Thursday tutorial: 4 steps to build an AI inbox that summarizes your emails every morning
Most people start their morning drowning in email. Here's how to fix that in 4 steps.
Tool stack: Make.com + Gmail + Claude
Step 1: Connect Gmail to Make.com. Set it to trigger every morning at 7 AM. Pull all unread emails from the last 12 hours.
Step 2: Pass the email subjects, senders, and snippets to Claude with this prompt: "Here are my unread emails from overnight. Summarize the 3 most important ones I need to act on today. Flag anything urgent. Skip newsletters and promos. Be concise."
Step 3: Send Claude's summary to yourself via Slack, Telegram, or email. One clean message. Before you even open your inbox.
Step 4: Batch your replies. You already know what matters. You're not reacting, you're responding.
Total setup time: about 90 minutes the first time. Saves 20-30 minutes every single morning after that.
The shift this creates is real. You stop letting your inbox decide your morning priorities. You decide.
I've been running this for a few months. The days I skip it, I feel it.
What does your current email routine look like? And if you've already automated something like this, what's your setup? Drop it below.
