Create email draft

Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.

Why this helps

Neurodivergent founders often struggle with time-blocking and planning; manually copying tasks into email drains energy before the week starts.

  • Draft ready to send to your team or yourself
  • Reduces decision fatigue on what to prioritize
  • Weekly review built into your email routine

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtable and Gmail to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'Every Sunday at 6pm, create a Gmail draft with my Airtable tasks for next week.'
  • 3Notis formats the task list in the draft, organized by project or priority.
  • 4Choose your notification channel to remind you the draft is ready.
  • 5Edit the draft subject line or add context, then send.

Questions about this workflow

Can I choose a different day or time?

Yes. Pick any day of the week and time that works for you.

Will the draft have to-do formatting?

Yes. Notis creates checkboxes or bullet points so you can mark tasks as done directly in the email.

Can I send the draft to team members?

Of course. Edit the recipients in the draft, add your own context, then send.
