What it does

This workflow watches your commitment tracker for promises whose due date has lapsed. For each overdue item it posts a Slack alert and uses an LLM to draft a short, on-brand catch-up email to the original recipient, saving it as an Outlook draft for you to send. It closes the loop on dropped commitments.

When to use it

When the cost of a missed promise is a damaged relationship, not just a missed checkbox. Use it to catch slipping follow-ups early and recover them with minimal effort.

How it works

  1. 1A scheduled trigger runs each afternoon.
  2. 2The workflow reads open commitments from Notion and a logic step isolates those past due with no completion mark.
  3. 3For each overdue promise, an LLM drafts a concise apologetic catch-up email tailored to the recipient and the original promise.
  4. 4The draft is saved to your Outlook drafts folder so you can review and send it.
  5. 5A summary alert listing each overdue promise and its drafted reply is posted to Slack.
