Features · Gmail integration
Your inbox, handled from the conversation.
Instead of switching tabs to draft a reply or check whether an email came in, Simplicity can read, write, and manage your Gmail right inside the chat — with a secure Google sign-in and a manual approval step before anything is ever sent.
Secure sign-in, not a password field
Connecting Gmail happens through Google's own consent screen — you'll see exactly which permissions are being requested (send email, read your inbox, and optionally Google Drive access) before you approve anything. Simplicity never sees or stores your Google password; only an encrypted, revocable access token.
Draft, review, then send — never automatic
Ask Simplicity to email someone and it prepares the message as a card in the conversation: recipient, subject line, and body, ready for you to edit. Sending only happens when you click Send on that card — there's no path where the assistant emails someone without a human clicking a button first.
Full inbox management, in plain language
Beyond sending, you can ask Simplicity to find a specific email, summarize your unread messages, reply to a thread, archive something, or clean up old messages — reversible actions like archiving apply immediately, while anything destructive (like moving mail to trash) still asks for confirmation first.
Frequently asked questions
How does Simplicity connect to Gmail?
Through Google's own OAuth sign-in, set up from the Settings page — Simplicity never asks for or stores your Google password. You approve exactly which permissions to grant (Gmail, Google Drive, or both), and you can disconnect at any time.
Can Simplicity send emails without asking me first?
No. When you ask Simplicity to send an email, it prepares a draft — recipient, subject, and body — and shows you an approval card in chat. Nothing is sent until you review it and click Send yourself.
What can Simplicity do with my inbox?
Once connected, it can read and search your inbox, reply to or forward messages, mark emails read/unread or archive them, move messages to trash (with a confirmation step), and save drafts — all from natural conversation instead of switching to Gmail.
Is my Gmail data secure?
Yes. OAuth refresh tokens are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) before being stored, and every email-sending or inbox-modifying action requires your explicit confirmation — Simplicity is designed so a stray instruction can't silently send or delete anything.
