Automated Hey Reply Later Tracking

Every afternoon, WebRun opens Hey, walks your Reply Later and Set Aside stacks, works out how long each thread has been sitting there and who is waiting, posts an ageing list to your Telegram channel, and shares the items older than your limit with the team in Microsoft Teams so someone picks them up.

In short

How do I stop my Reply Later email stack from piling up?

WebRun reviews your Hey Reply Later and Set Aside stacks every afternoon, capturing each thread's sender, age, and what the person is actually asking for. It posts an ageing list to your Telegram channel and shares anything past your limit with the team in Microsoft Teams, so promised replies stop quietly piling up.

  • Every promised reply carries a visible age
  • Threads past your limit get a suggested owner on the team
  • Empty stacks produce no message, so a ping always means work

Step by step

What does WebRun do on every run?

The exact actions WebRun takes, in order - in plain language, so you can adjust anything.

  1. WebRun signs in and gets to work

    • For each thread, capture the sender, the subject, and how many days it has been sitting there
    • Summarise in one line what the sender is actually asking for

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it reply to any of these emails?

No. WebRun reads your Reply Later and Set Aside stacks and reports what is waiting. It never writes a reply, sends an email, archives a thread, or moves anything out of a stack.

Does it paste my emails into Teams?

No. It shares the sender, the subject, a one-line summary of the ask, and how long it has waited. Message bodies stay in Hey and are never copied into a channel.

Can I change what counts as overdue?

Yes. You set the limit at setup, commonly five days. Threads under it appear only in your private Telegram list, and only threads past it are shared with the team.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
