24 alternatives to I built AI agents with CrewAI to automate my entire Gmail workflow

I created a crew of AI agents using CrewAI to automate my old Gmail account that had a lot of unread emails. This is what I had it do: - Categorizing emails and assigning priority levels - Applying labels and stars based on content analysis - Creating draft responses for important emails only + saving it in Drafts folder - Sending Slack notifications for high-priority messages (I use Slack a lot) - Cleaning up low-priority emails based on configurable rules (delete low quality emails + empty trash afterwards) It works with most of the models so long as they're good at tool calling (most OSS…

This project uses CrewAI to deploy a team of AI agents that automate Gmail inbox management. The system categorizes emails by priority, applies labels and stars, drafts responses to important messages, sends Slack… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

    I run multiple projects and D2C brands, which means I manage 6 different Gmail accounts and easily get 100+ emails a day - team updates, invoices, customer queries, newsletters, OTPs… everything mixed together. After missing a few important emails that actually cost me money, I realized the problem wasn’t the number of emails, it was how hard it was to make sense of them. So I built Supamail, an AI-powered inbox that helps you read less and understand more. Here’s what it does: - Emails in last 24 hrs shrink into clear summaries, smart categories, and easy replies so you never feel…

    Hey HN, we're Haakam, Michael, and Adi. We're building AgentMail (https://agentmail.to/), an API to give AI agents their own email inboxes. We’re not talking about AI for your email, this is email for your AI. We started building email agents because they can converse with users in their inboxes, automate email-based workflows, and authenticate with third-party applications. Given these unique capabilities, we think email will be a core interface for agents. But we were building on top of Gmail, which was a struggle: poor API support, expensive subscriptions, rate limits,…

    Hi HN! My co-founder and I spent the last 4 weeks building something we desperately needed ourselves. The Problem: We spend hours processing emails - scheduling meetings, going through long newsletters, downloading attachments to review, verifying documents like invoices, and of course taking actions on external systems (Salesforce, Asana, Jira etc) based on emails received. A lot of this can be automated with the help of AI agents, saving several hours every week. Our Solution: Forward any email to a specialized AI agent that completes the task and email you back the results. No…

    I'm a control freak, the thought of having AI auto-replying to emails is ridiculous. Every founder I've met are the same way, just typing the words "Put your support/sales on auto-pilot" makes me cringe. I built min. to help me and my teammates with emails. Who should read it, who should reply, when to follow up, etc. min. is: - A simple email interface to manage both private and team inboxes. - An AI-native inbox that sorts and prioritizes messages into custom labels and folders. - A replacement for patchwork of CRMs, helpdesks, and spreadsheets with just… email. - Conversational…
