What is Perplexity Email Assistant?

The Perplexity Email Assistant is an AI-driven tool that integrates directly with Gmail and Outlook. It functions as a digital secretary, learning from your email habits to prioritise messages, flag important threads, and compose responses in your tone of voice.

Users can interact with the assistant through simple natural language queries such as “Show me unread messages from my manager” or “Summarise today’s client emails.” The AI quickly filters through your inbox and generates summaries or drafts, offering an instant productivity boost for busy professionals.
