Get your email inbox under control
Thousands of unread emails, and the important ones get buried under newsletters and promos.
What the bot does
- Export or copy your top senders (most email apps can sort by sender).
- Run the prompt and set up the suggested filters.
- Unsubscribe from the senders on the list.
- Use the AI for drafts; read every reply before sending.
What you end up with
A simple folder or label system, a list of senders to unsubscribe from, and short replies drafted for the emails that matter.
