Accessing schedule & tracking

To access these settings, go to:
Settings → Workspace → Schedule & tracking


Follow-up configuration

In this section, you define how many follow-up emails FirstQuadrant should prepare after a reply message and at what intervals. After approval these follow-ups are automatically scheduled and generated unless the contact responds earlier.

By default, FirstQuadrant creates three follow-up emails, spaced as follows:

  • 1st follow-up: 3 days after the first email is sent
  • 2nd follow-up: 5 days after the first follow-up (i.e., on day 8)
  • 3rd follow-up: 8 days after the second follow-up (i.e., on day 16)

This setup creates a gradually increasing delay between emails—also known as a progressive cadence—designed to reduce fatigue while maintaining engagement.

The default recipe is used by FirstQuadrant when dynamically generating email replies. You can easily tailor this:

  • Add a new follow-up by clicking the + Add follow-up button and specifying the interval after the previous message
  • Delete a follow-up by clicking the delete icon next to any listed follow-up

You can customize as many follow-up steps as you want. These settings ensure that follow-ups are spaced intentionally and adaptively without needing to manually build sequences each time.

Info: If you want to change the content or tone of the follow-up emails generated by FirstQuadrant, you can do so by creating a general fine-tuning rule in the Fine-tuning settings. These rules let you guide how the AI composes responses for your entire workspace.


Sending schedule

The sending schedule determines the days and times during which FirstQuadrant is allowed to send emails.

  • By default, emails are sent based on the time zone of the recipient.
  • You can override this and choose a specific time zone manually from the dropdown.

For each weekday, you can define active sending hours (e.g., 08:00–20:00). This is useful for:

  • Respecting working hours across geographies
  • Avoiding off-hour or weekend sends during bulk outreach

Email tracking

At the bottom of the settings page, you can manage email tracking options:

  • Open tracking: Tracks estimated email opens by injecting a tracking pixel
  • Click tracking: Tracks when recipients click on links within the emails

Important note:
To preserve deliverability, FirstQuadrant does not inject tracking pixels into every email. Instead, it samples a subset of emails to estimate open and click rates. You will not see per-email open or click data, but you will see aggregate tracking statistics at the campaign or input level.
