look task generation
Support AkiFlow task creation in the New Outlook Desktop reply experience. When reading an email, the AkiFlow button is available on the main Outlook ribbon and a task can be created from the email, but once Reply is clicked and a response is being composed, AkiFlow is no longer available. Many actionable tasks become apparent while composing a reply rather than while initially reading the email.
Real examples:
Example 1: Country Operations
An email from a country optical manager requests guidance on pricing. While drafting the response, the need arises to:
Review pricing data
Meet with the buyer
Check margin implications
This is exactly when an AkiFlow task should be created, but the integration is no longer visible.
Example 2: Supplier Follow-up
Replying to a supplier asking for updated quotations, while composing the reply the immediate need is to create:
Follow up on supplier quote in 7 days
This is a natural workflow moment for task creation.
Example 3: Executive Delegation
Replying to a direct report:
Please send me the updated sales recovery plan by Friday.
At the moment the reply is sent, a task should be created:
Review sales recovery plan on Friday
Again, AkiFlow is unavailable in the reply experience.
Suggested enhancement: support AkiFlow task creation in:
Inline replies within New Outlook Desktop
Reply All
Forward
Pop-out reply windows
New email compose windows
A particularly valuable feature would be a "Reply and Create Task" flow:
User clicks "Reply and Create Task"
AkiFlow automatically captures:
Email subject
Email link
Sender
Conversation thread
User assigns due date
Email can optionally be archived automatically
For users processing large volumes of email, this would significantly improve task capture and reduce workflow friction.
