Email Automation
Email automation uses AI to intelligently manage your inbox by triaging messages, categorizing them, drafting contextual replies, extracting action items, and reducing the time spent on email.
Understanding Email Automation
The average professional spends over two hours daily on email. AI email automation addresses this by handling the mechanical aspects of email management. An AI system can read incoming messages and understand their content, categorize them by urgency and topic, draft appropriate replies that match your communication style, extract action items and create tasks, schedule follow-ups, and archive or label messages. The key difference from traditional email filters is intelligence: AI understands the content and context of messages, not just sender addresses or keywords.

GAIA can triage your inbox by priority, draft contextual replies that match your writing style, create tasks from action items mentioned in emails, schedule follow-ups on your calendar, and label or archive messages.
