Summarize Your Inbox Every Morning

This automation template helps you conquer inbox overload by providing a daily email summary. It automatically gathers information from your Gmail and uses AI to create a concise overview of your most important messages.

1. Scanning Your Inbox (Gmail): Every morning, the automation checks your Gmail account for new emails received in the past 24 hours.
2. Extracting Key Information (JavaScript): Using JavaScript, the template identifies and extracts important details from the emails it finds.
3. Summarizing with AI (OpenAI ChatGPT): The extracted information is then sent to OpenAI's ChatGPT, which generates a brief summary of the key points from your emails.
4. Delivering Your Summary (Email): Finally, the concise summary is delivered directly to your email inbox, so you can quickly catch up on the day's essential information.

To successfully use this email summary automation, you'll need a few things set up. Here's what's required to get started:

Beyond just summarizing your emails, this automation template offers a way to personalize your daily digest. While the template uses a default summary style, the included JavaScript code is fully customizable.

You can easily adjust the script to filter specific senders, prioritize certain keywords, or even tailor the level of detail to your liking. This means you control the information you receive, making the summary even more relevant to your daily workflow.

Experiment with different configurations to create the perfect email summary that aligns with your individual needs, transforming your inbox from a source of stress into a valuable information hub.
