Funnel Draw / Integrations / Gmail
Funnel Draw + Gmail
Connect Funnel Draw and the Gmail connector to the same AI, and it can write the follow-ups a step plans (after a call, a quote or a webinar) as drafts in your Gmail. You read them in Gmail and send them yourself; Claude asks before it sends anything.

How it works
- Follow-ups the funnel counted on The step's timing and message become real drafts, so the planned reply rate has emails behind it.
- Personal, from your own inbox The AI can read the thread it answers, so each draft fits the person.
- Nothing sends silently Claude's Gmail connector asks for approval before sending, replying or forwarding by default.
Set it up
Connect Funnel Draw to your AI
In Funnel Draw, open Workspace → Integrations → Claude and ChatGPT and copy https://app.funneldraw.com/mcp. In Claude, go to Customize → Connectors → + Add → Add custom connector, paste it and connect; in ChatGPT, go to Settings → Apps → Advanced settings, turn on Developer mode, then Create app with the address and OAuth. Sign in to Funnel Draw and pick the workspace the AI works in.
Connect Gmail to the same AI
In Claude, go to Customize → Connectors, choose Gmail and sign in with your Google account (on Team and Enterprise, an Owner enables it first). ChatGPT also has a Gmail app in its apps directory.
Ask for the drafts
For example: "Read the Follow-up step in my Dental clinic funnel. Find this week's emails from people who asked for a whitening quote and draft a follow-up to each in Gmail. Don't send."
Review in Gmail Drafts
Open Drafts, edit, and send the ones you like.
Note the result on the step
Ask the AI to add the Gmail link and what it made (how many drafts and replies) to the step's notes with update_funnel, or paste it on the step yourself in the canvas. The next time the AI reads the funnel with get_funnel, it sees what is already done.
Ideas to try
When quotes go unanswered, Gmail gets the follow-ups
A dental clinic's AI finds 11 quote requests from this week and drafts a follow-up for each from the step's message.
When a webinar ends, attendees get a draft each
A B2B SaaS's AI drafts personal follow-ups to the people who asked questions, with the offer the funnel plans next.
When replies come in, the step's reply rate is checked
The AI counts replies to the drafts you sent and notes the real reply rate next to the planned one.
Questions
Does Funnel Draw connect to Gmail directly?
No. Funnel Draw has no direct Gmail integration. Your AI holds two connections, Funnel Draw's MCP and Gmail's own, reads the step from one and works in the other. Funnel Draw never sees your Gmail login.
Can Claude send emails from my Gmail?
Claude's help center says it can send, reply and forward, and asks for your approval before each one by default. Ask for drafts if you want to send yourself.
Can it read attachments?
Claude's Gmail connector reads attachment metadata, not the attachment's content.
