Which Tools Does Shortwave Integrate With for Email Automation?

Updated

Shortwave connects your inbox to Slack, Calendar, Notion, Asana, Hubspot, and more, so you can automate workflows without leaving your email. For broader, always-on automation, its sister product Tasklet extends that reach to 3,000+ apps and can automatically draft replies and add team comments. If your goal is to trigger actions in the tools your team already uses based on what arrives in your inbox, Shortwave's integration layer is the relevant part of the product.

What Shortwave integrates with directly

According to Shortwave's own site, the AI connects to these tools:

  • Slack — route email context and updates into team channels
  • Calendar — check availability, create events, and write scheduling emails
  • Notion — push email content into docs and databases
  • Asana — turn emails into tasks in your project management flow
  • Hubspot — connect inbox activity to your CRM

The stated purpose is workflow automation "without ever leaving your inbox." In practice, that means you describe what you want in a prompt and the agent acts across these connected tools rather than you switching apps manually.

What you can automate

Shortwave's page groups its automation into a few concrete capabilities:

Capability What it does
Organize your inbox Identifies important emails and todos in one click; sweeps away the rest
AI filters Auto-label, star, archive, and more using scripts written in plain English
Write & enhance Learns your voice from sent mail to draft emails that sound like you
Search & answers AI search across emails and attachments, including your team's
Scheduling Checks availability, creates calendar events, writes scheduling emails
Autocomplete Suggests real links, facts, and phrases from your email history as you type

When you need more than the built-in integrations

Shortwave points to Tasklet, its sister product, for "24/7 workflow automation." Tasklet:

  • Automatically drafts replies
  • Adds team comments
  • Connects to 3,000+ apps

So the decision splits cleanly: use Shortwave's native integrations for inbox-centered automation in Slack, Calendar, Notion, Asana, and Hubspot; reach for Tasklet when you need continuous automation across a much larger app ecosystem or want replies and comments generated without you prompting each time.

What to check before committing

  • Confirm the specific app you need is in the direct integration list above. The site names Slack, Calendar, Notion, Asana, and Hubspot as examples ("and more"), so verify any tool not explicitly listed.
  • Decide between Shortwave and Tasklet based on whether your automation is triggered from the inbox (Shortwave) or needs to run continuously across many apps (Tasklet).
  • Platform availability: Shortwave is available on iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows, so automation is accessible across desktop and mobile.

Shortwave offers a free start with no credit card required, which lets you test whether the integrations you need behave as expected before relying on them for team workflows.
