AI Email Assistant to Simplify Inbox, Scheduling, and Replies

Perplexity has launched a new AI-powered Email Assistant designed to handle inbox chaos with ease. Available to all Pro users on a 14-day free trial, the tool works with both Gmail and Outlook, offering an effortless way to organize, draft, and schedule — all within your email client.

The assistant aims to turn your inbox into action by helping users respond faster, schedule smarter, and stay on top of daily priorities.

From clutter to clarity with AI labeling

Inbox zero is now easier to achieve. The Perplexity Email Assistant automatically categorizes emails using smart labels that identify what needs attention and what’s for information. This tagging helps users focus on high-priority tasks while reducing time spent sorting messages.

Every email is analyzed securely, and none of the content is logged or used to train AI models. The company says all processed emails are deleted within 14 days, ensuring complete privacy.

AI that drafts replies in your tone

The assistant can compose context-aware, send-ready replies that match your writing style and tone. When you open an email, suggested responses appear automatically. With one click, users can personalize or send them.

This feature can save hours for professionals who deal with repetitive communication or lengthy back-and-forths.

Smart scheduling without the back-and-forth

Scheduling meetings becomes seamless with Perplexity’s integrated calendar management. When a sender proposes a meeting, users can add the Email Assistant to the thread, and it automatically checks availability, suggests times, and sends out invites.

It syncs directly with your Gmail or Outlook calendar, ensuring no overlaps and no manual coordination needed.

Designed with privacy at its core

Perplexity ensures enterprise-grade encryption for all data in transit and at rest. The company complies with GDPR and SOC-2 standards, emphasizing that user data is never used for model training.

In addition, all scheduling data and email drafts are automatically deleted after 14 days. This design ensures transparency and gives users full control over their information.

Start your day prepared with Perplexity

Beyond organizing and responding, the assistant can summarize key meetings, priority emails, and daily highlights. This helps users start their day with clarity and focus — directly from their inbox.

As the AI productivity race heats up, Perplexity’s Email Assistant stands out for its privacy-first design and cross-platform compatibility, making it a valuable tool for anyone managing a busy inbox.
