  @mSanterre I did. Works really well. Problem is Google requires an email security audit that’s like 10-20k to even get and you have to get in order for Google even approve people connecting their Gmail accounts to your software. It’s quite the barrier to entry for a new saas.

  @nima_owji Annoying when you have a work and personal account and you switch between them, cursor > gmail > sign in then logout > cursor > grok > x > back to cursor > sign in.

  Promotions tab is a death sentence for your emails. 8-9 figure brands aren't clicking send and hoping for the best. They're guaranteeing inbox placement using tools like Maverick, MailMend, and Zaymo's inbox booster. All three do the same thing: they add a block of code to your emails that forces them into the Primary tab instead of Promotions. Why this matters more than most brands realize: An email in Promotions competes with 50 other brand offers the customer will never scroll through. An email in Primary sits next to messages from their mom and their boss. The attention quality is completely different. Primary tab emails get significantly higher open rates, more clicks, and most importantly, more replies. Those replies signal to Gmail that your emails are wanted, which trains the algorithm to keep routing you to Primary on every future send. Most brands spend thousands on copywriters and designers to improve email performance while 60% of their list never even sees the email in the first place. Fix where it lands before you fix what it says.

  Your cold email isn't getting ignored. It's getting filtered. Burned domain. No warm-up. One inbox pushing 150 sends a day. Gmail decided you're spam before a human ever saw a word. Fix the infrastructure first. Deliverability is the game before the game.

  My voice agent pages a human when something on a call can't wait. It emails whoever's on duty with an acknowledge link. Click it, the alert is marked handled, the ladder stops climbing. Every single one was getting acknowledged within seconds. Before a person had opened the message. Enterprise mail security fetches every URL in an inbound message at delivery. SafeLinks, Proofpoint, Mimecast, Gmail prefetch. This is not new, the email marketing world has been fighting it since at least 2019 when Office 365 started unsubscribing people who never clicked anything, and the fix is the rule HTTP has had for twenty five years: a GET doesn't get to change things. Which I know. Everybody knows. My route had a comment on it saying "GET, because it is the target of a link in an email," which is true, and is not a reason to make it act. GET now renders a confirm button and changes nothing. POST records. There's a test that fetches the URL and asserts the alarm is still armed.

  Google says Universal Cart will work across Search, Gemini, YouTube, and Gmail. The hard problem is preserving buyer intent across handoffs. Tracking a price should not silently become permission to substitute a product, choose a merchant, or complete the purchase.

  Things that will never happen: • Your CEO will not text you about desperately needing gift cards • Your package is not stuck in customs pending a $2.99 fee • IT will never need your password to fix your password • The IRS will never DM you • A recruiter with a Gmail address is not offering you a $500k salary Happy scam awareness week. Stay cautious.

  i downloaded @bot and asked it to build a skill for wire requests that involve using Docusign. 1)it identified the form from my Gmail and built the skill 2)it was unable to connect directly with Docusign with the API key but said no problem it would just login to the account directly 3)i signed into Docusign for it. 4)it took about 10 minutes to add my signature 5)it placed a draft email wire request in my gmail in about 5 minutes overall smart to figure out how to do the task. very slow on execution. "About 20 minutes on the test run, from “do a $100 wire” to the draft showing up. Filling the form was a couple minutes. Almost all the rest was DocuSign: signing you in, then getting stuck on the file picker."

  i asked my Grok Bot what it could reach with my logins. the answer was $214,000 not what it did. what it could, at 4am, with nobody watching six bots. research, writing, outreach, ops, finance, support. the org chart everyone's posting this week. i built the same one then i read xAI's own docs and found the line none of those threads quote: separate Bots are not separate security boundaries six bots, one cloud computer. one filesystem. one browser holding one set of live sessions. memory is partitioned, capability is not so i mapped what that single machine was logged into: → stripe · $46,000 in refundable charges → business banking · $88,000 → the CRM · 2,400 contacts and every deal in flight → gmail · every invoice, contract and password reset i own → drive · 340 files other people build on → the deploy keys $214,000 of reach, sitting behind one browser session, driven by six sticky notes telling it what to be today you didn't hire six employees with six laptops. you deployed one laptop logged into everything day six it earned that lesson. outreach reported a perfect run - 640 sent, 100% success, zero errors. it had been wrong for nine straight hours. deduplicated the list on the wrong key, hit 96 clients twice, and matched two invoices to the wrong company. $11,300 about to go out the door nothing crashed. nothing turned red. by its own definition of done, it succeeded i caught it in four minutes because every bot writes one line before it acts: what it's about to do, why, and what it expects to be true after then i stopped sorting work by difficulty and started sorting by whether i can undo it: → ship it - wrong is cheap and obvious. labels, notes, drafts that never send → gate it - reversible, but i'd never notice. anything reaching a human, anything that spends → never - payments, refunds, payroll, deploys, permissions, customer data reach went from $214,000 to a bounded $3,400. same six bots. same speed. zero code, one evening they've since cleared their own $200/mo 42 times over here's the uncomfortable part. everyone posting the day-one screenshot has the same $214,000 sitting behind the same one browser, reporting 100% success to a lock screen at 11pm they have no line. no diff. no way to know go check right now what your bots are logged into. that number is your real exposure, and you've never once looked at it.

