Virtual executive assistant: your inbox, calendar and follow-ups, handled in your hours

One dedicated executive assistant runs your inbox, calendar, meetings and follow-ups. We recruit, employ and manage them, from around $8.80 an hour.

Your inbox and calendar, handled by one assistant

You stop answering email at 11pm. Your assistant sorts the inbox, drafts the replies you'd write and keeps the calendar free of clashes, so you open your laptop to what actually needs you.

  • Inbox sorted and replies drafted
  • Meetings booked across time zones
  • Focus time blocked out in your calendar

Meetings booked, agendas sent, follow-ups chased

Before a meeting you get the agenda and the notes you need. After it, the actions go out and the people who owe you a reply get a nudge.

  • Agendas and briefing notes before each meeting
  • Minutes and action lists after
  • Follow-ups chased until they're closed

One assistant who learns how you work, not a new freelancer each month

You work with the same assistant every day, so they learn your priorities, your contacts and how you like things written. When they're away, a trained backup keeps your day running. If the fit isn't right, we rematch you.

  • A trained backup when your assistant is away
  • A rematch if the fit isn't right
  • Their tasks and hours in our workspace app

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a virtual executive assistant?

A virtual executive assistant is a remote assistant who supports one leader: your inbox, calendar, meetings, travel and follow-ups. With us they're dedicated to you, and we recruit, employ, pay and manage them.

What does a virtual executive assistant do day to day?

Most days start with the inbox: sorting it, drafting replies and flagging what needs you. Then the calendar, meeting prep, follow-ups after each meeting, travel bookings and research, all inside the tools you already use.

What's the difference between an executive assistant and a virtual assistant?

A virtual assistant often covers general admin for a team. An executive assistant works for one person and protects their time, so they need more judgement about what reaches you and what doesn't.

How much does a virtual executive assistant cost?

From around $8.80 an hour on a monthly plan, part-time or full-time. That's up to 70% less than an in-house executive assistant once salary, payroll tax and benefits are counted.

How do I give my assistant access to my email and calendar?

You decide what they see. Start with delegated calendar access and a shared inbox or folder, then add more as trust builds. They're your accounts, so you can remove access whenever you like.

Will my executive assistant work my hours?

Yes. We match your assistant to your working hours, whether you're in Singapore, Australia, the UK or the US.

How quickly can I hire a remote executive assistant?

Most clients are matched and onboarded within two weeks. We shortlist a pre-vetted assistant for your tasks and hours, you meet them, and they start.

What if my executive assistant isn't the right fit?

We rematch you. If your assistant is away, a trained backup covers, so your inbox doesn't stop.
