AI for Gmail that triages, drafts and follows up for you
Most AI for Gmail lives in a sidebar and helps you write one email at a time. Clyde connects AI agents directly to your Gmail account, so they can work through the inbox for you: sort what came in, draft replies in your tone, chase the threads that went quiet and move the important details into the other apps your business uses.

What your Gmail agent can do
- ▶Triage: read new mail, label it by type (sales lead, support, invoice, newsletter) and flag what needs you.
- ▶Draft replies: write answers to routine enquiries in your tone, ready for you to check and send.
- ▶Follow up: find threads with no reply after a set number of days and draft a polite nudge.
- ▶Capture: copy enquiry details into a Google Sheet or create a contact in your CRM.
- ▶Summarise: send you a morning digest of what arrived overnight and what matters.
How connecting AI to Gmail works
In Clyde Cloud you connect Gmail once with Google’s standard sign-in. You then choose which agents are allowed to use it. From that point you can ask Clyde for inbox work in plain English, or put it on a schedule so it runs every morning without being asked.
Because the same agents can also reach Google Sheets, your calendar and your CRM, an email is not a dead end. A new enquiry can become a row in your lead tracker and a draft reply in one step.
You stay in control
You decide what each agent can do. A common setup is to let the agent label and draft but keep sending for yourself until you trust it. Every action is logged, and because Clyde is bring-your-own-key, the AI usage is billed to your own provider account, so you can see and cap the spend.
EXAMPLE · A COMPLETED TASK
“Every morning at 8, go through overnight email. Label new sales enquiries, add them to the Leads sheet, and draft a reply to each one.”
- 01Clyde schedules the task for 8am and assigns it to a sales assistant agent.
- 02The agent reads new mail in Gmail and picks out the sales enquiries.
- 03It labels each one, adds the sender, company and request to the Leads sheet in Google Sheets.
- 04It drafts a reply to each enquiry in your tone and leaves it in Drafts for you to review.
✓ Result: You open Gmail to a sorted inbox, an up-to-date lead list and replies ready to send.
