To use Shortwave, simply sign in with your Gmail account. Once signed in, you can leverage AI to summarize the key points from any email, helping you save time and cut through the noise. Shortwave also breaks down language barriers by understanding emails in every language. It offers hassle-free organization with built-in labels that auto-apply for common use cases. Additionally, you can utilize natural language to defer email delivery and streamline your workflow by grouping emails into bundles for batch processing. The service offers faster email management than Gmail filters and allows you to prioritize your work by pinning, reordering, and combining tasks. Shortwave also provides a modern chat experience, the ability to send AI-generated summaries to non-Shortwave users, frictionless email composition using Markdown, rich media, and mentions, as well as keyboard shortcuts for quick actions.
