Email triage is exhausting. Every message requires a decision: act now, save for later, delegate, or delete. Multiply this by dozens of emails daily, and you've spent significant mental energy just sorting.
AI-powered email triage reduces this burden. Forwarded emails are automatically processed based on their content and intent.
Email triage autopilot uses AI to process forwarded emails without manual sorting. Content is classified by intent, organized automatically, tasks are extracted, and questions are answered—all from a simple forward action. The cognitive load shifts from you to AI.
The Traditional Triage Problem
Manual Decisions
Every email requires you to:
- Read and understand the content
- Decide what action is needed
- Determine where to store it
- Actually perform the organization
- Remember to follow up if needed
Decision Fatigue
These small decisions accumulate. By afternoon, triage quality degrades. Important content gets missed. Tasks fall through cracks.
The Autopilot Approach
One Action: Forward
When you encounter valuable email content, forward it. That's your only decision. AI handles everything else:
- Classifies intent automatically
- Routes to appropriate workflow
- Extracts and indexes content
- Creates tasks if present
- Answers questions if detected
Reduced Cognitive Load
Instead of deciding what to do with each email, you make a binary choice: forward or don't. Everything else is automated.
Autopilot Workflows
Newsletter → Archive
Set up auto-forwarding for newsletters. Each issue is automatically saved, organized, and made searchable. No daily decision needed.
Meeting Notes → Tasks
Forward meeting summaries. AI extracts action items and creates linked tasks. Meeting context is preserved.
Questions → Answers
Send questions to your Lolodex address. AI searches your knowledge base and responds. No manual searching required.
Research Requests → Reports
Prefix subject with "Research:" and describe what you need. AI researches and sends back a summary.
Setting Up Autopilot
- Identify high-volume sources (newsletters, specific senders)
- Create auto-forward rules in your email client
- Build the manual forward habit for one-off content
- Review periodically to ensure capture quality
