Problem
Daily inbox overload blocks focus time for decisions and customer work. Leaders spend up to two hours a day separating important from unimportant – with high cognitive cost and clear loss in decision quality.
Solution
The Essenz assistant analyses the inbox via the Microsoft Graph API, clusters emails by priority and topic, and delivers a compact daily briefing with concrete action recommendations – directly in Outlook, with no new logins.
