Email Magic — Mahesh Valu

Email Magic is a smart browser extension developed for Google Chrome that automates task and meeting scheduling directly from your email inbox. Designed to enhance productivity, this tool uses advanced AI capabilities to interpret email content and take intelligent actions based on the message context.

Key Features:
Cross-Browser Support: Works seamlessly with both Chrome and Firefox.
AI Email Interpretation: On clicking the "Magic Email" button, the extension reads the content of the
selected email using integrated AI models (ChatGPT and Gemini via API keys).

Task & Schedule Extraction: The AI analyzes the email to identify actionable items such as:
- Meeting scheduling requests
- Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) inquiries
- Other task deadlines or completion requirements

Smart Calendar Integration:
- Checks Google Calendar for existing meetings.
- If a proposed meeting time already exists, it detects and warns about duplicate scheduling.
- If no slot is available, it suggests the next 2–3 available time slots.
- Automatically schedules meetings and logs task details in Google Calendar if a slot is accepted.

Technology Stack:
- JavaScript/TypeScript (for browser extension logic)
- Google Calendar API
- OpenAI GPT (ChatGPT) and Google Gemini APIs for email analysis
- OAuth for secure Google Calendar access

Benefits:
- Eliminates manual calendar entries from email.
- Prevents scheduling conflicts with smart detection.
- Enhances workflow efficiency by bridging AI and calendar automation.
