# Generate and send a daily email digest with AI

> Use a scheduled trigger + AI Generate to summarize the day's activity and email it to your team

<Tip>We recommend building automation examples directly in AI chat. Just describe the workflow you want, and AI will handle the full setup for you, including the trigger, actions, script, and configuration.</Tip>

## Build with AI

Open the AI Chat in your table's right sidebar and tell AI what you want. For example, you can say:

*"Every day at 6pm, find all tasks completed today, summarize them into a brief report, and email it to [team@yourcompany.com](mailto:team@yourcompany.com)"*

AI will create the complete workflow automatically. You can review the generated script, test it with real data, and enable the workflow when ready.

## Manual setup

1. **Create a workflow** with trigger **At Scheduled Time** — daily at 18:00.
2. **Add an action** → **Get Records**.
   * Table: **Tasks**
   * Filter: `Status` **is** `Completed` AND `Completed At` **is** `today`
3. **Add an action** → **AI Generate**.
   * Prompt:
     ```
     Summarize these completed tasks into a brief daily report.
     Group by category if applicable. Keep it under 200 words.

     Tasks: <insert Get Records output via +>
     ```
   * Output Type: **Text**
4. **Add an action** → **Send Email**.
   * To: `team@yourcompany.com`
   * Subject: `Daily Task Report`
   * Body: insert the AI Generate output (via **+**)
5. Test each step, then **enable**.

## Variations

* **Weekly digest:** change the schedule to Fridays and the filter to "past 7 days".
* **Customer activity digest:** query a CRM table for new interactions and summarize.
