Declutter Gmail: Archive Inactive Emails with GPT-4

This n8n workflow is designed for professionals overwhelmed by cluttered inboxes. It runs on a schedule to fetch read emails older than 45 days from Gmail, then leverages GPT-4 for intelligent classification into 'Actionable' or 'Archive' categories. Emails marked for archiving are automatically moved out of the inbox, freeing up space and reducing mental clutter without manual effort.

Key benefits include significant time savings on email triage, improved focus on high-priority messages, and AI-driven accuracy in distinguishing important communications from outdated ones. It's particularly useful for sales teams in lead nurturing, where maintaining a clean inbox ensures timely follow-ups on potential opportunities while archiving newsletters, receipts, and low-value threads.

Setup is straightforward: connect Gmail OAuth2 and OpenAI credentials, adjust the schedule trigger (daily/weekly), tweak the email query filter if needed, and customize the AI prompt for specific categories like meetings or spam. Use cases span entrepreneurs managing solo operations, CRM sales pros nurturing leads, and anyone seeking hands-free inbox hygiene with minimal configuration.
