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.

Will Loop Desk know my education / tutoring business on day 1?

Yes — the Education / tutoring onboarding template pre-loads 4 memory entries (brand voice, decision rules, red-flag lessons specific to education / tutoring) and 1 sample signal so the first AI cycle has substance instead of staring at an empty queue.

What gets pre-loaded with the Education / tutoring template?

The template seeds your workspace with industry-specific memory entries (preferences and lessons covering brand voice, decision rules, red-flag thresholds, and operator preferences specific to education / tutoring) plus at least one sample signal so the first cycle produces real AI output. Every entry is editable or deletable from the dashboard memory panel.

Can I edit or delete the pre-loaded entries?

Yes — every memory entry and sample signal seeded from the template is fully editable from the dashboard memory and signal panels. Nothing is permanent. The template is just a starting point that saves your team the week-2 teaching cost of explaining your business to the desk from scratch.

What if I don't want to use a template?

Pick the "Other / custom" template at signup and skip the preset entirely. You can teach the desk manually from the dashboard via the "Teach the desk" form, or let it accumulate context organically across the first dozen cycles. The templates are an acceleration, not a requirement.

How does Loop Desk's pricing compare to per-cycle AI tools for education / tutoring?

Loop Desk uses a flat-fee subscription model regardless of cycle count, distinct from competitors like Notion Custom Agents (which moved to $10/1,000 cycle credits in May 2026) or HubSpot Breeze (which uses outcome-based pricing at $0.50/resolved conversation). For education / tutoring businesses where AI cycle volume is unpredictable, the flat-fee model with optional daily cost caps eliminates budget anxiety from variable AI billing.

When did the Education / tutoring template ship?

The Education / tutoring onboarding template shipped in rev 167 on 2026-05-07 as part of Loop Desk's public release cadence. We add new vertical templates regularly — see the Loop Desk changelog for the full release history, and the roadmap for verticals planned next.

What gets pre-loaded

preferenceimportance 9/10
Parent / student communication — concrete, never coded
All parent- and student-facing communication (progress updates, behaviour notes, schedule changes) leads with the concrete fact and avoids softening language that obscures what happened. 'Sam is struggling with fractions' beats 'Sam is on a learning journey'. Coded language erodes trust the moment the parent compares notes with another family.
preferenceimportance 8/10
Attendance threshold — flag at 3 absences in 30 days
Three absences (excused or unexcused) inside any 30-day rolling window is a retention red flag regardless of grade or engagement. Surface a check-in watch item — not a punishment, a parent-facing 'we noticed, is everything okay?' touch — before the family forms an opinion silently.
lessonimportance 8/10
Renewal red flag — 60 days before term end
Tutoring engagements and term-based programmes that hit 60 days from end without a renewal conversation churn at 2× baseline. Surface a renewal-prep watch item the moment an engagement crosses that threshold; last-minute renewal asks are read as transactional, not as relationship.
lessonimportance 7/10
Outcome communication — share a concrete win monthly
Every active student or parent should receive a concrete progress win monthly — a specific concept mastered, a measurable improvement, an artefact (essay, project, score). Surface a watch item if any active student goes 30+ days without a documented win to share; absence of evidence is the silent driver of mid-term churn.

Sample signal seeded on day 1

feedbackpriority normal

Sample parent feedback — homework volume

A parent of a Year 8 student noted the homework load this week (4 hours weeknight average) felt unreasonable given other commitments. Worth flagging to the academic lead and surfacing a watch item if homework-load complaints recur from more than one family in a fortnight.

Pick this template at signup and your workspace lands with the brand voice, decision rules, and red-flag lessons above already taught — so the first cycle has substance. You can edit or delete every entry later. None of it is permanent.
