Email & Comms

Outlook + Armbrain

Working in Microsoft 365? Connect Outlook Mail and Outlook Calendar, and Armbrain sorts your email by client and knows what your day looks like.

One Outlook connection, sorted by client. Unclear items wait for you in Review.

What Armbrain takes from Outlook

Outlook comes in as two connections. Use one or both.

  • Outlook Mail: email threads through Microsoft 365, filed with the right client.
  • Outlook Calendar: today's events, used in your briefings.
  • Email decisions, dates, and commitments save to the right client.
Left alone

Both connections are read-only. Armbrain cannot send mail or change your calendar through them.
