What Dustav is

Most AI hands you a blank box that waits for a prompt. Dustav is built differently: it runs a small business's inbox. Connect your Gmail and Dustav reads every email as it lands — the whole thread, the attachments, even the spreadsheet — and hands you back a decoded card with the reply already drafted in your voice. It files the mail into your own folders, enters the data you'd retype by hand, lines the dates up for your calendar, and keeps track of what you owe people. You review and hit send. It does the rest.

That last part is the whole shape of the product: Dustav prepares; you commit. Nothing is sent, and nothing lands on your calendar, without your click.

Your mail stays in Gmail

Dustav is a mirror of your real Gmail, not a replacement for it. Your mail lives where it always has; the folders are your folders; a reply threads into your real conversations and shows up in your Gmail Sent like any other. Dustav adds the one thing Gmail doesn't have — something that has actually read the mail — without ever becoming a second place your email lives. Connecting takes one OAuth click, every other email app you use keeps working, and if you ever leave, everything is still sitting in your Gmail. See how Dustav reads your mail.

What it does all day

• Drafts your replies — each inbound email gets one real read and a reply written the way you would, waiting in your Drafts.
• Runs your recurring jobs — describe one once and it's a workflow: the data entry ("every class sign-up goes in the table"), the standing outbound (an order lands → the print request is drafted to the shop), the morning drafts from your own templates.
• Keeps your calendar — dates found in your mail are lined up as proposals; one tap from you books them onto your real Google Calendar.
• Files the paperwork — receipts, invoices, and contracts land in Paperwork; each email is filed into your own folders.
• Remembers your business — owed actions on TODO, and the facts it learns on Intelligence — read off the replies you send (a rate, a policy, who you use), written down once, never asked about.

You can also just talk to it. Every screen has Dustav beside it, and a full Chat page when the job is bigger than a click — but the point isn't chat. The point is the work that's already done when you sit down.

Who it's for, and how you get in

Dustav is built for creators, makers, and one-person shops who run the whole business out of Gmail — where the orders, clients, receipts, and suppliers all land in one inbox. It's invite-only, and you pay for exactly what it does, metered to the cent. See getting in and how billing works.

And you can check its work

Everything Dustav does is on the record: every email carries a visible trace of what it read and did, every action shows up as something you can open, and every model call is priced in the app. A product that reads your business's email has to earn that trust — start with what Dustav never does and everything on the record.
