📬 InboxPilot - Smart Email Classifier & Cleaner (n8n + Gemini AI)

InboxPilot is an automation workflow built in n8n that uses Google Gemini AI to classify incoming Gmail messages, automatically delete unwanted promotional emails, and forward important email details to Discord for instant notifications.

---

📌 Project Summary

InboxPilot connects to Gmail, scans unread messages, and passes them to Google Gemini for classification. Emails are categorized into otp, security_alert, career, finance, transactional, personal, promotional, other.

• If classified as promotional → the email is automatically deleted.
• Otherwise → a notification with details (sender, subject, reason) is sent to a Discord channel.

This workflow runs every 2 minutes via a schedule trigger, keeping your inbox clean and important messages visible.
