Assign conversations to teammates
Email or text Carly to assign a Missive conversation to the right person. She handles the assignment and notification so you don't need to open the app to delegate.
Send replies across channels
Tell Carly to reply to a conversation in Missive and she sends the response through the correct channel — email, SMS, or social — without you switching between them.
Check shared inbox status

Send messages to teammates
Need to message a colleague in Missive? Tell Carly what to say and who to send it to. She posts the message in the right conversation or channel.
Why teams are using AI to manage Missive
Missive brings email, SMS, social media messaging, and team chat into a single collaborative inbox. It's powerful for teams that handle customer communication across multiple channels — but that consolidation also means there's a lot to keep up with. Shared inboxes fill up, conversations need to be assigned to the right person, messages need responses across channels, and threads need to be organized.
For team leads and operators managing a Missive workspace, the overhead isn't in any single message — it's in the constant triage. Who's handling the support thread that came in through SMS? Did anyone respond to the Facebook message from this morning? What's sitting unassigned in the shared inbox? AI tools for Missive should handle this coordination work so the team can focus on actually responding to customers.
How Carly works as your AI Missive assistant
Carly connects to your Missive workspace through the API. Once linked, you manage your team's communication by emailing or texting Carly.
Need to assign a conversation? Email Carly: "Assign the Greenleaf thread in the support inbox to Marcus." She moves it in Missive and Marcus gets notified. Want to send a quick reply without opening Missive? Tell Carly: "Reply to the latest message from Nordic Labs — let them know we'll have the proposal ready by Wednesday." She sends the response through the right channel in Missive. Need a status check? Ask Carly how many unassigned conversations are in your shared inbox and she gives you a count with the oldest items.
Carly isn't a Missive plugin — she's a standalone assistant that works from outside the platform. She handles the triage and coordination tasks that eat into your team's time, so you can manage Missive without living inside it.
Who uses Carly with Missive
Customer support teams that use Missive to manage shared inboxes across email, SMS, and social channels.
