Changelog

Inbox

Reply drafts and Auto-reply

• Ori drafts replies using your business information, saved resources, and the conversation so far.
• Review, edit, or send the draft from your Inbox.
• Missing a price, file, or other detail? Ori highlights what it needs instead of inventing an answer.
• Turn on Auto-reply to send eligible replies automatically. Anything requiring your input or review stays as a draft.
• Edit a queued reply to take over before it sends.
• Add your booking link during setup. Calendly, Cal.com, and other booking links are supported.

How to use it: Keep business context and resources accurate before enabling automatic replies. Review drafts that are missing information.

Autopilot

Answers and materials you can reuse

• Ori can learn reusable information from the replies you send, including pricing, decks, one-pagers, and links.
• Saved resources help answer the next prospect who asks a similar question.
• A notification shows when something is saved and lets you undo it.
• Add and edit resources yourself under Autopilot → Context → Resources.
• Put reply-handling instructions in the Auto-reply card in Context.

How to use it: Save your actual materials and answer policies so future replies use approved information.

Messaging

LinkedIn voice notes in your own voice

• Add a voice note as a campaign sequence step.
• Recorded notes use one recording for everyone.
• AI-generated notes use an AI voice created from your recording to write and speak a personalized note for each prospect.
• Listen to an individual prospect’s note before it sends.
• Voice notes require a LinkedIn connection with the recipient, just like regular DMs.
• Set up the AI voice on your persona under Senders, then add the voice-note step to your campaign.

How to use it: Use voice notes for existing LinkedIn connections or after an invitation is accepted.

Messaging

Personalized videos, screenshots, and attachments

• Generate an AI video for each prospect using your sender’s AI voice and a video avatar created from a photo.
• AI video requires both an AI voice and a video avatar.
• Include a screenshot of the prospect’s company website in campaign messages.
• Regular uploaded attachments remain available alongside generated media.
• Choose Generate beside Attach in the message template editor.
• Generated media uses credits. Review the generation cost before proceeding.

How to use it: Set up the sender assets first, then preview generated media for a prospect before using it in outreach.

Integrations

Track meetings from your campaigns

• Connect Google Calendar under Settings → Integrations → Track meetings.
• Fold Talk matches calendar bookings to people you have emailed.
• A Meetings count appears on campaigns, and the booking appears in the Inbox conversation.
• New matched bookings can trigger your configured reply alerts.
• The calendar connection is separate from your sending-account connection.
• Matching relies on the prospect’s email address. LinkedIn-only contacts and bookings made with another address may not be picked up.

How to use it: Use matched meetings alongside replies to evaluate campaigns; an unmatched booking does not mean no meeting occurred.

Sourcing

Find buyers actively posting about your topic

• A new Autopilot campaign type finds relevant buyers who posted on LinkedIn about their work in the last seven days.
• The campaign can engage with the exact post that surfaced the person before reaching out.
• A connected LinkedIn sender is required.

How to use it: Use recent posts as the reason for timely outreach when the author fits your target audience.

Inbox

A clearer next action in your Inbox

• Email and LinkedIn messages appear together in one conversation per person.
• Needs reply surfaces conversations waiting on you, including drafts with missing information.
• Urgency markers and reminders help surface unanswered leads.
• Mark a conversation Done, or reopen it when there is more to do.
• Improved reply classification keeps objections and “not now” conversations visible for follow-up.

Autopilot

Campaign and spending controls

• Set or adjust Daily budget from Autopilot. The card displays the current limit or No limit.
• Pausing Autopilot leaves lead refills running on campaigns you manage yourself.
• Template changes on launched campaigns show the affected people and rewrite cost before confirmation.
• Failed message steps explain the problem more clearly and offer Retry and Skip actions.
• Lists built in chat appear on the Lists page so you can find them again.

How to use it: Check the daily budget and confirmation details before approving a purchase or rewriting unsent messages.

Senders

Invite teammates to connect their accounts

• Send a connection invitation link so a teammate can connect their own LinkedIn or email account.
• The teammate does not need an Fold Talk login to complete that connection flow.

Senders

Move eligible Fold Talk-mail domains to Gmail

• Eligible domains can move to Gmail from domain settings.
• The confirmation shows the price, sending pause, and warmup requirements before you proceed.

How to use it: Check eligibility and the expected interruption before approving a migration.

API / MCP

Autopilot API and MCP access

• Connect your own tools to read Autopilot status, plays, activity, pending work, approvals, and budget information.
• Supported write operations include individual-play controls, approvals, knowledge updates, and budget changes with the appropriate scopes.
• Use scoped access and Autopilot webhooks to control access and respond to events.
• The hosted Autopilot MCP endpoint is https://foldtalk.com/mcp/autopilot; the HTTP API is /api/autopilot/v1.
• Create appropriately scoped access under Settings → Developers. The Autopilot API requires a paid plan and organization-level access; project-bound keys are not supported.
• Turning Autopilot on/off or pausing/resuming Autopilot as a whole remains in the app. Changing a play’s targeting also remains app-only; do not assume every UI action has an API equivalent.

How to use it: Give an external agent only the access it needs. Reading this changelog does not authorize sending messages or spending credits.

