Keyword auto-labels
Reply auto-labels that sort your inbox for you
Keyword auto-labels read the new text of each reply and tag it interested, negotiating, later, not interested or wrong person. Negative phrases are checked first, so "not interested" is never read as interested, and replies that match nothing stay unlabelled for you to judge.


Why it matters
Triage replies in seconds: interested, negotiating, later, not interested, wrong person.
Free keyword rules label replies automatically, with no paid AI. Negative phrases are checked first, so "not interested" never counts as interested. Labels: interested, not interested, negotiating (price, rates, sponsored...), later, wrong person.

Under the hood
How it works
Negative first
Rules like "not interested", "no thanks" and "remove me" run before positive ones to avoid false positives.
Negotiating catches prices
Words such as price, fee, rates, sponsored or a $ amount mark a reply as negotiating, the label link builders filter most.
No paid AI
Labels use keyword rules, so they are fast, free and predictable; change any label in one click.

Emails go out at a safe pace with rotation, warm-up, limits and DNS checks.

FAQ
Questions, answered
What happens to replies that match no rule?
They stay unlabelled so you read them yourself.
Does a label stop the sequence?
Any reply stops the sequence; the label only sorts it.
Which languages are supported?
Rules are English-first; check labels on replies in other languages.
Does it work with Gmail and Outlook mailboxes?
Yes. Pink Post works the same with Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook, Zoho, Hostinger and any SMTP/IMAP mailbox you connect.
Is keyword auto-labels on the free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes it; plans differ by mailboxes, prospects, emails per month, users and live link checks. Free has 1 mailbox and 300 emails a month, Solo $19 has 3 mailboxes, Pro $39 has 10 and Agency $129 has 30.
How is keyword auto-labels different from a cold email tool?
Cold email tools are designed for sales pipelines. In Pink Post every feature feeds a link deal: replies move deals, deals hold prices, and live links keep being checked, so the result of the campaign is a list of live links with their cost.
