MyEA beta — what it does, and what it doesn't do yet

Thanks for testing MyEA. It's a virtual executive assistant for your personal life: it reads the email and calendar you connect, works out the few things that genuinely need you, drafts replies for your approval, and keeps track of what people owe you. This page is the honest version of what you're getting.

The one promise that never bends

Nothing is ever sent without your tap. MyEA drafts; you decide. It never sends an email, accepts an invitation, or agrees to anything on its own.

What it reads, exactly

• Your email from the last 48 hours, and never fewer than your newest 25 messages, up to 100 at a time. If your inbox is busier than that, the app tells you how many messages it did not read rather than pretending it saw everything.
• Your calendar, 30 days ahead.
• It does not read older mail, other folders, or your archive. If something important is older than two days when you first connect, MyEA will not know about it.

What to expect in your first hour

• The first load takes a minute or two: it's reading and judging your recent mail for the first time. After that it works in the background and the app opens fast.
• You'll see five cards explaining the app, then a privacy screen. Both are once-only.
• Go to Settings and fill in the "About you" box. A few plain sentences: who you're looking after, whose messages must never be missed, what must never be agreed on your behalf. This is the single biggest thing you can do to make the app good. There's an example in the box to show the sort of thing.

Known limits, so you're not surprised

• It reads mail in the window above, nothing older.
• Replies are drafted for the top three messages that need you, not for everything.
• If an email claims something was done ("payment sent", "all settled"), MyEA treats that as the sender's claim, not a fact, and says so.
• If an email changes where money should be sent, MyEA flags it as possible fraud and tells you to verify by phone. It will look alarmed on purpose. Wire fraud is the one mistake nobody gets to undo.
• Times and dates show in your phone's own timezone. If anything looks shifted or lands on the wrong day, that's a bug we want to hear about.
• It's a beta. When something looks wrong, screenshot it and send it to Ken. The unflattering screenshots are the useful ones.

Privacy, plainly

Your mail and calendar are processed by Anthropic's Claude to produce your briefings and drafts. Your data is isolated to your account, never sold, never used for advertising, and deleted when your account is deleted. Your conversations with the assistant are stored so its accuracy can be audited. The full policy is in the app.
