The three building blocks
The whole system is built around three concepts you configure yourself:Categories
Define the buckets replies fall into. Give each one a name and a plain-English prompt describing how Mary should recognize it.
Data Extraction
Tell Mary which fields to pull from emails in a given category — replacement contacts, return dates, new email addresses, and more.
Actions
Configure what happens automatically after classification — syncing Marketo fields, adding to static lists, and more.
How an email gets processed
When a reply hits your inbox, here’s exactly what happens:1
Email arrives
The reply lands in your dedicated allGood inbox address (e.g.,
8IEJ8ZOP@parse.allgoodhq.app). Every message sent to this address is automatically picked up and queued for processing.2
Mary classifies the email
Mary reads the full email — subject line, body, and metadata — and compares it against the categories you’ve defined. She picks the best match based on the description you wrote for each category.

4
Data is extracted (if configured)
If you’ve set up data extraction for that category, Mary pulls specific pieces of information out of the email — for example, a replacement contact’s name and email address from a “Left Company” auto-reply.
