How do I triage my inbox with AI?
Triage by importance, then by required action. With Jarvis (getjarvis.eu), connect Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail via OAuth, press Cmd+/ on Mac or Ctrl+/ on Windows, and ask it to classify your unread mail into needs-reply-today, FYI, newsletters, and noise. Jarvis screenshots your current view for visual context and pulls full message bodies through the connector API. It routes the classification to the strongest available model for accuracy or a faster one for speed, then surfaces the top 5-10 threads to handle now and parks the rest. Persistent memory remembers your priority senders, project labels, and tone preferences across sessions. Tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest. Free tier covers daily triage; Pro at $16/month or Unlimited at $32/month raise quotas and add deeper Pro/Max model routing.

Triage with AI is not just labeling — it's a one-pass scan that turns 80 unread messages into a one-screen action list. Jarvis runs four steps every time you ask. First, retrieval: pull unread mail from Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail through the connector (OAuth-encrypted for cloud clients, local AppleScript for Apple Mail). Second, classification: route each thread through frontier models from Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google to tag urgency (needs reply today / this week / FYI / noise) and intent (decision / question / request / notification). Third, ranking: weight by sender priority (from your Jarvis memory), thread length, and time-since-last-message. Fourth, presentation: a short list in the floating bar with a one-line summary per thread and a suggested next action. The whole process takes 4-10 seconds for an inbox of 80 unread.
Install Jarvis from getjarvis.eu (Mac, Windows, or Linux). Sign in. Connect Gmail in Settings → Integrations using OAuth; the same flow works for Outlook (Microsoft 365 OAuth) and Apple Mail (native macOS). Grant the minimum read scope. Once a day — first thing in the morning works for most people — press Cmd+/ on Mac or Ctrl+/ on Windows from any app and type "triage my inbox". Jarvis returns a ranked list within seconds. For each entry, you can press the keyboard shortcut to open the thread in your client, ask Jarvis to draft a reply, or mark it handled. Teach Jarvis your priorities once ("my CEO is [email protected]", "deprioritize newsletters from substack.com", "my standard reply is 3 sentences") and the memory persists across every triage session afterward.
