Automate your morning routine with a personalized priority digest.

Leverage the Daily Brief feature to consolidate Gmail and Calendar notifications into a single, actionable plan for your workday.

Google Gemini

The Scenario

You wake up to a cluttered inbox and a back-to-back meeting schedule. You need to know exactly which task requires your focus first without reading every individual email.

Before & after

The old way

You spend your first 15–20 minutes of the morning toggling between Gmail, Google Calendar, and Slack to figure out what is most urgent.

With AI

Use the 'Daily Brief' feature to get a prioritized morning digest. Gemini analyzes your messages and calendar to give you a roadmap in 1 minute.

The Prompt

Give me my Daily Brief. Summarize my top priorities from Gmail and Calendar and suggest the first three steps I should take today.

Daily Brief uses Personal Intelligence to distill priorities from Workspace apps. It categorizes tasks into 'Top of Mind' for immediate action and 'Look Ahead' for long-term goals.
