In short

How do I automatically follow up with clients who have not sent their tax resolution documents?

Every Monday, WebRun opens Canopy and finds every document request unanswered for more than five days. It drafts a polite follow-up email in Gmail for each overdue client - naming the specific missing documents - then posts a chase summary to Slack. Nothing is sent until your team reviews and approves each draft.

  • Overdue document requests surfaced and drafted for follow-up every Monday
  • No client email sent without manager review and approval
  • Cases keep moving instead of stalling on missing paperwork

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it send emails to clients automatically?

No. Every follow-up email is saved as a Gmail draft for your review. Nothing is sent until a case manager opens the draft and clicks send.

How does it know which documents are still missing?

It reads the open document request items in Canopy's client portal, so it knows exactly which files each client was asked for and which are still outstanding.

Can I adjust the overdue threshold beyond 5 days?

Yes. Tell WebRun the number of days that counts as overdue for your firm and it will apply that threshold on every run.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
