Created by Adam Goodyer • Version 96 • 56 steps
What you get
- Install an AI Gmail support agent that checks unread support emails, uses your docs or help center for context, drafts replies, and escalates messages that need a human.
Integrations
- googleapis
- openai
- google-gmail
How it works
- 56 workflow steps run in Breyta to produce the app result.
What this flow does
AI Gmail Support Agent monitors a Gmail inbox for unread support emails, checks each new message, and drafts a concise reply using your docs or help center as context.
Add your product name, support sender name, and a docs or help center URL during setup. The flow fetches that page, uses it to answer product questions, sends replies through Gmail, and escalates messages that need a human.
Who it is for
- SaaS teams that receive support questions in Gmail.
- Founders or support teams that want faster first replies.
- Teams with public docs, a help center, or a support knowledge base.
What you need before installing it
- A Gmail account for sending and reading support email. You connect Gmail during setup.
- A product or company name.
- A docs or help center URL, for example
https://help.example.com. - Optional: a human escalation link, such as a
mailto:link or support page.
OpenAI is provided by the flow author, so installers do not need to bring their own OpenAI API key.
How it works
- Checks Gmail for unread support emails.
- Skips threads that already have replies.
- Classifies each message as product support, spam, or human escalation.
- Fetches the docs or help center URL provided during setup.
- Drafts a short reply grounded in that content.
- Sends the reply through Gmail.
- Marks handled emails as read.
- Stars escalated messages for human review.
Output
- A sent Gmail reply for support questions the agent can answer.
- A skipped or escalated status for messages that should not receive an automated reply.
- A run record showing what happened.
Notes
This flow currently uses the single docs or help center URL provided during setup. It does not crawl an entire help center. If the scraped page does not contain the answer, the agent should say that and point the customer to the next support step.
FAQ
What does the AI Gmail Support Agent do?
This app is an AI-powered assistant that manages your support inbox. It reads unread emails, finds answers in your documentation, and prepares draft replies for your team to review.
How does the automation handle customer enquiries?
The agent connects your Gmail account with your help centre and OpenAI. When a new email arrives, the agent uses your support docs as context to draft a relevant response or hands the thread over to a human for complex queries.
Which services does the AI support agent use?
This workflow integrates with Google Gmail and Google APIs to manage your inbox. It uses OpenAI to process language and generate accurate responses based on your specific support content.
Can I personalise the AI's responses and behaviour?
You can customise how the agent behaves by linking it to your unique help centre and knowledge base. You're in control of the drafted content, as you can set the agent to escalate messages that require a person's touch.
