AI Reply Drafting

Draft a reply to an interested cold reply in one click, then review, edit, and send it yourself

A first draft, not an autoresponder

One click turns an interested reply into a ready-to-edit draft.

When a cold reply comes back interested, the slow part is not deciding to answer, it is writing the first version. AI reply drafting reads the thread and writes a short, on-brand reply for you. The draft lands in the reply box in your inbox, where you read it, change anything you like, and send it yourself. It is an Ultra capability, and it never sends on its own.

You are always the one who sends
The draft is placed in the reply editor for you to review. Nothing is sent until you click Send, from the same cold mailbox and the same reply path you already use. There is no auto-reply and no send on your behalf.

Draft a reply

From the cold reply in your inbox.

1

Open the cold reply

In your email inbox, switch to the Cold filter and open a reply flagged as interested or a booked meeting. Cold replies are sorted by intent, so the hot ones are easy to find.
2

Click "AI draft reply"

The action sits in the reply rail. Laureo reads the thread and writes a short reply grounded in what the prospect said and what you sent, then drops it into the reply editor below.
3

Review and edit

Read the draft, adjust the wording, add anything specific, and remove anything you do not want. The draft is fully editable, exactly like a reply you typed yourself.
4

Send it yourself

When you are happy, click Send. The reply goes out from the dedicated cold mailbox on the same thread, and a reply is never counted against your cold sending cap.

Or let it draft the moment a reply lands

Turn on automatic drafting and skip the click.

You do not have to click at all. In Reply Handling, turn on Draft replies with AI for a sequence and Laureo watches its cold replies for you. When a prospect replies with clear interest or books a meeting, it writes the draft on its own and drops it into your cold reply rail with a review banner, often ready before you open the thread. It only runs on interested and meeting replies, never on a not-interested, out-of-office, or opt-out reply, and only when it is confident about the reply’s intent.

Automatic drafting still never sends
Automatic mode changes when the draft appears, not who sends it. Every draft still lands in the reply editor for you to read, edit, and send yourself, from the same cold mailbox. There is no auto-reply. The Draft replies with AI toggle is set per sequence in Reply Handling and is an Ultra capability, the same as one-click drafting.

Grounded in the conversation

It answers what they actually said.

The draft uses the whole thread plus the cold outreach section: the campaign and the step the prospect replied to, the lead’s details, their intent and any earlier replies from them, your booking link, and your sender details, all written in your writing style. So it answers the real conversation and the offer they responded to instead of a generic template. It keeps things short, acknowledges what the prospect wrote, and moves toward a clear next step, such as offering your booking link when they are interested. It will not invent pricing, dates, or promises that the thread and the campaign do not state, which is why a quick read before sending is always worth it.

Under the draft, Why this draft shows what was used, grouped as Writing style, Cold outreach (the campaign, the step they replied to, the lead and their earlier replies) and Your business. It stays while the draft is in the reply box and goes away once you clear it or send. A suggested reply on the same thread works from the same facts.

Your data stays yours
Drafting runs under zero-data-retention: the AI provider does not keep or train on your thread. The reply text is used to write the draft and nothing more. AI drafting draws on your workspace's monthly AI credits like other AI features, so a draft is metered the same way.

When the button appears

Interested replies, with a healthy mailbox.

  • It shows on interested replies. The action appears on a cold reply classified as interested or a booked meeting, the categories where a personal answer is the right next move.
  • The mailbox must be available. If the pinned cold mailbox is paused or disconnected, reconnect it first. You reply, and draft, from that same mailbox.
  • Ultra plan. AI reply drafting is part of the Ultra Cold Outreach module, alongside sequences, deliverability controls, and reply handling.
