Overview

Manually sorting and replying to emails wastes hours daily and risks missing critical messages. This automation scans Gmail inboxes, uses AI to categorize emails as questions, project updates, or feedback, then sends tailored replies instantly. It even schedules appointments for inquiries, eliminating back-and-forth and ensuring no email slips through unread or unclassified.
