The operational grind, handled in minutes
Invoices. Payment reminders. Vendor emails. Attachments. The stuff that keeps your business running but eats hours every week. One blitz session and your AI knocks it all out.
This is where AI really shines
Operational email isn't emotionally draining — it's just tedious. The same invoice format every time. The same payment reminder wording. The same vendor follow-ups.
This is exactly what AI is good at. Repetitive, structured tasks that follow patterns. You show it once, it handles it forever.
Run pontius blitz and tell your AI to handle operations. Invoice this client. Send that attachment. Chase this payment. Move billing noise to folders. It just... does it.
Built-in invoicing
Generate and send invoices in one command
No switching to accounting software. No exporting PDFs and attaching them manually. One command: invoice created, branded, sent.

One command, and your AI takes over
Run pontius blitz and your AI gets a system prompt with everything it needs to handle your inbox.
What your AI sees:
→ Full command reference (list, read, reply, send, archive, move...)
→ Knowledge base location and structure
→ Workflow guidelines (categorize → batch → draft → send)
→ Mode selection: Stabilizers (learning) or Auto (autonomous)
AI triages your inbox
Lists emails, categorizes them: noise to archive, operational stuff to handle, things that need your input.
Batches questions
Instead of asking one thing at a time, it gathers everything it needs: “Should I invoice these 3 clients? What amount for each?”
Executes operations
Generates invoices, sends attachments, moves billing to folders, archives noise, sends payment reminders — all in one session.
Updates knowledge base
New vendor? Added to contacts. New invoice pattern? Learned. Next time, it'll handle similar situations automatically.
A real operations blitz
What used to take an hour of context-switching, done in 5 minutes.
$ pontius blitz
# AI receives system prompt with all commands and guidelines
You: "Handle my operations inbox. Stabilizers on."
AI: I'll triage your operations inbox. Let me check what's there.
$ pontius list --folder "Operations"
UID FROM SUBJECT
38201 [email protected] Re: Q1 order confirmation
38202 [email protected] Can you send the January invoice?
38203 [email protected] Your payout is on the way
38204 [email protected] Receipt for software subscription
38205 [email protected] Need the proposal PDF again
AI: Here's what I found:
- 38203, 38204: Billing notifications → archive or move to Billing?
- 38202: Client requesting invoice → generate and send?
- 38205: Client needs proposal attachment → resend?
- 38201: Vendor confirmation → archive after reading?
You: "Move billing to Billing folder. Invoice BigCorp $8500 for
consulting. Resend proposal to startup.io. Archive vendor."
$ pontius move 38203,38204 "Billing"
Moved 2 emails to Billing.
$ pontius invoice [email protected] "Consulting - January" 8500 --send
Invoice #5685 generated and sent.
$ pontius send [email protected] "Proposal - as requested" \
"Hi, here's the proposal again as requested." \
--attach ~/Documents/startup-proposal.pdf
Sent with attachment.
$ pontius archive 38201
Archived.
AI: Done. 5 operations handled. Knowledge base updated with
BigCorp contact and invoice pattern.The compounding effect
Every session makes the next one faster
This is what makes Pontius different from AI tools that start fresh every time. The knowledge base persists and grows.
Week 1: Learning
AI asks questions. “Should I invoice BigCorp? What's the amount?” You answer, it executes, and it saves the pattern. BigCorp = consulting client, typical invoice $8,500.
Week 2: Faster
BigCorp emails again. AI already knows: “BigCorp requesting work — invoice for $8,500?” One confirmation, done. New vendor appears — learned for next time.
Week 4: Nearly autonomous
AI knows your vendors, your invoice patterns, your billing folder rules. Most operational emails get handled without questions. You just review the summary.
Month 2: It knows your operations better than you do
“It's the 15th — time to invoice the retainer clients.” “Vendor X usually confirms within 2 days, should I follow up?” The knowledge compounds until the AI is genuinely running your operational email with minimal oversight.
Unlike AI tools that reset to zero with every conversation, Pontius remembers. Every correction teaches it. Every pattern gets saved. The more you use it, the better it gets.
