This morning I woke up and saw my inbox full of unread newsletters like Tech in Asia, JavaScript Weekly, and several productivity emails, but I didn't feel like reading each one out of laziness.
Then it occurred to me to use Claude to access my emails, summarize everything by category, and give me a brief report of what was important.
The conversation with Claude started as a simple request to summarize my emails and gradually turned into a discussion about automation. We went from extracting emails to creating templates for daily summaries, strategic weekly reports, and even how to have my phone read them aloud.
Claude suggested improvements I hadn't even thought of: smart filters, different formats for summaries, automation ideas, and integrations with other tools.
I had a moment of clarity when I decided I wanted it on my phone rather than sitting in front of my laptop. We found text-to-speech tools for mobile, and now I listen to my intelligence report while getting ready in the morning instead of staring at screens.
The setup was super simple and affordable: Claude to collect and categorize emails and summarize them into clean text, I copy the result and paste it into a text file, and I use the Android app @Voice Aloud Reader to read it aloud. Total cost: $0.
My current routine is to ask Claude to scan my emails, copy the digest into a text file, open @Voice Aloud Reader, and listen while brushing my teeth, walking, or drinking water. It takes about 7 minutes in total and saves me the old 45-minute sessions of reading newsletters.
Ready-to-copy-and-paste prompts to use with your AI assistant or custom AI agent:
Daily digest: Search my Gmail for newsletters from the last 24 hours. Summarize by categories: urgent actions, tech news, opportunities, and corporate news. Keep it under 200 words and format for text-to-speech.
Weekly digest: Analyze newsletters from the last 7 days. Extract main trends, funding news, opportunities with deadlines, and skills I should focus on. Maximum 400 words with a strategic focus.
Monthly digest: Review all sources from the last 30 days. Identify patterns, strategic shifts, long-term opportunities, risks, and an action plan for the next month. Maximum 600 words.
In short, I went from email overload to having my own personal intelligence briefing without complex setups or expensive tools. Sometimes the most effective solutions are the simplest ones.