  INCREDIBLE! HE SPLIT ONE ELON MUSK’S GROK BOT AGENT INTO SEVEN, MONTHLY BILL DROPPED BY UP TO $22 same model, same tools, same agent, seven times the structure, and the bill went down not up.  the model wasn't the problem. his name is Naoki Yokomachi, and here is how he archived that: -> he runs TONaRi, a personal agent on SpaceX AI grok via Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and he'd built it the obvious way: one agent, 28 tools, all loaded on every call. the model wasn't the problem. the fixed cost of carrying 28 tool definitions on a call that needed maybe two of them, that was the problem. -> he delegated seven tool clusters, calendar, gmail, notion, diary, briefing, twitter, task, out to their own sub-agents behind a single tool decorator, leaving the main agent with 12 tools. the trade-off he names outright: more routing hops, more latency. here's the breakdown, tool by tool: - tool-definition tokens per call: 5,000 to 2,500, half gone. - fixed cost per call: 10,000 to 6,000 tokens, 40% cut. - monthly input tokens at his volume: 30 million to 18 million. - sub-agent split alone: about $11 saved a month. - shorter context window plus trimmed memory recall: another few dollars. - total: $18 to $22 a month, same model, same tasks, same user. -> so how many tool definitions is your agent still carrying on every call that it hasn't touched all week?

  CHATGPT WORK JUST REMOVED ONE OF THE BIGGEST BLOCKERS IN AI AUTOMATION. The login screen used to kill the workflow. Now the agent can keep going. What changed: → ChatGPT Work runs inside a separate cloud-based browser → When login is required, you enter the credentials yourself → OpenAI says the model doesn't see or store your username/password → After authentication, the agent resumes the task What this unlocks: ✓ Persistent authenticated sessions using cookies ✓ Background work even after you close the app ✓ Webhook triggers from Gmail, Slack, and GitHub ✓ Shared tasks your team or clients can copy and run ✓ Site Tools/WebMCP for more direct website interaction The practical shift: ChatGPT isn't just answering questions anymore. It can research, navigate apps, pull data, create deliverables, and continue multi-step workflows while you're doing something else. That's a much more useful definition of an AI "agent."

  2/ So this week I tried Grok Bot. Pretty damn good. Easy to use, which is rarer than it should be. Wouldn't let me connect Gmail. The app just gets blocked on the connect screen. That's the job. Try the thing. Hit the stupid error. Find out what's actually ready.

  @zeeg Hit the literal version on Gmail: search results render inside a display:none container, every row a zero-size box, any click on it correctly fails. Fix wasn't a smarter click, it was reading the thread id off the row and going to the permalink directly.

  this was spot on from @friedberg on this week’s @theallinpod and is part of the reason why some beaten-down SaaS stocks ripped this week vibe coding makes it easier than ever to build a tool that gets you 95% of the way there, but I’ve heard from so many teams who get stuck on the last 5% - spending more and more time trying to fix bugs, and eventually let the project fall off everyone has the same 24 hours in a day. do you really want your team spending that time maintaining software that isn’t core to the unique value you deliver to customers? and what happens when the person who built it leaves, gets fired, changes roles, or simply doesn’t have time to keep supporting something the rest of the company now relies on? when you pay for SaaS, you’re also paying for someone else to fix the bugs, keep adding features, provide support and make sure the product continues to work.. and the ROI on that will often be far greater than the money you save by building and maintaining it yourself here’s what Friedberg said as he was talking about his vibe coding journey, which eventually led to his company switching to Salesforce - landing him an invite to be on the $CRM earnings call with @Benioff: “We started building all these internal tools and eventually realized our time, our efforts, our energy is better spent building the workflows that are unique and create value for our organization uniquely versus recreating a bunch of software that other people have already made. Where’s your best ROI, your best return on time spent and your best return on dollars spent? It’s not on rebuilding a communications tool like Slack or a messaging tool like Gmail or a CRM tool like Salesforce.”

  @RebCoPTrainee I receive emails from patients’ hotmail/outlook etc accounts without issue. None go into my junk folder. I can also send reminders& forward stuff from my home accounts (gmx, gmail or yahoo) without the need to set an exclusion rule. I expect it depends on the individual Trust.

  On Shopify + Google Workspace and notice customers going silent after they order? We send a confirmation, then a design proof. The proof often gets no reply. That’s a problem. Shopify wants fast fulfillment for fraud protection. We don’t pull stock off a shelf. We make the thing. Waiting on proof approval burns the clock. Checked the domain. No DKIM. No DMARC. Our emails probably looked like spam. Turns out the customer might not be ignoring us. Gmail is because of our configuration.
