What is Sales Sara?
Sales Sara is a Human-AI sales manager from Upbeater. She finds new leads that fit your ideal customer and contacts them for you on LinkedIn and by email: AI drafts the messages, a real person checks them, and you approve before anything is sent.
Do emails come from my domain or from Upbeater?
From yours. That is the point of connecting Gmail rather than sending through a bulk provider: the message comes from your real address with your existing sender reputation, and the reply thread lives in your mailbox.
Does Upbeater read my email?
Not in the way that phrase usually means. Sara does not browse or search your mailbox. To detect a reply she asks Google for a specific thread she already sent, and reads only the From headers on that thread to see whether a message arrived that wasn’t hers. Message bodies are never retrieved or stored.
Then why does Upbeater request a read permission at all?
Because Google’s permission model has no narrower option that still allows confirming a reply on a thread we sent. The gmail.readonly permission is what grants that check. We use a fraction of what it technically allows, and the list of things we never do is above.
What happens when a prospect replies?
The remaining steps in that sequence are cancelled, so no automated follow-up goes out after someone has answered. The conversation is then yours to continue in your own inbox.
Does a human see my outreach before it’s sent?
Yes. Upbeater’s Human-AI Managers pair AI drafting with human review: Sara’s output is reviewed by our experts before it reaches your prospects. Nothing is sent from your account unreviewed.
Can I revoke access?
Yes, at any time and without contacting us. Remove Upbeater from your Google Account’s third-party access settings. Sara stops sending immediately. You can also email us to disconnect and request deletion of stored Google data.
What Google data do you actually store?
The OAuth access and refresh tokens for your connected account, the address the account belongs to, and records of the messages Sara sent on your behalf, including the thread identifiers she needs in order to check those threads for replies. We do not store the contents of your Gmail messages.
How long is it kept?
Account data and service history are retained for the duration of your subscription and up to 24 months after cancellation, unless the law requires otherwise. You can request deletion at any time. See section 5 of our Privacy Policy.
Do you support Outlook or other email providers?
Sales Sara currently supports Gmail, and Outlook is coming soon. If you use a different provider, get in touch and we’ll tell you where things stand rather than guess.
How does this work under GDPR?
Upbeater AB is a Swedish company and handles personal data under GDPR. Where data is processed outside your country we use contractual safeguards such as EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Your access, correction, deletion and objection rights are set out in section 7 of our Privacy Policy.
