Chase e-signature completions with an email agent
Short summary
A tutorial for building an email agent using Nylas Agent Accounts that chases unsigned contracts by sending escalating in-thread follow-up reminders on a defined cadence. The agent owns a [email protected] address, tracks sequence state in your database, and stops nudging automatically when the signed copy arrives. The author frames this as replacing sticky-note reminders for sales teams juggling multiple open documents.
- •Agent sends escalating in-thread nudges on a schedule (day 3, 7, 14) until signature arrives
- •Sequence state lives in your database; Nylas handles mail transport and threading
- •Replaces manual follow-up for sales teams managing many open contracts simultaneously
