My inbox used to stress me out — not because of spam, but because everything felt important.
Rules, folders, and labels help… until they don’t. Email isn’t predictable, context changes, and I found myself managing rules instead of actually focusing on what mattered.
So instead of adding more filters, I built an AI agent that can actually read emails, make judgment calls, and explain every decision it makes.

In this video, I’ll show you:
- Why traditional email rules break down
- How an AI agent decides whether an email needs action
- When it prepares a draft reply vs. when it interrupts me
- Why transparency is the key to trusting AI with real workflows
This same pattern applies beyond email: support tickets, sales leads, internal requests — anywhere inputs are messy and judgment matters.
