Cold Email Reply Drafter

WHAT IT DOES

Cold Email Reply Drafter reads your cold email or outreach message—subject, sender, message body, and sender info—identifies the key ask or value proposition, then generates a professional reply draft. Choose your intent: Interested (express openness and enthusiasm), Ask Questions (ask 2-3 specific, relevant clarifying questions), Request More Info (ask for specific details), or Politely Decline (keep it brief and professional). Select your tone: Professional, Friendly, or Curious. Toggle a follow-up question on or off. The AI generates a complete, context-aware reply draft that matches your chosen intent and tone—saving you time and helping you respond to cold outreach more effectively.

WHERE IT RUNS

Any webpage with cold emails, outreach messages, or unsolicited correspondence—Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, LinkedIn messages, and more. The script scans the page for conversation context: subject lines, sender information, and message bodies. No site-specific configuration needed; the detection algorithm adapts to the page structure automatically.

HOW TO USE

Install the script and navigate to any cold email. Click "Generate Reply" in the panel—the tool extracts the email content and sends it to the AI. Choose your intent (Interested, Ask Questions, Request More Info, or Politely Decline). Select your tone (Professional, Friendly, or Curious). Toggle the follow-up question on or off. The draft appears in the panel. Review it, edit if needed, then click "Insert" to place it directly into your reply field, or "Copy" to paste elsewhere. Settings persist per site and globally—the tool remembers your intent, tone, and follow-up preferences. Keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+Shift+C to generate, Ctrl+Shift+R to regenerate, Ctrl+Shift+I to insert.

TECHNICAL MECHANISM

The script extracts email content using a cascading DOM selector strategy: it targets subject lines (h1[data-thread-perm-id], .hP, .subject), sender information (.gD, .go, [email]), and message bodies (.ii.gt, .a3s, .msg-body, [role="article"]). Collected text is concatenated with labels into a structured input. The AI prompt includes the full email content, intent (interested/questions/more_info/decline), tone (professional/friendly/curious), and follow-up toggle. Intent mapping guides the response structure: interested = express openness and enthusiasm; questions = ask 2-3 specific, relevant questions; more_info = request specific details; decline = polite, brief refusal. Tone mapping adjusts formality and warmth. The response is displayed in a textarea with Insert and Copy buttons. Reply insertion uses native value setting with both "input" and "change" events for React/Vue compatibility. The script prefers WebMCP (navigator.modelContext) when available, falling back to DOM scraping when not.

THE PANEL

The tool runs inside BGPanel, a lightweight UI system built into the BotGentz extension. Drag the panel by its header to reposition it anywhere on screen—it snaps to edges and remembers its position per site. Click the header to collapse the panel into a small bubble; click again to expand. Resize the panel by dragging its bottom-right corner. Press Escape at any time to close the panel. The panel stays out of your way but is always accessible via the extension's toolbar.

PLEASE NOTE

Requires the free BotGentz browser extension and an active monthly subscription—the AI backend uses credits for each generation. One generation per click; regenerate counts as a new generation. The script reads only what is visible on the page—it cannot access iframes or shadow DOM. AI-generated cold email replies are suggestions—always review and edit before sending. No email content is stored or shared beyond the API request; all processing is ephemeral. The tool's intent guides the AI's response direction but actual wording may vary—review the draft before use. Sites change their markup over time; if detection fails, check for updates or use the tool on a page with clearly visible cold email content.
