CLAFTS (Claude Draft For The Sales team) is an internal AI email assistant tool developed by Jared Sires at Anthropic to automate the generation of contextually informed customer emails for go-to-market (GTM) engineering workflows.
Purpose and Origins
Jared Sires built CLAFTS specifically to address the time burden of drafting customer-facing emails, describing it as a tool to "help me build solutions around generating emails to customers." → The tool is part of a broader AI Email Assistant workflow designed for account executives and sales teams at Anthropic.
Technical Architecture
CLAFTS is built on top of the Claude API, which powers its drafting capabilities behind the scenes. → For Context Retrieval, it integrates with Google Docs to pull in relevant organizational or customer knowledge when generating replies. → → This context-grounded approach allows the tool to produce replies that reflect account-specific information rather than generic outputs.
Reported Impact
Sires reports that CLAFTS saves him "at least 2–3 hours a day for answering emails," → suggesting substantial productivity gains for account executives handling high volumes of customer correspondence.
