Written in your personal tone with the full thread and calendar in view, waiting in Outlook drafts for your review.

What Joshu does
Joshu reads Outlook mail and calendar, proposes replies, protects time on your schedule, and files context on its desk so tomorrow's brief is not empty. Teams meeting invites and Outlook threads share the same memory. Scheduling works the same as with Gmail: Joshu negotiates times and writes the hold to your Outlook calendar.
What you do
Connect with Microsoft OAuth using a work or personal account. Choose mailboxes and calendars Joshu may access. Keep shared mailboxes disconnected unless you explicitly add them.
Why it sticks
The assistant should fit the office you have, not force a Google-shaped workflow.
Permissions and limits
Joshu respects Exchange Online and Outlook.com permission boundaries. It cannot read other users' mail without delegated access you configure in Microsoft 365. Admin consent may be required in managed tenants.
What can Joshu do here?
Joshu reads Outlook with the OAuth scopes you approve, drafts work on its desk, and waits for your sign-off before anything sends or posts.
Joshu vs Outlook's built-in AI
Built-in assistants usually live inside one app tab. Joshu keeps email, calendar, files, and Outlook in one persistent memory so follow-ups do not reset every session.
Frequently asked questions
Joshu connects to Outlook mail and calendar through Microsoft OAuth. It triages threads, drafts replies, books time, and files context on its desk. You work with an assistant who has a desk, a computer, and persistent memory, not a chat window you have to re-prompt from scratch every morning.
Yes. Every Joshu runs in its own isolated, sandboxed cloud computer. Mail and calendar data stay in that private sandbox. Joshu only accesses mailboxes and calendars you authorize, and your data is never used to train public AI models.
By default, no. Drafts land in your Outlook drafts folder for you to review and approve before anything leaves. When you want a thread handled end to end, you can also have Joshu reply from its dedicated @joshu.me address.
Only the mailboxes and calendars you grant during Microsoft sign-in. Joshu respects Exchange Online and Outlook.com permission boundaries. It cannot read other users' mail without delegated access you configure in Microsoft 365. Admin consent may be required in managed tenants.
Copilot suggests short completions inside the message you have open. Joshu is a teammate with its own computer, long-term memory, files, and calendar. It reads the full thread, checks past notes, drafts complete responses, and tracks commitments across days instead of waiting for you to click a button.
