The problem it solves

Your inbox fills up with a mix of important messages, promotions, and noise, and sorting through it all manually eats into your day. Important emails get buried under marketing blasts and newsletters before you even see them.

Who it fits

Anyone drowning in email who wants their inbox automatically sorted and summarized.

How it works

  1. A new unread email arrives in Gmail
  2. The system reads and classifies it as important, work, finance, promotions, or social
  3. Gmail labels are applied and key information is summarized
  4. Important emails trigger an alert, and coupon or transaction details are extracted
  5. Everything is logged to a searchable database
What you get

Inbox sorted with the important stuff flagged

Your inbox gets automatically sorted into categories with the important messages flagged for you.

What you get

A sorted, labeled inbox plus alerts for anything urgent and a searchable log of extracted details.

What you need

A Gmail account, a Google Gemini API key, and a messaging or database account for alerts and logging.

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.
