What it does
Instead of reacting email by email, this workflow batches. On a schedule it pulls the past 24 hours of Gmail, finds every message where you committed to something, and produces one ranked list: what you owe, to whom, and by when. It posts that list to Slack as your morning briefing.
When to use it
Use it when real-time task creation feels noisy and you would rather review commitments once a day. Great for managers who want a single accountable view of outstanding promises without juggling another app.
How it works
- 1A daily schedule fires the workflow each morning.
- 2A Gmail action fetches messages from the last 24 hours.
- 3An OpenAI step extracts every commitment you made, with recipient and due date.
