# Chrome Extension (Coming Soon)

> Lindy runs inside Gmail. Triaged inbox, a morning brief, drafted replies, and a sidebar chat, all without leaving your tab.

## Lindy, Inside Gmail

Open Gmail and Lindy is already working. Your inbox is triaged with color-coded labels, a morning brief tells you what happened overnight, and every email that needs a response has a draft waiting. Everything's written in your voice and ready to send in one click.

## Triage Labels

Lindy reads every incoming email and assigns it to the right category, shown as color-coded label pills right in your inbox list. Important messages stay front and center. Everything else gets filed away.

</Frame>

Your labels and categories are shared with your main Lindy settings, so anything you set up at [chat.lindy.ai](https://chat.lindy.ai) shows up in the extension too.

<Tip>
  Want to fine-tune your categories? See [Email Triage](/features/inbox-management/email-triage) for how labeling works and how to add your own.
</Tip>

## Draft Replies

Lindy drafts replies automatically, even if you don't have the Chrome extension installed. Open an email that needs a response, and your draft is already there, written in your voice.

The Chrome extension lets you refine that draft without leaving Gmail.

Use **Quick actions** like **Let's meet**, **Need time**, or **Not interested**, or simply ask Lindy to make changes. The draft updates instantly, right where you're working.

Review, edit, or send - nothing is ever sent without your approval.

<Note>
  Drafting works with or without the Chrome extension. The extension simply makes editing faster by letting you adjust tone, choose a quick action, or request changes directly inside the draft.
</Note>

</Frame>

<Tip>
  Drafts use the same drafting instructions as the rest of Lindy. See [Email Drafting](/features/inbox-management/email-drafting) to tune your tone, length, and sign-offs.
</Tip>

## Compose Bar

Lindy replaces Gmail's "Help me write" compose tool with an input that actually knows your context. From the reply window you can:

* **Rewrite**: reshape a draft to be shorter, warmer, or more direct
* **Schedule**: turn an email thread into a meeting
* **Ask anything**: type a request and Lindy handles it inline

Just type into the compose bar (*"Schedule, rewrite, or ask Lindy anything..."*) and Lindy takes it from there.

</Frame>

## Label Learning

When you re-label an email, Lindy notices. A toast confirms it learned from the change (*"Lindy learnt from your label"*), and future emails get sorted accordingly. Teach Lindy once, and it remembers.

## Sidebar Chat

A Lindy chat panel lives inside Gmail, floating or docked to the side. Ask Lindy anything without switching tabs. The sidebar supports:

* **Voice input**: speak instead of type
* **File attachments**: bring in documents for Lindy to work with
* **Model selector**: choose the model behind your chat
