How this works

Save time managing your inbox by automatically summarising incoming emails with AI and crafting personalised responses, ensuring you never miss important details while keeping communication efficient. This workflow suits busy professionals, customer support teams, or anyone overwhelmed by email volume, delivering value through quick handling of routine queries. It starts by monitoring your email account via IMAP to detect new messages, then leverages an AI service through HTTP requests to generate concise summaries and replies, before sending them out seamlessly.

Use this workflow for high-volume inboxes like support tickets or newsletters where automated summaries and responses maintain productivity without manual intervention. Avoid it for sensitive communications requiring human oversight, such as legal or confidential matters, to prevent errors. Common variations include integrating Google Drive to archive summarised emails or adding filters for specific senders to prioritise certain threads.
