Sentience can connect interests you might usually keep separate. For a scientist who enjoyed Connections, it linked puzzles with protein research and suggested a protein-design game. Useful discoveries can arrive alongside digests and suggested replies, with sharing available when colleagues need answers too.
Keep work moving when you are busy
What did we promise? Why did the plan change? Your Sentience can search connected messages, meetings and documents to answer the questions that keep coming back to you.
It also prepares meeting briefs, daily digests and replies for review. Enable sharing so colleagues can ask about the work you have made available.
Give the work your history and voice
Lindy supports skills, scheduled routines, meeting tools, integrations and editable memory. Shared Slack workflows use approved team sources, and Enterprise includes named approvers.
Choose Sentience when you want recurring work to draw on your own conversations and commitments. It can prepare replies in your voice and help teammates find answers without starting another conversation with you.
Clear one loose end
Connect your email and messages. Ask what you promised to follow up on, then review a draft reply in your voice. Enable sharing later if teammates keep asking about the same work.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to map out a workflow to get started?
No. Ask Sentience to find unanswered messages, prepare you for a conversation or draft a reply. It uses the sources you connect and what you tell it. For something you want done regularly, such as a weekly review of open commitments, you can set a routine.
Will a drafted reply take our earlier conversations into account?
Sentience can look up earlier exchanges in your connected sources and use what you already agreed to. It combines that history with your vocabulary, rhythm and way of addressing the recipient. That matters when a polite reply also needs to remember a promise or explain why your answer has changed.
Can I review an email before Sentience sends it?
Yes. Review the draft, change the wording and approve it when you are ready. You choose which actions need approval. Sentience can also surface a suggested reply before you ask, so the next step is already started.
Start with something on your mind
Connect your email and calendar to get started. Sentience uses them to show you what needs your attention, prepare you for meetings and draft replies in your voice. Bring an idea, ask a question or record your thoughts. Share your Sentience when others need answers too.
