Free tool

Out of office message ready in a minute.

Not sure what to write in your out-of-office reply? Choose why you are away, add the dates and pick a tone. You get a subject line and a text you can copy straight into Gmail, Outlook or Apple Mail, in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian or Portuguese.

Runs in your browser. Nothing you type leaves your device.

Tone

Warm uses the informal "you" where a language has one (du, tú, tu), neutral the formal one (Sie, usted, vous, Lei, você). Short avoids "you" altogether.

Your message appears here

Choose an occasion and the dates on the left. The text updates as you type.

01

How it works

Pick why you are away, the first day and the day you are back. Add your name and a stand-in if you like.

Choose a tone and the language of the message. The subject and the text are built from carefully written phrases and update while you type.

Copy the subject, the text or both, and paste them into the automatic reply of your mail account.

02

Private by design

Everything runs in your browser. Names, dates and email addresses you type are never sent anywhere.

There is no account and no AI behind it. The same input always gives the same text.

We only count that the tool was used, together with rough choices such as the occasion or the tone. Never your text.

03

Good to know

The generator writes the message. It cannot switch on the automatic reply in your mail account, you do that yourself.

Dates are shown as day and month in the language of the message. Add a year or a time yourself if you need one.

Read the text once before you send it, and adjust anything that does not sound like you.

Questions

What should I write in an out-of-office message?

Say that you are away, from when and until when, how to reach someone for urgent things, and whether you read emails meanwhile. Skip the details of why. A friendly opening and a short sign-off are enough.

How long should an out-of-office message be?

Three to five short sentences. People read an automatic reply in a few seconds, so the return date and the contact for urgent matters should be easy to find.

Do I have to give the reason for my absence?

No. "I am away" and the date you are back is enough. For illness or personal reasons it is better to say nothing at all, which is why the short absence option never mentions health.

How do I set up an out-of-office reply in Gmail or Outlook?

In Gmail open the settings and look for Out of office on the General tab. In Outlook look for Automatic replies. Both let you set the dates and paste your text. The steps are listed next to the result.
