AI Agents for Gmail

Keeping track of important emails in Gmail is a pain because you either have to keep checking your inbox manually or risk missing something urgent from a key contact.

Once you connect Lindy to Gmail, it can scan incoming emails, identify messages from the VIP senders you specify, and fire off an SMS to your phone the moment one lands in your inbox.

What is a Lindy skill?

A skill shows you a real-world task Lindy can handle for you. It's there to inspire you and show what's possible, not a pre-built workflow you have to follow.

Can I use a skill straight away?

Yes. Sign up, connect the apps the skill needs, and you're ready to go. Most skills are up and running in minutes.

What is Lindy

Lindy is your AI assistant. You tell it what you need in plain language and it takes care of the work, across your apps, on your schedule.

What apps do I need?

Each skill page lists exactly which apps are involved and whether they are required or optional. If you already use those apps, you're good to go.

Do I need to build anything?

No. Just tell Lindy what you want it to do and it figures out the rest. Skills are there to show you what's possible and get you started.

Can Lindy do something that is not listed as a skill?

Almost certainly. Skills show what's possible, not what's limited. If you don't see what you need, just ask Lindy directly and it will figure it out.
