Product screenshot showing draft queues, review controls, and send states. Templates give Ergo reusable structure, language, and routing instructions for draft generation. They are one input into draft quality, not a replacement for review.

Who can use this

  • RevOps and managers standardizing follow-up style.
  • Reps who want reusable starting points for common emails.

Before you start

  • Decide which use case the template should cover.
  • Collect example language that is safe to reuse.
  • Decide which variables belong in the template.

Template parts

  • Name: the label users see.
  • Description: the routing guidance or purpose for the template.
  • Content: the reusable email body pattern.
  • Variables: placeholders that Ergo can fill from configured default or custom variables.
  • Type: email templates are separate from Slack templates.

What to expect

  • Templates can be created, edited, listed, and deleted.
  • Template changes affect future draft generation; they do not rewrite already-created drafts.
  • AI may adapt a template to context unless your workspace intentionally uses strict template behavior.
  • Variables need clear names and descriptions so users understand what they represent.

Common issues

  • The template description is too vague, so Ergo applies it to the wrong situation.
  • Template content includes customer-specific or stale details.
  • A variable is missing, duplicated, or unclear.
  • Users expect template edits to update drafts that were already generated.
