What is an AI executive assistant?
An AI executive assistant is a personal AI agent that helps an executive manage communication, commitments, information, meetings, and recurring work while preserving the executive’s preferences, permissions, and approval authority.
Why is this important?
Executive work is fragmented across email, calendars, meetings, messaging, CRM records, documents, and informal requests. Frontline Max brings those surfaces together so an executive can reduce inbox administration, maintain follow-up discipline, prepare decisions, and request work conversationally without losing the company and customer context behind each task.
How it works
Max connects to Gmail or Outlook and calendar context to label incoming email, prepare drafts in the executive’s tone, create follow-up reminders, and support scheduling. It can run recurring tasks and routines such as daily briefings, follow-up trackers, research, or weekly reports, and it can respond to on-demand chat requests from WhatsApp, Slack, Microsoft Teams, desktop, or mobile while recording activity for review.
Technical example
Every morning, Max summarizes priority email, labels messages that need a response, prepares editable drafts, identifies commitments without replies, and delivers a briefing in WhatsApp. Before a board or customer meeting, the executive asks Max from mobile to assemble CRM changes, recent conversations, documents, risks, and open decisions, then schedules a recurring routine to track the agreed actions.
Implementation notes
Use delegated OAuth connections, per-user context isolation, explicit draft and send boundaries, recipient verification, confidential-topic rules, source links, activity logs, and approval for external communication or calendar changes. Recurring routines need owners, schedules, stop conditions, failure alerts, and review. Availability across channels should not imply that every channel receives identical permissions or data.
