Run an enrollment agent from a school's admissions inbox

Short summary

Learn how to build an autonomous enrollment agent using Nylas Agent Accounts to triage school admissions inboxes at scale. The agent owns its own inbox identity, automatically classifying FAQ questions, verifying document submissions, and sending deadline reminders without human intervention. Tutorial covers account creation, webhook integration, signature verification, and the critical architectural boundary between mail handling (Nylas API) and application logic (your database).

  • Nylas Agent Accounts give autonomous agents their own email identity without OAuth complexity
  • Webhooks fire on inbound mail; your code handles classification and document verification
  • Free tier supports ~200 messages/day and 30-day retention; production uses custom domain

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
