Why it matters

Email is where a lot of admin quietly piles up. An agent that can read, sort, draft and follow up turns an inbox from a to-do list into something closer to a summary. It is one of 106 sightings filed under Email & Inbox on Agent Sightings (number 51 by interest), and one of 14 involving Gemini.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Gemini or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Go through my mail for this goal: summarize emails and draft replies. Propose labels, drafts, and unsubscribes as a checklist; change nothing until I approve.

Tip: Start with read-only access or 'draft, don't send', and check a few drafts before trusting it to send anything.
