"AI Chief of Staff" is a workflow pattern, sometimes called a chief of staff skill, rather than a single packaged product from a known vendor. As described by Matt Wolfe in a video on building an AI operating system, it runs on a schedule twice a day. It reads the user's email, calendar and Slack, then produces a numbered list of actions.
The user replies with the numbers of the actions to take, and the agent drafts the corresponding emails without sending them, so a human reviews each one. In the video, Wolfe builds a simple version as a scheduled task running in the cloud.
No official site, documentation, repository or pricing was available, so the underlying platform, cost and licensing are unknown. Anyone building it would need to connect their own email, calendar and Slack accounts to an agent platform that supports scheduled tasks.
