# Easy Reply

> Easy Reply is a free Chrome extension for Gmail that adds 2–4 clickable answer options inside an email. The recipient clicks an answer and confirms it, without typing, installing anything, creating an account, or logging in. Easy Reply then sends a notification with the selected answer into the original email thread.

Easy Reply is built for people who send outbound email from Gmail, such as SDRs, account executives, and founders. It reduces the effort of replying; it does not guarantee a higher reply rate.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why am I asked to sign in to Google again?

Being signed in to Gmail does not authorize Easy Reply. First-time senders complete a separate Google authorization. In v1.79, its modal stays over your Gmail compose window; setup does not fully take you away from Gmail. Your prospects do not need this setup.

### Where is Easy Reply in Gmail?

Look for the small lightning-bolt icon in the Gmail compose toolbar. Use it to add 2–4 reply options. If you are prompted to authorize Google, complete the modal over compose, then continue writing your email.

### How do I add one-click reply buttons in Gmail?

Install Easy Reply in Chrome on desktop. Complete Google authorization in the modal over compose, then use the small lightning-bolt icon to add 2–4 answer options. When your prospect clicks and confirms an answer, Easy Reply sends a notification in the thread.

### Can Easy Reply increase my cold email reply rate?

Easy Reply removes the need to write a response by giving prospects ready-to-click answers. That is one way to reduce reply friction, not a guaranteed increase in email response rate. Relevance, timing, and the question you ask still matter. Measure replies and positive replies separately to see whether it helps your outreach.

### How do I get prospects to reply without writing a long answer?

Ask one clear question and offer short, honest choices. For a meeting request, try ‘Yes, let’s talk’, ‘Not right now’, and ‘Maybe next quarter’. Include a real no or not-now option. Easy Reply puts those choices inside your Gmail email so prospects can click and confirm instead of typing.

### Can I install Easy Reply on my phone?

Install the Easy Reply Chrome extension on a desktop computer and use it when sending in Gmail. If you are reading this on your phone, open easyreply.ai in Chrome on your computer to install. Recipients do not need to install the extension to answer.

### Is Easy Reply a form or survey?

No. The answer options live inside your email. When the recipient confirms a choice, Easy Reply sends their selected answer as a notification in the original thread.

### Does the recipient need Easy Reply?

No. They do not need the extension, an account, or a login. They click an answer and confirm it.

### Does the recipient leave their inbox?

No. There is no form or scheduling page to visit. The reply stays part of the email flow.

### What is included in the Free plan?

Free includes 10 sends a month, 3 AI suggestions per email, and an Easy Reply footer on your emails. Free is not unlimited.

### What is included in the Pro plan?

Pro is $19 per month and includes unlimited sends.

### Can Easy Reply suggest the answers?

Yes. Optional AI assistance can suggest useful answer options from the content of your email. The Free plan includes 3 AI suggestions per email.

### Does Easy Reply send from my prospect’s email account?

No. Easy Reply sends the notification from noreply@easyreply.email. A click records the prospect’s selected answer; it does not send mail from their account. Do not assume a notification supports replying directly to the prospect unless it has their address in Reply-To.

### Where does the answer go?

A threaded notification lands in your inbox, sent by Easy Reply from noreply@easyreply.email. It contains the prospect’s selected answer; it is not an email sent from their own account.