Inbox

Introducing Auto-reply

• Auto-reply was announced for positive replies from your connected account, with straightforward answers based on business context.
• Booking links let prospects choose a time. The launch supported available-time suggestions for Calendly and Cal.com in email, with other providers used as links.
• The launch left pricing, proposals, objections, and questions it could not answer for you, with configured alerts.
• The original setup was Settings → Notifications → General → Auto-reply → Add your booking link.
• The same newsletter recapped the October 9 audiences and campaign controls; those are documented in the October 9 entry.

How to use it: Use the October 28 entry for the newer resource-aware drafting, missing-information handling, and queued-reply controls.

Sourcing

Profile viewers, shared backgrounds, and industry voices

• LinkedIn profile viewers: reach identifiable people who recently viewed your profile. Requires a connected LinkedIn Premium account; anonymous visits are excluded.
• Shared backgrounds: find buyers who attended your school, worked at a former employer, or share an accelerator or program with your company.
• Fold Talk checks audience fit and whether there are enough matching people to build a shared-background campaign.
• Industry voices: find buyers engaging with relevant people in your industry, alongside topic-based post-engager campaigns.

Autopilot

Change plays from one conversation

• Use Ask Fold Talk about your plays at the bottom of Autopilot to change draft targeting, revise messaging, or remove someone from a sample.
• Fold Talk checks whether the change is relevant to other campaigns and asks whether to apply it there or use it for future campaigns.
• Message edits on running campaigns include confirmation of how many unsent messages would be rewritten.

How to use it: Describe the desired change and review its proposed scope before applying it across campaigns.

Autopilot

Approve the people you contact

• LinkedIn network campaigns wait for individual-person approval before messaging.
• Open Review, inspect each person and their messages, keep the desired people selected, and choose Start sending.
• People you deselect are added to your never-contact list.
• Campaigns using the new sourcing system show people, sources, example messages, and price per person together.

• Stopped sequences no longer incorrectly display messages as Scheduled.
• Sequences stopped by your manual message can be resumed where eligible.

Senders

More reliable sending and lead refills

• LinkedIn campaigns can continue for people without email addresses by skipping their email steps.
• A disconnected or busy LinkedIn sender no longer unnecessarily blocks email in the same campaign.
• Removed senders no longer receive new sequence assignments.
• A simple LinkedIn connection greeting no longer automatically ends a sequence.
• Stronger exclusion checks before lead purchases and fixes preventing rejected review samples from being contacted.
• Held campaigns no longer prevent Autopilot from building the next campaign.

Sourcing

Four warm lead sources

• Former customers: connect Stripe with a read-only key to build campaigns for former subscribers.
• LinkedIn post engagers: find potential buyers commenting on or reacting to posts about the problems you solve.
• Use Improve Autopilot to connect sources, inspect setup progress, or stop a campaign build.

Integrations

Your website as a lead source

Messaging

• Ask the agent to use your saved template instead of recreating a sequence.
• Writing guidance distinguishes existing connections, former customers, and people engaging with relevant posts.

Senders

Manage senders by person

• Senders groups accounts under the person they send as.
• Move accounts between personas and manage names and photos.
• Campaign Settings lets you choose behavior when a person has email but no LinkedIn account, or the reverse.

Autopilot

Refills, replies, and exclusions

• Autopilot was introduced with performance-based campaign stopping and new campaign creation.
• Review campaign status, pending work, sending settings, and budget in Autopilot as you use it.

How to use it: Keep business context, exclusions, and budget settings current; ongoing sourcing means a campaign is not limited to its first batch.

Autopilot

Proposed plays with visible assumptions

• The agent reads your website and profile and proposes a complete play up front.
• Assumed settings are shown so you can correct them together.
• Suggested plays arrive as drafts with leads, copy, and senders prepared for review.

Sourcing

Review sample leads and pricing

• The announced play-building flow moved lead-spend approval to sample acceptance.
• Review the sample and displayed price before approving the purchase.
• This historical change is specific to the lead-review flow. Other paid actions, including generated media and message rewrites, can use credits.

How to use it: Use the price and confirmation shown for the action you are taking; do not assume every operation is free.

Autopilot

Targeting and feedback stay with the play

• Targeting rules and rejection feedback live in the play rather than only in a chat transcript.
• Rejecting a sample lead informs the play’s targeting rules.
• Cloning a play carries its rules into the copy.

Autopilot

Fold Talk 1.3 and clearer campaign holds

Content

Content mode v2: Review and Discover

• Review suggests and drafts posts for X, LinkedIn, and Instagram using relevant trending content.
• Discover helps find more viral content in your niche.
• Work with the agent to iterate on drafts.
• Content mode was announced as plan-restricted; check current plan access rather than relying on the historical price threshold.

Messaging

Comments and reactions as sequence steps

• Campaigns can comment on and react to a prospect’s own LinkedIn posts.
• Engagement steps do not require a connection, so they can precede an invitation.

• Do-not-contact matching was expanded across people and company identifiers, including email, phone, LinkedIn URL, name, domain, and supported attributes.
• Normalized identifiers improve matching across search, enrichment, and LinkedIn engagement.
• Use your organization’s exclusion controls and permissions; this does not grant access to another organization’s exclusions.

Messaging

Problem-led outreach

• Writing guidance moved away from profile-recap openers toward specific problems and useful offers.
• Subject lines focus on the problem rather than repeating the reader’s job title.
• This release also revised connection-note guidance. October 9 later changed connection requests to stay blank by default unless there is a meaningful shared connection.
