The inbox is becoming a draft machine

Yethikrishna ROriginal on Threads

the inbox is becoming a draft machine: gmail shipped help me write and suggested replies with gemini in january, superhuman and shortwave auto-draft in your voice at 30 and 9 dollars a month, and the job has quietly shifted from writing to approving.

the expensive skill is now the ten-second review.

Context

Gmail Help documents Gemini in Gmail: Help me write drafts or refines emails from a prompt, and Suggested Replies proposes a response that matches the tone and style of your past emails. Availability depends on plan and language.

Superhuman's Email Assistant adds Auto Labels, Auto Archive, Auto Drafts and Auto Reminders inside an existing Gmail inbox.

How it compares

The Gemini features and Superhuman's auto-drafting match the sources. The January ship date, the 30 and 9 dollar monthly prices and Shortwave's auto-draft in your voice were not seen in the sources read, so unsupported here, not refuted.
