Change Brief schedule and preferences

Your Briefs are delivered at scheduled times—typically morning and afternoon. You can adjust when they arrive and how they're organized to fit your workflow.


Changing Brief times

Tell the Cora Assistant:

"Change my briefs to 9am and 5pm" "I only want one brief at 8am" "Skip weekend briefs" "Send briefs only on weekdays"

Or update your settings at cora.computer/brief_settings.

Time rules:

  • First brief: 5 AM – 12 PM

  • Second brief: 12 PM – 9 PM

  • At least one brief must be active

  • Times must be at least 3 hours apart


Changing your timezone

Your timezone affects when Briefs are delivered. Cora automatically detects your timezone from your browser, but you can change it anytime.

How to change:

  1. Find the "Time zone" dropdown

  2. Select your preferred timezone

Brief times (like 8am and 3pm) are always in YOUR local timezone. If you travel, update your timezone to ensure Briefs arrive at the right time.


Voting on senders

Cora includes a voting system to personalize your Briefs based on sender preferences.


How it works:

In your Brief, you'll see voting buttons for emails in Newsletter, Promotion, Calendar, and Payments categories:

  • Thumbs up (Boost): See more from this sender—they appear first in their category

  • Thumbs down (Less): See less—they appear last in their category

What happens when you vote:

  • Your vote applies to all future emails from that sender

  • Emails are sorted within each category by your preferences

  • Click the same button again to remove your vote

  • Voting doesn't change which category an email goes into


What voting affects

  • Email ordering: Boosted senders appear first, neutral senders in the middle, downvoted senders last

  • Future learning: Your patterns help Cora understand what matters to you

What voting doesn't affect:

  • Which category an email goes into

  • Whether emails stay in inbox or go to Brief
