Questions, answered
Will it email clients about renewal without me?
No. Every renewal reminder is saved as a Gmail draft, never sent automatically. You review and send each one, since renewal requirements can vary by jurisdiction.
How far ahead does it look?
Thirty days by default, so there's time to renew before a lapse forces a full refiling. You can widen that window for jurisdictions with longer renewal processes.
What happens if a permit already lapsed?
It's flagged separately in the Slack digest and the draft notes that the client needs a new filing, not a renewal, since a lapsed permit is a different process.
