Loop Desk is an always-on business workspace that takes incoming signal (email, forms, feeds, notes) and turns it into briefs, watch items, and next actions.

Does Loop Desk send emails on my behalf?

Loop Desk can draft responses, but nothing sends until you approve and explicitly trigger it. The approval boundary is fundamental.

What signal sources does Loop Desk support?

Email, RSS/Atom feeds, form submissions, manual notes, and webhooks. The desk treats all sources equally in its processing loop.
