Feature request: Add a configurable default first-send time for sequence enrollment, or let the first-send time inherit the sequence send window default.
Problem: When bulk enrolling contacts and choosing Send later, the time defaults to the current time instead of a preferred default like 8:00 AM. For users scheduling 500 contacts/day in 50-contact batches, repeatedly changing the first-send time is unnecessarily tedious.
Suggested improvement: Let users set a default first-step send time per sequence, or remember the last used first-send time.

Hubspot AI also confirmed that the time window in the Sequence settings is for the automatic scheduling of reply/follow-up emails and does not regulate the first email. The first email is strictly based on your enrollment steps.
Might not be the biggest of suggestions, but it’s a relatively easy fix, and when it comes to bulk enrollments, every click counts.
When you are scheduling same-day outreach, it makes sense for “Send now” to be the current time, but when you are scheduling a day or more in advance and need to select “Send Later,” it doesn’t make sense for the time to be set to the current time.
