Hi Alex,

Could you send the revised outline by Friday and confirm a time for our review next week?

Thanks,
Maya

THREE PLACES ACTOR HELPS

Right there when the next decision appears.

Actor changes with your context, so the help matches the email you are reading, the reply you are writing, or the day you are planning.

01

Read with a plan

Open a Gmail message and get help sorting what matters: labels, action items, reply ideas, and relevant calendar context sit beside the thread.

In reading mode Label → extract a task → prepare a reply
02

Write in your voice

Start from an Actor draft or improve the words you already wrote. Ask for a clearer, shorter, or more persuasive version; reuse a saved prompt or email template.

In writing mode Improve draft → choose a prompt → review
03

See your day

Open the sidebar’s Home view for a daily picture of tasks, events, and reminders. Ask Actor a question when you need the context behind an item.

On the home screen Ask Actor → see tasks → check events
FROM MESSAGE TO MOMENTUM

More than a faster first draft.

The useful part of email assistance is what happens after you understand a message.

✓

See the signal in the inbox

Actor labels messages so you can spot the work that deserves attention and clear the rest with more confidence. See how Actor labels Gmail emails.

↗

Catch the hidden commitments

Turn requests in a message into editable tasks in Google Tasks, instead of relying on memory or an open tab.

✎

Get to a useful reply sooner

Draft from context, improve wording, or reuse your prompts and templates. You stay in control of the final email.

▣

Connect email to the day

Bring tasks, events, and reminders into one view and ask Actor what matters before the next meeting.

BEYOND THE SIDEBAR

One Actor, more ways to work.

The Gmail experience is the convenient entry point. Ask, Studio, and Memory give the same assistant more context and ways to follow through.

WHY ACTOR

A connected next step, not just nicer wording.

Many email tools stop after a summary or a sentence rewrite. Actor can connect the message to tasks, calendar planning, conversation, reusable context, and workflows. That helps you finish the job the email created.

Start with one message in Gmail. Bring in the rest of Actor when the pattern repeats. Learn more about automatically reply to Gmail emails.

03

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions.

Does this replace Gmail?

No. Actor works beside the Gmail account you already use in Chrome. Your messages stay in Gmail.

Do I need an Actor account?

Yes. The extension uses your existing Actor sign-in, and you connect the Google account you want Actor to help with.

Can I review a reply before sending?

Yes. Actor can prepare and improve drafts; you can review and edit them in your normal email workflow.

MAKE WORK MOVE

Give your next email a better next step.
