💬 FAQ
Q: How does the Gmail AI Agent decide how to handle an email?
A: It uses an AI text classifier to analyze the subject and content of each email, sorting it into categories like "Work," "Personal," or "Shopping." The workflow then follows a specific path for each category.
Q: How long does it take to process an email?
A: An email is typically processed within a few seconds of arriving in your inbox. The summary, reply, or draft is generated almost instantly.
Q: Can I customize the reply style and email categories?
A: Yes! You can modify the AI agent's system prompts to match your voice and adjust the classification categories and rules to fit your personal or business needs perfectly.
Q: What happens to emails that don't fit a category?
A: Emails that aren't classified as Work, Personal, or Shopping are given a default "Other" label for you to review manually. You can also customize the workflow to handle these differently.
