The problem it solves

Job-related emails get buried among everything else in your inbox, and manually labeling and tracking each one is slow and easy to mess up. Gmail's default tabs don't match how you actually think about your own inbox.

Who it fits

Job seekers, freelancers, or students juggling multiple email threads about opportunities and applications.

How it works

  1. New emails are checked on a set schedule
  2. AI reads each one and classifies it into a category you define
  3. A matching Gmail label is applied, created automatically if it doesn't exist
What you get

Job emails filed under the right label

Every job-related email lands in its own labeled folder in Gmail without you lifting a finger.

What you get

A Gmail inbox automatically sorted into your own custom labels.

What you need

A Gmail account and an OpenAI account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
