Gmail

An AI assistant that works your inbox

Connect Gmail and ask in plain words: summarize what came in today, draft replies for you to check, label every invoice, collect the PDFs a client sent. Or put it on a schedule and get a digest each morning.

Uses your Automatio credits. Sending an email costs 1 credit.

Automatio chat

Summarize today's unread email and draft replies to anything from clients. Don't send anything.

  • Read today's unread email
  • Grouped it by sender and topic
  • Saved draft replies for you to check
What it does

The inbox work, done by asking

Everything you'd click through in Gmail, described in a sentence instead.

Read and search

Finds mail by sender, subject, date, label or Gmail's own search terms, with full bodies when it needs them.

Write, reply and forward

Sends, replies in the thread and forwards with a note. Ask for drafts when you want to read them first.

Labels and filters

Applies and creates labels, labels mail in batches, and sets up filters that label or forward new mail.

Clean up

Marks as read, archives, stars and moves mail to Trash. It never deletes mail permanently.

Attachments

Finds attachments by name, type or sender and saves the files to your Automatio files.

On a schedule

Turn a request into an automation, like a morning digest of yesterday's mail, and it runs on its own.

Getting started

1

In Automatio, open Integrations, pick Gmail and sign in with Google.

2

Ask for what you need

Describe the job in plain words. Ask for drafts when you want to check before anything goes out.

3

Schedule it if it repeats

Ask for it every morning or every Friday and it becomes an automation.

Straight answers

What it does and doesn't do

It does

  • Move mail to Trash, where Gmail keeps it 30 days. It never deletes mail permanently.
  • Send right away when you ask it to send. Ask for drafts to check first.
  • Let Google's Gemini read the raw email. Any other model you pick works from Gemini's summary.
  • Run on a schedule as an automation, within the budget you set.

It doesn't

  • Send from an alias or change your signature or vacation reply.
  • Forward the original attachments. It attaches files you upload in the chat.
  • Restore mail from Trash or delete labels.
  • Use your email to train AI models.

Questions

Is my email safe?

Gmail access goes through Google's own sign-in, and the access token is held by our integration service, not stored with your chats. Automatio's use of Google data follows Google's API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements, and your email is never used to train AI models.

Which AI reads my email?

Google's Gemini reads the raw Gmail data. If you chose a different model for the chat, that model works from Gemini's summary.

Will it send emails without asking?

When you ask it to send, it sends. To read first, ask for drafts; they wait in your Drafts folder. An automation you set up can send on its own once you switch it on.

Can it delete my email?

It can move mail to Trash, where Gmail keeps it for 30 days. It can't delete mail permanently.

Is this ChatGPT for Gmail?

It's Automatio's agent, and you choose the model it runs on, OpenAI's and Anthropic's included. Google's Gemini reads the raw email for it.

What does it cost?

Reading and organizing mail costs nothing beyond the AI's own work. Sending, replying or forwarding uses 1 credit each.

How do I disconnect?

Disconnect the Gmail tile under Integrations. You can also remove Automatio's access in your Google account's security settings.
