Email channel

Every BandBrain band gets a dedicated email address: <yourband>@bandbrain.ai. Find it on the Channels page or the Channels quadrant on the home page.

What to send to it

Anything you want BandBrain to know:

Day sheets from Master Tour
Venue advance packets
Promoter contracts (PDFs)
Press contact lists
Email threads with the booking agent (CC the BandBrain address)
Travel confirmations
Hotel reservations

What happens with each inbound email

Message saved to the conversations log — searchable via the agent's search_messages tool and visible on the Inbox page
Attachments ingested — PDFs, images, sheets, docs become resources in your knowledge base
Links followed — Drive / Dropbox URLs in the body get auto-ingested if BandBrain can access them
Body text parsed for structured facts via day_facts extraction — load-in times, doors, hotel confirmations all become structured data
Sender added to contacts (if not already there) — auto-extracts name + organization + role from email signature

Email is ingestion-only

BandBrain never auto-replies to an inbound email. The agent doesn't run; no agent-composed response goes out. Email is a one-way pipe into the brain.

The reason: email threads are often multi-party (booking agent, manager, label, venue). Auto-replying would inject the bot into business conversations unpredictably. Inbound = absorb; outbound = only via explicit broadcast.

Master Tour day sheets

A common pattern: your booking agent emails the daysheet PDF to your BandBrain address every morning. Within ~1 minute:

PDF is ingested as a resource
day_facts extraction pulls venue/hotel/schedule/contacts into the structured store
Sender domain is checked — if it's @eventric.com or @mastertour.com, the resource gets tagged metadata.source = "mastertour" so the agent knows it's canonical data

After that, any band member texting "what's tonight's hotel?" gets the right answer instantly.

CC'ing the BandBrain inbox

A nice pattern: CC <yourband>@bandbrain.ai on threads with promoters / venues / label. BandBrain absorbs the back-and-forth and the agent can search past conversations later: "what did the Wiltern's PM say about parking last time?"
