Technical Setup & Integration
Gmail OAuth Connection
Shortwave connects to Gmail via Google OAuth 2.0. All email data is accessed through the Gmail API, meaning you don't migrate away from Gmail — Shortwave sits on top of your existing account.
AI Filters (Plain-English Scripting)
Write automation rules in natural language that are compiled into server-side filters:
"If the email is a newsletter, label it 'Newsletter' and archive it"
"Star any email from my boss and mark it important"
