What they did
1) Open Inbox Cleanup at cleanup.upstream.do with a Gmail account you can authorize for mailbox access. 2) Choose a cutoff date for the older messages you want archived. The service moves archived mail into All Mail, where it remains searchable. 3) Review the additional message groups suggested by its AI categorization and choose which groups to archive. For recurring low-priority notifications, review its proposed filters that skip the inbox and retain messages under a label. 4) Check the resulting inbox and labeled mail; use the service's undo option if the inbox changes need reversing.
Worth knowing
The author says AI steps send sampled sender/recipient details, subjects and truncated bodies to OpenAI. Gmail API calls run client-side; this does not make the AI categorization entirely local.
