Ask the AI chat about your inbox

Short answer

Your AI secretary is a conversational assistant for your inbox. Ask what needs a reply today, and it can act too: manage Action Items, Highlights and FYIs, recategorize things, set reminders, and undo its own recent actions. Chat doesn't use credits, it has a daily limit instead.

A secretary you can talk to

AI chat is your secretary in conversation form. You type a question or an instruction the way you would message an assistant, and it answers in plain language. The big difference from a plain search box is that it does not just tell you things. It can act on your inbox when you ask it to.

Things you can ask

A few examples to give you the shape of it:

What needs a reply today?
Mark the invoice from Acme as an FYI, not an Action Item.
Remind me about the lease renewal on Friday.

What it can do for you

Beyond answering, the secretary can take action on the items it has already pulled out of your mail:

  • Manage your Action Items, Highlights, and FYIs.
  • Recategorize something that landed in the wrong place, and learn from the correction.
  • Set reminders on the things you don't want to forget.

If an email got sorted somewhere odd, the fastest fix is often to just tell the chat where it belongs. See What AI chat can and can't do for the boundaries.

Undo its recent actions

If the secretary does something you didn't mean, you can undo its recent actions. Tell it to undo, or use the undo control, and it reverses what it just did. Because you can roll changes back, it is safe to let it move quickly.

Chat doesn't use credits

AI chat is not metered by credits. It has a daily message limit instead, and that limit resets every day. Free and Plus get 20 chats a day, Pro gets 100, and Ultra gets 400. Credits are only spent on processing your incoming email. For the full breakdown, see What AI chat can and can't do.
