Automated Email Classification and Tagging System

This n8n workflow automates the process of managing emails by fetching new messages from Gmail, analyzing their content with an AI language model, and categorizing them into specific labels within Gmail. The workflow is triggered every minute, ensuring timely email processing. It begins by using a Gmail trigger to monitor incoming emails, then retrieves detailed email data, including headers and content. The core of the process involves an AI agent that evaluates each email’s content, sender history, and headers—such as ‘auto-submitted’ or ‘list-unsubscribe’—to determine the most suitable label. This includes categories like ‘To Respond,’ ‘FYI,’ ‘Notification,’ ‘Meeting Update,’ and ‘Marketing.’ The workflow concludes by applying the chosen label to the email, enabling more efficient email management, prioritization, and response. This automation is especially useful in business environments where timely email sorting improves productivity and ensures important messages are flagged appropriately.
