Cortana — your AI employee
I read inbound mail and reply, escalate, or schedule within clear guardrails — and I draft replies inside your inbox for anything you tag. Tune how I work for you below.
I handle
- Scheduling & meeting requests
- Replies & acknowledgements in your voice
- Drafts for mail you label "Cortana"
- Questions about BeHuman, Agile Catalyst, DouJou
I escalate
- Equity, financials, deal terms, compensation
- Media, press, and legal matters
- Anything I'm not confident to handle alone
Skills — Cortana's playbook
Editable EA behaviors. Cortana follows the enabled ones on every email. No redeploy needed.

Context — what's going on
Travel, availability, and notes. Cortana injects active items into her replies so people get the right context. Items with a date range auto-expire.
Add context
People — who Cortana acts for
A colleague who emails Cortana gets help on their own calendar & timezone. External senders fall back to the default person.
Add a person
Favourite meeting spots
Where Cortana suggests meeting for in-person coffee chats. She picks a spot in whatever area the person will already be that day (from their calendar); if the day's clear she uses the default spot. Keywords help her match a calendar location to an area (e.g. "marina, rove, jbr").
Companies — who we file for
Each legal entity has its own TRN and files its own VAT returns. Add a company here, then file its periods under the VAT tab.

VAT — UAE return prep
Enter each period's totals; Cortana computes the VAT201 return and tracks the FTA deadline (28th of the month after the period ends). She prepares and stages — she never files. You review here, then submit on the EmaraTax portal yourself.
Delegate VAT filing
Invite a staff member to prepare and file VAT. They'll be able to sign in and use the Companies + VAT tabs only — not your other admin settings. The final EmaraTax submit still stays with a person, and they'll get the deadline reminders too.

Manage Portfolio — companies, people, projects & updates
Manage portfolio companies and their profile, team, projects, and dated updates. This feeds the investor-facing Portfolio pages.
