Most people use AI like a fancy Google search. That's a waste.

Here are 5 automations that actually save time — and that you can build today:

1. Auto-summarize your inbox every morning

Use GPT + Gmail API (or Make.com) to pull your top 10 emails, summarize them in 3 bullets each, and send you a daily digest at 8am. Saves 30 min minimum.

2. Turn meeting transcripts into action items automatically

Connect your transcription tool (Otter, Fireflies) to GPT → extracts decisions, tasks, and owners. Paste into Notion or send to Slack. Done.

3. Build a "second brain" from your past work

Feed old proposals, emails, and docs into a vector database. Build a simple chat interface. Ask it anything and it retrieves your own thinking.

4. Client report generation on autopilot

Connect analytics data → GPT generates a formatted client report draft → lands in Google Docs. 10 min of editing instead of 2 hours of writing.

5. Proposal first drafts from a voice memo

Record a 2-min voice note describing the client and project. Transcribe → GPT structures it into a full proposal using your template. 90% done before you open your laptop.
