Communication

Gmail + Thoughtly

Send and parse mid-call email confirmations, contracts, or follow-ups directly from your Gmail account.

On every call where the lead asks for a confirmation, a contract, a brochure, or a price sheet, Thoughtly sends the email — from your Gmail, signed with your name — before the call ends. The lead hangs up with the resource already in their inbox. No 'I'll have someone send it over.'

The integration uses OAuth-scoped Gmail send permissions and per-domain customization. Thoughtly can pull canned templates, swap in dynamic fields captured on the call, attach the right document, and send. Replies route to a shared inbox or back to the rep depending on your config.

Beyond send, Thoughtly can also read inbound replies and trigger follow-up calls when a lead engages with the email. The full thread becomes part of the contact's call context for the next conversation.

Common use cases

  • Mid-call confirmation emails (booking, quote, agreement)
  • Send templated follow-ups with dynamic fields from the call
  • Trigger a Thoughtly call when a lead replies to an outbound email
  • Forward call summaries to a rep's Gmail inbox automatically
  • Send post-call surveys or NPS prompts
  • Auto-attach contracts, price sheets, or brochures based on conversation

Why connect Gmail to Thoughtly

The integration is bidirectional, real-time, and runs on every Thoughtly plan. Here's what teams using Gmail get out of the box.

  • Send from your domain, not a generic relay
    Gmail OAuth means emails go out from your address with full DKIM/SPF — no spam-folder risk.
  • Mid-call sends close the loop
    Promise a brochure, send it before hangup. The lead gets it while they're still excited.
  • Templates with dynamic fields
    Use Gmail templates and let Thoughtly substitute name, time, product, and any captured field.
  • Read replies and trigger calls
    When a lead replies, Thoughtly can call back automatically — closing the inbound loop end-to-end.

Triggers and actions

Wire Gmail into Thoughtly's autonomous flows. Triggers start a call from a Gmail event; actions let Thoughtly do work inside Gmail without leaving the call.

TriggersEvents that start a call

  • Inbound email matchInbound email matches a rule (subject contains, sender domain is). Thoughtly fires a follow-up call.
  • Reply on a Thoughtly-sent threadLead replies to an email Thoughtly sent. The reply triggers a callback or routes to the right rep.
  • Label appliedMove a thread to a 'Call back' label and Thoughtly takes the thread.

ActionsWhat Thoughtly does in Gmail

  • Send templated email mid-callPull a Gmail draft template, swap in captured fields, send to the lead before hangup.
  • Send call summary to a repAfter the call, email the assigned rep a structured summary with transcript link.
  • Reply to an existing threadMaintain Gmail thread context — Thoughtly's reply lands in the existing thread, not a new one.
  • Attach filesPull files from Drive and attach them based on what the lead asked about.

Gmail + Thoughtly FAQ

  • Yes — the integration supports both Workspace (paid Google Workspace accounts) and free Gmail. Workspace is recommended for production sends because of the higher daily quotas and better deliverability.
