Section-by-section reference
Templates
Templates are reusable SMS and email messages. Click New Template to create one, choosing:- Message type - SMS or Email (email templates have a preview).
- Conversation Context - New Conversation templates only show when there is no prior thread with the contact; Existing Conversation templates show once a thread exists.
- Body with merge fields such as , , , and more - placeholders are replaced with real values when the message is sent.
Voicemail
The voicemail greeting plays when an incoming call isn’t answered (or when you send a call to voicemail), and it is read aloud by an AI voice:- Pick the voice (male or female) and click Play preview to hear the current script.
- Edit the Voicemail message text, or click Reset to default to restore the standard script. Insert buttons add your company name and your ProPilot phone number into the script.
- Keep it short - callers hear it before the beep. Click Save voicemail to apply.
Email Forwarding
What this section shows depends on how your organization sends email. With a Gmail account connected, your emails send directly from your Gmail account, so mirror copies are not needed - Gmail already keeps every sent email in its own Sent folder, and replies arrive in your Gmail inbox. The section instead offers:- Default CC (visible to recipients) - addresses added as CC on every outbound email.
- Default BCC (hidden copies) - addresses added as a hidden copy on every outbound email. Use this to keep a copy in another mailbox. Copies are read-only: replying from that mailbox goes to your Gmail address, not to the person you emailed, and does not route through ProPilot.
- Propilot server options (mirror & routing) - the mirror settings described below, collapsed. They still apply to emails that send through ProPilot’s server, for example replies to older email threads that didn’t go through Gmail.
- Enter one or more Mailbox addresses (comma-separated). You cannot use your ProPilot sender subdomain here - it must be a real external mailbox.
- Toggle Inbound emails and Outbound emails independently to choose which direction gets copied.
- Each copy carries a special reply address so that replying from your mailbox routes back through ProPilot and keeps the conversation thread in sync. Use Reply, not Reply All - Reply All can send a duplicate without reaching the recipient through your branded sender.
Email Signature
Set the signature text appended to outbound emails, and optionally upload a signature image that is added in HTML emails. The sender address and domain themselves are configured in Email Setup.Proof of Funds
Upload your organization’s proof of funds document (PDF or image) so teammates can attach it to emails with one click using Attach POF. Keep the file under 1MB so attachments don’t fail. The section shows the current file with Download and Remove actions; only admins can upload or remove it.Operating Hours
A read-only view of the platform-managed sending window, displayed per weekday (Monday-Sunday) in your organization’s timezone. Outbound SMS and automated outreach send during these hours; if you try to send outside them, you are prompted to delay-send so the message goes out when the window opens. A Change org timezone link jumps to Organization > Timezone. See Operating Hours for the day-to-day behavior.Limits
A read-only view of the SMS compliance limits enforced for your organization: the Daily SMS limit, Hourly SMS limit, and Cooldown duration. These are enforced server-side; when a limit is reached, further SMS sends are blocked until the window resets.Used by

Why doesn't my template show when composing a message?
Check its Conversation Context. New Conversation templates only appear when there is no
prior thread with that contact; Existing Conversation templates only appear once a thread
exists.
Can I change the voicemail voice?
Can I change the voicemail voice?
Yes - admins pick between the male and female AI voice in the Voicemail section and can
preview the result with Play preview before saving.
Why was my forwarding address rejected?
Why was my forwarding address rejected?
Forwarding must point to a real external mailbox (for example Gmail or Outlook). Addresses on
your ProPilot sender subdomain are blocked because they would create a mail loop.
Why can't I send more SMS right now?
Why can't I send more SMS right now?
You may have hit the daily or hourly SMS limit shown in the Limits section, or you may be
outside Operating Hours. Limits are platform-enforced and reset
on their own schedule; outside operating hours you can schedule a delayed send instead.
Who can edit Communication settings?
Who can edit Communication settings?
Admins and the owner. Members can see the current values (and everyone can use templates when
composing), but editing voicemail, forwarding, signature, templates, and proof of funds
requires the admin role.
