## Reclaim 1 hour per day managing emails.

### Get Meli to output exactly what you want

Gmelius gives users granular control over AI-generated replies. More professional? No problem. Mirror the sender’s tone? Easy peasy.

And now, custom instructions can contain up to 2,000 characters, up from 1,000.

**This means more flexibility to fine-tune behaviour and outputs.**

Meli now also looks at the last email in a thread to decide if it needs a reply.

So, if the last email includes the user in a CC/BCC or the last email is a promotion/notification, Meli can detect and ignore it. 🤫

## Auto-schedule just the meetings you need, no noise

Meli understands meeting intent based on emails and generates auto-replies with available slots. To turn this feature on, go to Personal inbox configuration settings → AI Scheduler → Toggle to “Enabled”.

Now, the AI auto-scheduler turns itself off for promotional emails, messages where you are CC/BCC’d, and emails originating from Google Calendar.

**Enjoy a cleaner calendar, with Meli by Gmelius.**

## What’s next? Catch up on a thread at a glance

In the next few weeks, we are launching the “conversation context summary” feature.

Users can click on the AI button at the top of any email for a quick summary of the conversation so far.

Stay tuned! And while you wait, check out the latest video from Gmelius, where we look at why 2.5 million users have deleted ChatGPT.

Keep freeing up time with Gmelius, and see you in May.

### AI Meeting Scheduler by Meli: No More Back-and-Forth

When an incoming email contains a meeting request, Meli automatically detects it and acts as your personal secretary. Meli checks your calendar availability, applies your scheduling preferences, and drafts a ready-to-send reply with suggested time slots.

The recipient can then book a time in one click.

**What makes it different:** This is not chat-based scheduling. You don’t need to prompt it, Meli acts when it matters.

The AI Meeting scheduler is available for all customers. [Learn more](https://help.gmelius.com/ai/ai-scheduler)

### AI Labels: Smarter Inbox Organization

Personal inboxes with AI Sorting enabled now generate **Gmail labels instead of Gmelius tags**, making it easier to organize and navigate conversations.

**What this means for you:** Conversations are automatically categorized into clear Gmail folders creating an improved visibility and structure in your inbox both on desktop and mobile.

## AI Sorting by Meli: Keep Non-Essential Emails Out of Your Inbox

For each AI category, you can now choose whether new emails should:
- **Stay visible** in your inbox, or
- **Be automatically archived** as soon as they’re categorized, and get closer to inbox zero thanks to Meli.

### How it works in practice

If you set the _Promotions_ category to Archive, emails identified as promotions won’t appear in your inbox. They’ll be automatically archived instead, keeping your inbox clear without losing access to the message.

## AI Dispatching by Meli: Assign Conversations to the Right Teammate

Incoming conversations don’t always land with the right person. Meli changes that.

When accessing the new AI Dispatching tab, you’ll be able to define who should receive the conversation once it’s detected, and Meli will automatically route each message to the teammate best suited to handle it.

_This AI skill is only available for shared inboxes, not personal inboxes._
