AI Email Intelligence & Automation

End-to-end AI automation that monitors Gmail, processes emails with n8n and AI, stores structured results in PostgreSQL, and displays them in a secure Next.js dashboard.

AI Email Intelligence & Automation

Workflow & Architecture

  1. 01

    Problem

    Manual inbox triage made it difficult to consistently understand incoming messages, identify urgent requests, and track which conversations needed a reply.

  2. 02

    Gmail Input

    New emails are automatically received from Gmail and passed into the automation pipeline for processing.

  3. 03

    n8n Automation

    n8n orchestrates the workflow by receiving the email, preparing its content, calling the AI service, and routing the structured result for storage.

  4. 04

    AI Analysis

    OpenRouter AI generates a summary, classification, priority, sentiment, and reply analysis, along with the supporting email intelligence used by the dashboard.

  5. 05

    PostgreSQL Storage

    The structured analysis is stored in PostgreSQL so results remain durable, queryable, and ready for filtering across the email history.

  6. 06

    Next.js Dashboard

    A secure Next.js dashboard reads the stored results and provides a focused interface for searching, filtering, and reviewing email intelligence.

  7. 07

    Result

    A repeatable Gmail-to-dashboard pipeline turns raw incoming messages into organized, actionable intelligence with less manual review.

The Problem

Important Gmail messages required manual review and triage, making it difficult to consistently identify urgency, sentiment, and which conversations needed a reply.

The Solution

An automated pipeline connects Gmail to n8n, sends structured email content through OpenRouter AI for analysis, stores the results in PostgreSQL, and presents them in a secure Next.js dashboard.

Impact

Email intelligence is available in one searchable dashboard, reducing repetitive triage work and making priority, sentiment, summaries, and reply requirements easier to act on.
