What I Built
Built a simple email triage system that organizes incoming messages into clear categories and supports consistent daily processing.
- Gmail triage system for sorting and prioritizing email
- Clear categories for action, waiting, reference, and low priority
- Rules and filters to automate inbox organization
- Workflow for reviewing and processing emails consistently
- Simple structure designed for daily use without overwhelm
Key Decisions
Designed a lightweight system focused on usability and clarity rather than full automation or complex categorization.
- Kept categories simple to avoid over-complication
- Prioritized visibility of action items over full automation
- Designed system to reduce cognitive load, not just organize email
- Used rules and filters sparingly to maintain control
- Focused on daily usability instead of perfect classification
