Nudge senders when their emailed promise goes overdue
Tracks commitments others make to you by logging them to a database, then runs daily to find promises whose due date has passed without resolution and drafts a polite Gmail…
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

- OutputCreate Gmail follow-up draft for reviewGmail
What it does
This closes the loop on promises made to you. When an inbound email contains a commitment, the workflow records it with its due date. A daily check finds commitments whose deadline has slipped, and for each one it drafts a courteous follow-up email in Gmail referencing the original promise, ready for you to review and send.
When to use it
Use it when other people owe you things and you're tired of manually chasing them. Procurement, ops, and account managers who depend on vendors and partners delivering on emailed promises and want automatic, dated reminders to chase the slipped ones.
How it works
- 1A new inbound Gmail message triggers extraction.
- 2OpenAI identifies commitments made to you and resolves the due date.
- 3Each commitment is written to a Postgres table with sender, deliverable, and deadline.
- 4Separately, a daily schedule queries the table for promises now past due and not marked resolved.
- 5For each overdue item, OpenAI drafts a polite, context-aware follow-up.
- 6The draft is created in Gmail for you to review and send.
