Track Promises Made in Sent Email
A quick reply can create a real commitment. Put concrete promises onto the Breeze board before they slip from view.

Action
Create Card

Why this helps
Tasks promised in a sent reply are easy to forget once the conversation leaves the inbox.
- Capture concrete commitments as tasks
- Keep the sent message context available
- Ignore vague or non-actionable statements
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Breeze once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Breeze card when a sent message contains a concrete work commitment, preserving the promise and any stated deadline.
- 4Pick the Email Sent trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real sent commitment email and review the card.
Questions about this workflow
Will it create cards for every sent message?
Ask Notis to create a card only when the message contains a specific work commitment that needs follow-through.
Will it add a deadline if I did not write one?
No. Instruct Notis to use only deadlines stated in the message and leave the date unset otherwise.
