Getting started

Connect Gmail or Outlook, open your first event, check its original emails, and ask Weaver to help with the next step.

Start by connecting an email account and exploring a topic you already know. This makes it easier to see how Weaver organizes your email and to check its understanding against the original messages.

Set up your account

  1. Create a Weaver account.

  2. Choose Gmail or Outlook and follow the provider's connection steps.

  3. Review the permissions you're asked to grant. Work or school accounts may need an administrator's approval.

  4. Follow the setup progress while Weaver processes your recent email.

You can add or reconnect an account later in Settings / Connectors. Setup time depends on the account and the email being processed; the progress card shows the current stage.

The first sync starts with recent email, rather than importing your entire mailbox at once. See the initial sync details if you can't find an older conversation.

Open an event

On Events, choose an event about a project or conversation you recognize. An event groups related work across emails, so its title may describe a project rather than a single subject line.

Read the latest progress updates and look for open to-dos. An event can continue to change as related email arrives.

Choose an event from your home page. Beta reference image; labels may differ from the current product.

If the message you want isn't part of an event, check Sources. An imported email can remain a source without becoming an event.

See the whole picture

Open a source from the event to read the original email. Check the sender, the latest message, any dates, and the relevant attachments before relying on a summary or taking action.

Use Progress to follow progress and open work. Use Library to find the event's related material, including sources, files, and to-dos. Available categories depend on what the event contains.

Take the next step

With the event open, ask Chat a question that helps you decide what to do:

What changed on this product launch, and which decisions still need my input?

You can then ask for a draft or inspect an available to-do plan. Review the result, recipients, and any required approval before sending or running an action.

For more detail, read Events, draft a reply, or catch up on a project.
