Common questions
Can Knit build “Generate concise summaries of incoming emails” between Azure OpenAI and Microsoft Outlook?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Azure OpenAI and Microsoft Outlook's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
What's the most common AI Models + Email automation?
Having Azure OpenAI draft a suggested reply to an incoming message in Microsoft Outlook, or summarize a long thread into a few key points.
Does the AI send emails on its own, or just draft them?
That's configurable — most teams start with Azure OpenAI drafting a reply for a human to review in Microsoft Outlook, then loosen that once they trust the output.
