Spiro Assistant: Email Commands

The Spiro Assistant uses AI to recommend top-priority actions you can take to drive your deals forward, but the Assistant can also help you streamline data entry and even answer questions about your contacts and pipeline right from your email inbox.

Forwarding Emails to the Spiro Assistant

When you receive an email from a contact or prospect, forward it to assistant@spiro.ai and use any of the commands below in the body of the email. Spiro will use the email domain and signature information to create Opportunities, Contacts, and Companies in Spiro.

Important: Make sure that when you are forwarding an email to the Spiro Assistant, the email is from the prospect and not from you

Creating and updating Opportunities

• Add opportunity
• Add new opportunity
• Create new opportunity
• Create opportunity
• Add new deal
• Mark closed won
• Mark closed lost

You can also set additional fields in the body of the email if you want to set specific values for an Opportunity:

• Opportunity name: ____
• Amount: ____
• Close date: ____
• Description: ____

Creating Contacts

• Add Contact
• Create contact
• Add new contact
• New contact
• Create new contact
• Add him/her
• Add this contact

You can also create a contact from your email directly by emailing the Spiro Assistant "Create contact [Name] [Email Address]" (ie.  Create contact Andy Levi andy@spiro.ai)

When you send an email to a prospect that doesn't exist in Spiro yet, you can BCC or CC the Spiro Assistant, and Spiro will create a company, contact, and opportunity for you.

Note: this feature only works when there is only one recipient.

Duplicates: To prevent duplicates, Spiro will first search for the email address (or domain if you are creating a company) in Spiro. If Spiro sees that the email address or domain already exists, it will not create a new record.

Setting Reminders

• Remind me to [call her] on [date]
• Remind me to [follow up] [next week]
• Remind me to [reach out] [tomorrow]

• Remind me to [send proposal] [next Monday]
• Remind [team member name] to [call] [next week]
• Remind [team member name] to [send email] on [date]

When you receive an email from the Spiro Assistant alerting you of a reminder, you can respond with Reschedule to [ date/day] or Mark as done if you have completed the reminder.

Adding Internal Notes

If you can your colleagues are discussing an opportunity or a contact over email, you can forward that email thread to the Spiro Assistant with the command Add notes to [Contact Name] and the internal communication will be added.

Adding Attachments

If you received an attachment in an email you want to add to Spiro (ie. a signed proposal from a prospect) you can forward the email to the Spiro Assistant with the command Add attachment and Spiro will automatically associate it to the contact record in Spiro.

You can also email the Spiro Assistant directly with an attachment and the command Attach to [contact email address] and Spiro will look up the correct contact using their email address and add the attachment to their timeline.
