user's original question}" - AI executive assistant comparison (alfred_ etc.) → "Run:
/sales-alfred {user's original question}" - CRM integration strategy → "Run:
/sales-integration {user's original question}"
Otherwise, answer directly from the platform reference below.
Step 3 — Fyxer platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full platform reference — capabilities, pricing, plan gates, integrations, training tips, and workarounds.
Answer the user's question using only the relevant section. Don't dump the full reference.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
You no longer need the platform guide — focus on the user's specific situation.
For improving draft quality:
- Send more emails manually first — Fyxer learns from your Sent folder
- Upload company docs and style guides (Professional+ only)
- Always review and edit drafts before sending — Fyxer never auto-sends
- If tone is wrong after 2+ weeks, consider that your sent email history may not reflect your desired style
For fixing inbox organization:
- Manually move mislabeled emails to the correct label — Fyxer learns from corrections
- Whitelist important senders that keep getting buried
- Give it 1-2 weeks of corrections before judging accuracy
- Check if your email rules/filters conflict with Fyxer's labels
If you discover a gotcha, workaround, or tip not covered in references/learnings.md, append it there.
Gotchas
Best-effort from research — review these, especially items about plan-gated features and billing that may be outdated.
- No API, no webhooks, no Zapier. Fyxer is entirely UI-driven — you cannot automate anything programmatically. No integration surface for developers.
- Fyxer never auto-sends emails. All drafts require manual review and send. This is by design but means it's an assistant, not an automation.
- Credit card required for free trial. Multiple users report unexpected charges ($30-900) when trials end. Set a calendar reminder to cancel if evaluating.
- HubSpot is the only CRM integration and requires Professional ($37.50+/mo). No Salesforce, Pipedrive, or other CRM support.
- Single inbox on Starter. If you need multiple inboxes organized, you must upgrade to Professional.
- No Apple Mail support. Gmail and Outlook only.
- Meeting notetaker is secondary. Fyxer's notes are less capable than dedicated tools like Fathom or Fireflies — consider a dedicated note-taker for sales call intelligence.
- Self-improving: If you discover something not covered here, append it to
references/learnings.mdwith today's date.

Troubleshooting
Email drafts sound robotic or get facts wrong
Symptom: AI-drafted replies don't match your tone, promise things you didn't agree to, or get dates/details wrong Cause: Fyxer's voice model is trained on your sent email history. If your history is short, formal, or inconsistent, drafts will be poor. The AI can also "hallucinate" commitments or facts. Solution: Always review every draft before sending — never trust blindly. Send more emails manually to build training data. On Professional, upload company docs and style guides. If drafts are consistently wrong after 2+ weeks of active use, the tool may not be a good fit for your communication style.
Unexpected billing charges after free trial
Symptom: Charged $30-900 when free trial expired, even if you thought you canceled Cause: Trial requires a credit card upfront and auto-converts to paid plan. Some users report charges even after attempting cancellation. Solution: Set a calendar reminder 2 days before trial ends. Cancel from the Fyxer dashboard (Settings → Subscription). If incorrectly charged, contact support@fyxer.com immediately. If no response, dispute with your credit card company. Document everything.
Dashboard slow or unresponsive
Symptom: Fyxer dashboard takes 30+ seconds to load, pages freeze, or show "not responding" Cause: Known performance issues, especially after infrastructure incidents. Heavy inbox volumes can also cause slowdowns. Solution: Try refreshing the browser, clearing cache, or switching browsers. Check Fyxer's status page or Twitter (@FyxerAI) for known outages. If Outlook integration is slowing down your email client, consider temporarily disabling Fyxer and re-enabling after the issue resolves.
