Talking to Runner

Runner isn’t a chatbot. It’s connected to your actual apps and it takes real action. You tell it what you need, it does the rest.

​

You talk, Runner runs

Other AI tools give you advice and ask you to take the next step yourself. Runner does the work. No special syntax. No commands. Just say it like you’d say it to a capable colleague.

The more you connect, the more Runner can do

With just Gmail and Calendar, Runner handles your daily briefing, inbox triage, and meeting prep. Add Slack, Linear, and Notion, and it becomes something closer to a chief of staff. Connect your apps →

Runner remembers

Tell Runner your preferences once and it applies them every time:

• “When you draft emails for me, keep them short. Three sentences max.”
• “Always check my calendar before suggesting meeting times.”
• “Emails from Sarah and James are always high priority.”

Runner gets better the more you use it. It learns how you write, who matters to you, and how you like things done.

Voice and files

Voice input. Click the mic icon to talk instead of type. Useful when you’re multitasking. Works exactly like typing, just faster when your hands are busy. Attach files. Drag a PDF, spreadsheet, or image into the conversation. “Review this proposal and give me the three biggest concerns.”

Tips

• Be specific. “Check the email from Sarah about the Q2 budget” beats “check my email.”
• Chain tasks. “Check my calendar, prep for my meetings, and draft a Slack standup” — all in one message.
• Correct it. If Runner does something unexpected, tell it what you wanted instead. It remembers for next time.
