Gmail Inbox Manager & Classifier — Help with Claude

Busy inboxes mix service requests, consultation inquiries, payment questions, and random messages — forcing you to manually triage every email, label it, and write the right reply. Important leads get buried, response times slip, and follow-ups fall through the cracks.

A 17-node n8n workflow powered by Claude AI that reads every incoming Gmail message, extracts the key information, cleans and normalizes the data, then classifies each email into 4 categories (Services, Consultation, Payments, Others) — auto-labeling and sending the correct personalized reply for each type.

1. 1📧 Gmail Trigger — listens for every new incoming email in real time
2. 2🔎 Information Extractor (Claude) — pulls structured fields (sender intent, topic, key entities) from the raw email body
3. 3🔀 IF Node — routes valid extractions on the true branch, fallback on false
4. 4✏️ Edit Fields / Edit Fields1 — normalizes data per branch (true vs false path)
5. 5🔗 Merge — combines both branches back into a single clean stream
6. 6🧹 Clean Data — strips noise, signatures, and quoted replies before classification
