Kickstart Your AI Fluency: Clean up your Inbox with AI | Build-along Workshop

Join a free live event: https://zpr.io/F55pQykfzrKw and start building your inbox Agent! Is your inbox running your day? In this Zapier Build-along Workshop, Emily Mabie (Sr. AI Automation Engineer) teaches you how to reclaim your time by building an autonomous AI Agent that sorts, summarizes, and drafts replies to your emails. This isn't just a presentation—it’s a hands-on builder session. Follow along as Emily configures an agent that distinguishes between priority leads, sales pitches, and simple notifications. You will also see how to "personalize" your automation by training the agent to draft replies in your specific brand voice using historical email data. Be sure to stay tuned until the end of the build! We conclude the session with a live Q&A featuring our host, Emily Mabie, and Bryce Vernon, Growth Marketing Manager at Zapier, where they answer specific community questions about scaling your personal productivity with AI. 🛠️ Build-along Resources Featured Workflow: Automated Inbox Manager Agent Tech Stack Used: Zapier Central (AI Agents), Gmail, Slack.
