See Meeting NotesHow Littlebird works with Google Drive
GGoogle DriveAsk what the doc said, not where you filed it.You remember the spec mentioned a 90-day window. You don't remember the file name or which folder it's in. Drive's search box wants exact words from the title, and you're clicking through folders hoping you'll recognize it.
Connect Google Drive to Littlebird. Ask what that spec actually said and Littlebird pulls it from the doc. Littlebird can search your files and folders, read the contents of Workspace documents, Docs, Sheets, and Slides, and see a file's comments, permissions, revisions, and labels.
Littlebird can search files and folders by what they contain
"Which folder has the Q3 roadmap?" becomes "What did the Q3 roadmap say about the API launch?" You ask for the information, not the container.
Littlebird can read Docs, Sheets, and Slides
It exports Workspace documents to text and surfaces what's inside. Pull a number from a Sheet without opening it. Ask what the design doc's third section recommended and get the answer.
Littlebird can see a file's comments and replies
You can ask what the team said about the pricing section without scrolling through the thread yourself. It reads the conversation.
Littlebird can list who has access to a file
Permissions show up when you ask. "Who can see the contract draft?" gets you the list.
Littlebird can check a file's revision history
You can ask what changed between versions or when the last edit happened.
Littlebird can see file labels
The metadata you've tagged documents with is visible when you ask.
Littlebird can search across shared drives
Not just your personal Drive. If the file lives in a team drive, Littlebird can find it.

Questions about Littlebird and Google Drive
What does connecting Google Drive add?
Ask what the doc said, not where you filed it. Littlebird uses Google Drive when you ask in Chat, when a routine you set up runs and when it prepares you for a meeting. Even before you connect it, Littlebird sees Google Drive when it’s the active window on your screen, unless you exclude it.
Can Littlebird edit or delete files in Google Drive?
Littlebird can edit files in Drive, but it can't delete them. It can create files and folders, upload and copy files, rename files, and replace the contents of files that aren't Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides. It can't move files or change who has access to them.
Does Littlebird index my entire Drive, or does it search on demand?
Littlebird searches on demand. It queries Drive and reads the file it finds when you ask in Chat, when a routine you set up runs, and when it preps your meetings. It doesn't index your Drive proactively.
All the content I produce starts with Littlebird. It sits in the background, capturing the conversations that matter, so nothing gets lost in the details of a meeting or the bottom of my inbox.
