How to Draft Gmail Replies in Context with Littlebird

Stop drafting replies from scratch. Start from the thread.

The reply is sitting in the blank box, cursor blinking. Before you can write it you scroll back up the thread: what did they actually ask, what did you commit to two messages ago, which of the three questions still needs an answer. By the time you've reconstructed the conversation, the easy reply has taken ten minutes.

Littlebird already read the thread once you connect Gmail, and it pays attention as you work. Ask it to reply and it drafts from the actual conversation -- the asks, the commitments, the context -- so you start from a real draft instead of a blank box.

How do I draft Gmail replies with AI?

Connect Gmail and Littlebird can draft a reply in context: it reads the thread and writes back grounded in what was actually said, not a generic template. You read the draft, adjust anything you want, and send. The reconstruct-the-conversation step is the part it removes.

Drafted from the thread, not from memory

A good reply answers what was actually asked. Littlebird can draft replies in context, so when a thread has three questions and a deadline buried in it, the draft addresses them instead of a vague "thanks, will do." You're editing a real answer, not writing one from nothing.

It knows which replies you owe

You can't draft the reply you forgot you owed. Littlebird can surface the open loops in your email, so the threads waiting on you show up first -- then the drafting starts from there. More on finding what's waiting is on the Gmail integration page.

Review it, then send

The draft is a starting point you control. When it's right, Littlebird can send on your behalf, and because you can connect more than one Gmail account, the reply goes out from the address the thread belongs to. Nothing sends until you say so.

The next reply you owe is already drafted. Read it, send it, move on.

Common questions

Will the reply sound like me?

Littlebird drafts from the real thread -- the conversation and the commitments in it -- so the reply fits the exchange instead of reading like a generic template. You review and edit every draft before it sends, so what goes out is always yours.

Does Littlebird train on my email?

No. Littlebird never trains models on your data and never sells it. Your data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and you can delete it at any time.

Connect Gmail

Connect Gmail in Settings > Integrations, then ask Littlebird to draft your next reply. See everything Littlebird does with Gmail on the Gmail integration page.
