SignUpGenius

Volunteer, snack and potluck sign-ups

You signed up for napkins. You'll remember napkins.

You grabbed the "paper goods" slot for the class party three weeks ago. SignUpGenius emails a confirmation; the assistant puts it on the calendar and reminds you the night before. SignUpGenius sends confirmation and reminder emails. The assistant reads them so every slot you claim becomes a dated reminder, and it notices new sign-ups from your school or team.

What it handles for you

  • New sign-up requests flagged before the easy slots are taken
  • The night-before nudge ("Napkins for 24, Room 12")

Stuck? Try this: Not seeing emails? Check your spam or Promotions folder and mark one as “Not spam” so the next ones land in your inbox.

How Grok Bot connects

Email: Grok Bot reads the notification emails SignUpGenius already sends you, in the inbox you connected. Nothing new is installed inside SignUpGenius.
