The stakeholder update,drafted in Gmail for you
Every product owner owes someone a status email. The weekly note to the sponsor, the heads-up to the steering group. Khint turns your rough sprint notes into a polished update and drops it straight into a Gmail draft from one shortcut, so you review and send instead of writing from scratch.
The blank email
is the slow part
You already know what happened this sprint. It is scattered across your notes, your tickets, and your head. The friction is turning that into a readable update in the right tone, then getting it into the right place. Most people copy notes into a chatbot, copy the answer back, then open Gmail and paste again. Khint collapses that: its three pillars, Agents, Capture, and Memory, let one shortcut draft the email from your real context and file it into Gmail, where you give it the final read.
From sprint notes to a Gmail draft
Five steps, and you approve the last one.
Save the update as a reusable Action
The weekly stakeholder email is the same shape every time: what shipped, what slipped, what needs a decision. Build it once as an Action, type a one-line description and press Generate, then Improveto lock in your tone. Now “Draft stakeholder update” lives behind Cmd+Shift+K instead of in your head.
Let Memory carry the sprint's context
Start a Memory session at the top of the sprint. As you capture notes, refine tickets, and pull issues, Khint keeps a compacted summary of the thread of work, and that summary rides along when you run the drafting Action. The email comes out grounded in what actually happened, not a generic template. The session stays in a local database on your Mac.
Draft it straight into Gmail
Select your rough notes, open the palette, and run Create draft in the GMAIL section. The Action polishes the text first, then the draft is filed into your Gmail Drafts, subject and body ready, so you open it, give it a final human read, and hit send yourself. Connect Gmail once on the Integrations page and the row is there in the palette.
Send with a confirm gate, or reply in a thread
Want to send from Khint? The Send email row collects the recipient and subject, shows you a preview of the whole message, and only fires after you type “yes” to confirm: no accidental sends. Following up on an existing conversation? Use Pull thread or Search to bring the thread in, draft your reply on top of it, and file that back as a draft.
Make it one keystroke with a Workflow
Chain the two steps into a Workflow: an Agent step that rewrites notes into the update, then a Create draft step that files it into Gmail. Pin the recipient in the editor once, and a single shortcut takes selected notes all the way to a ready-to-review Gmail draft, each run logged into your active Memory session.
A draft you check, not an autopilot
A stakeholder email is a human message, so Khint keeps you in the loop by design. Create draft files the message into your Gmail Drafts: it never sends. If you do send from Khint, the flow shows you a full preview and waits for you to type “yes” before anything goes out. And only the text you selected leaves your Mac for the AI step; if you would rather the whole update read like your weekly status report, build that Action once and reuse it. Prefer to keep the model call off Khint's servers entirely? Add your own Anthropic key: the privacy-first walkthrough covers exactly what does and does not leave the device.
Common questions
How do I connect Gmail to Khint?
On Khint's Integrations page, connect Gmail: it uses Google sign-in (OAuth) rather than a pasted password, and the token lives on your Mac. Once connected, the palette shows a GMAIL section with Create draft, Send email, Pull thread, and Search rows; you can toggle which of those appear. Creating drafts and sending both need the compose permission, so if you first connected read-only, disconnect and reconnect to grant it.
Does Khint send emails automatically behind my back?
No: sending is always a step you trigger, with a gate. The Create draft row writes the message into your Gmail Drafts so you open it, read it, and hit send yourself in Gmail. The Send email row goes further but is deliberately careful: it collects the recipient and subject, shows you a preview of the whole email, and only sends after you type "yes" to confirm. Nothing leaves your outbox on autopilot.
Can I make the update reflect what I actually worked on this sprint?
Yes: that is what Memory is for. Start a Memory session for the sprint and Khint keeps a short, compacted summary of what you have been doing, which rides along when you run the drafting Action. So the email is written from your real thread of work, not from a blank prompt. Memory sessions live in a local database on your Mac and are never synced to Khint's servers.
Can I turn rough notes into a Gmail draft in one keystroke?
Yes. Chain the steps into a Workflow: an Agent step that rewrites your notes into a stakeholder-ready update, followed by a Create draft step that files the result into Gmail. Pin the recipient in the editor, and one shortcut takes selected notes all the way to a ready-to-review draft, logged into your active Memory session as you go.
