AI agent for receptionists

Package and Mail Log Agent

Make sure every delivery is logged, the right person is told and nothing sits uncollected.

Package and Mail Log Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A courier drops off eleven parcels before lunch, and by Friday some are still on the shelf because the recipients never knew. This agent logs each delivery from your entry or a photo of the label, with carrier, tracking number and addressee. It matches the name to the staff directory and drafts a notice to the recipient. After approval it sends the notice and starts a timer. It then tracks pickup. If a package is not collected after the set time, it sends a reminder. If it is still there after a longer period, it flags it. It also checks the log against expected deliveries from purchase orders, so missing items are noticed early. The receptionist approves returns and disposal. Edge case: the name matches two people, so the agent asks before sending.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It matches the addressee to the directory by name and team. If two or more people match, or none, it asks the receptionist before sending anything.

  • Send a reminder after 2 working days and flag after 7
  • Ask before sending when two people have the same name
  • Mark perishable or high-value items for same-day notice
  • List expected deliveries not received after 3 days

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Receptionist approves notices that need a choice of recipient
  • Receptionist approves returns and disposal

Hard limits

It stops when

  • Done: package collected and logged
  • Stop: the recipient has left the company, so the receptionist decides

An example run

What happensEleven parcels arrive. The agent logs all of them and matches nine names. One label says Chris Lee, which matches two people, so it asks. Another recipient is on leave, so the receptionist chooses a colleague as backup. After two days, 3 packages are still on the shelf, and the agent sends reminders. After 7 days, one remains, and the receptionist approves a return to the sender.
