Ravenclerk / For businesses

Ravenclerk for businesses

Your shared inboxes, sorted before anyone opens them.

Ravenclerk reads every email in info@, sales@, support@ and accounts@. It sends each one to the right person, team or system, holds back suspected payment fraud and phishing, and puts urgent and VIP emails at the top.

No new inbox for your team to learn. Priced per mailbox, not per seat. Built for UK GDPR.

01 · The problem

Shared inboxes belong to everyone, so nobody owns them

New leads, support requests, supplier invoices, CVs, complaints and legal letters all land in the same few addresses. Someone has to read each one and pass it on, or it waits until someone notices.

Slow replies lose sales. A missed complaint gets worse. And the person clearing the inbox is often the one most exposed to a convincing fraud email.

  • Emails are missed, or answered twice, because ownership is unclear.
  • New leads wait hours for a reply while someone sorts the inbox.
  • Invoices, statements and bank-detail changes mix with everything else.
  • Outlook rules break when people or products change, and nobody can see why an email went where it did.
  • Full helpdesk platforms charge per seat and ask everyone to learn a new tool.

02 · What it routes

A ready-made business template, ready to tailor

Start with these categories, then rename, add or remove them so they match your teams.

Sales

Leads and quotes

Send new enquiries to the right salesperson by product, region or rota, or log them in your CRM's email address.

Support

Customer support

Forward to your Zendesk, Freshdesk or Help Scout address, or straight to a specialist, with the category and priority in the subject.

Accounts

Invoices and remittances

Clean supplier invoices go to your accounts inbox, Xero or Dext. Statements and credit-control replies go to the right person.

Complaints

Complaints and escalations

Unhappy customers, chargeback threats and regulator mentions go to a senior handler, not into a general queue.

People

Recruitment and HR

CVs go to the hiring manager. Sickness, grievances and references go to HR only, with minimal logging.

Legal

Legal and data requests

Letters before action, contracts and subject access requests go to the right person, so statutory deadlines aren't missed.

Partners

Suppliers and partners

Recognise known domains and send them to the account owner automatically.

Noise

Spam and newsletters

Marketing, cold outreach and auto-replies are filtered out, so they don't reach staff.

03 · Fraud and phishing

Suspicious payment requests are held, not forwarded

Invoice fraud often starts with an intercepted or spoofed email. Ravenclerk already reads every email, so it can spot the warning signs at the moment an email would otherwise reach your accounts team.

  • Bank-detail and payee changesRequests to change bank details, add a new payee or pay "just this once" to a different account are flagged and sent to a named finance approver.
  • Lookalike and spoofed sendersUnfamiliar or lookalike domains, mismatched reply-to addresses and display-name tricks are flagged as suspicious.
  • Urgency and secrecyPressure such as "urgent, keep this between us" alongside a payment or gift-card request raises the risk score.
  • A reminder to verifyFlagged emails carry a clear note to confirm any change using contact details you already hold, as the NCSC recommends.

Ravenclerk adds a check at the point of routing. It doesn't replace your email security or your payment approval process. See the NCSC's business payment fraud guidance.

04 · Urgency and VIPs

The right emails jump the queue

Ravenclerk scores every email for urgency and checks who it's from before deciding where it goes.

Urgency detection

Outages, deadlines, "final notice", legal language and repeat chasers are recognised and marked high priority when forwarded.

VIP senders

Keep a list of key accounts, domains and people. Their emails go to a named owner, whatever they're about.

Tone and sentiment

Frustrated or at-risk customers go to an experienced handler, so the reply gets the care it needs.

Out of hours

Set your opening hours. Urgent emails outside them go to an on-call person, and the rest wait until the morning.

Response targets

Set a target reply time for each category. Ravenclerk can flag emails that are close to missing it.

Approved acknowledgements

Optional confirmation replies, such as "We've received your invoice", using only the wording you approve. Never sent for anything sensitive.

05 · Customise

Your categories, your rules, your thresholds

Custom categories

Name your own categories and describe them in plain English, for example "Wholesale enquiries: trade customers asking for bulk pricing". Ravenclerk uses your wording.

Rules on top of AI

Route by sender, domain, keyword, attachment, mailbox or time. Fixed rules, such as "anything from @bigclient.co.uk goes to Sam", run before the AI.

Confidence thresholds

Choose how sure Ravenclerk must be for each category before it forwards on its own. Below that, a person decides.

Sensitive-topic handling

Mark payment changes, HR, medical or legal emails as sensitive. Choose who receives them and how little is logged.

Several mailboxes

Connect info@, sales@ and accounts@, each with its own categories and rules.

Cover and rotas

Share leads across a sales team in turn, and redirect routes when someone is on holiday.

08 · UK GDPR

Built for UK data protection

You're the controller

Ravenclerk acts as your data processor under a written Data Processing Agreement, as UK GDPR Article 28 requires.

Minimal, short-lived data

Email content is processed in memory, not stored. Routing records are kept for a period you set, then deleted.

Clear on where data goes

We'll tell you where processing happens, including by our AI provider, and which safeguards apply to any transfer outside the UK.
