Google is secretly your productivity AI fairy godmother.
No, really. It has AI tools built right in that can make your life SO much easier—without downloading a single extra app. But odds are, you’re not using them.
And that? Stops today.
These five hidden AI workflow productivity tricks will clear your inbox, organize your life, and make you wonder how you ever survived without them.
1. The Inbox Zero Hack That Feels Like Cheating
Imagine the relief, 4,000+ unread emails, gone in five minutes.
That’s not an exaggeration. Google’s AI tools let you mass-clear your inbox without manually sorting through thousands of messages. I walk you through exactly how to do it here in this week's podcast episode.
2. The “No More Back-and-Forth” Meeting Trick
Scheduling meetings is a time suck—unless you use Google’s Offer Times feature. One click, send the email, done. No more “does this time work for you?” nonsense.
3. The AI Workflow Productive Time Tracker That Calls You Out (In a Good Way)
Ever wonder where your week actually goes? Google Calendar’s Time Insights feature color-codes your workweek so you can see how much time you spend in meetings, deep work, or…accidentally doomscrolling.
4. The “Who Has Access to What?!” Crisis, Solved
If your Google Drive is a mess and you’ve ever had a mild panic attack over who can access what, this one’s for you. Google Shared Drive lets you control file access at a drive-wide level, so you’re not manually updating permissions one by one.
5. The Best AI Apps Feature That Saves Your Sanity
SOPs shouldn’t feel like a scavenger hunt. Google’s new Tabs feature organizes everything inside a single doc—so you’re not clicking through 97 different files just to find one piece of info. Game-changer.
