Email Summarization Workflow with AI

This workflow helps busy professionals manage email overload by automatically summarizing important messages, extracting action items, and organizing information in a digestible format.

Problem It Solves

The average professional spends 28% of their workday reading and responding to emails. This workflow gives you hours back in your week by:

  • Automatically identifying important emails
  • Creating concise summaries of long threads
  • Extracting action items and deadlines
  • Organizing information by project or topic

Implementation Guide

  1. Email Connection: Connect your email provider (Gmail, Outlook, etc.)
  2. AI Setup: Configure the AI model parameters for summarization
  3. Processing Rules: Define rules for which emails should be processed
  4. Destination Setup: Set up where summaries should be sent (Notion, Slack, etc.)

Key Components

  • N8n or Make.com for the automation workflow
  • Gmail or Outlook API for email access
  • OpenAI API for content summarization
  • Notion/Slack/Teams for summary delivery

Customization Options

  • Priority levels for different types of emails
  • Summary length preferences (brief, detailed, etc.)
  • Formatting options for different destination platforms
  • Schedule for batch processing vs. real-time processing

This workflow is ideal for managers, executives, and knowledge workers who receive a high volume of emails daily.
