Connect Gmail to Muse

Updated 29 October 2026

Yes — Muse can read, search and reply to your Gmail through Mailopoly. Connect Gmail to Mailopoly by signing in with Google, add Mailopoly to Muse as a custom connector, sign in and ask. One connection covers Gmail and every other account you own. There's no password to copy: Gmail connects with a Google sign-in, and you can revoke it from your Google account at any time.

Connect Gmail to Muse in three steps

1 Connect Gmail to Mailopoly

Start a Mailopoly account at mailopoly.com/sign-up — 7-day free trial, no credit card.
Choose Sign in with Google and pick the Gmail or Google Workspace account you want to connect.
Grant the mail permissions Google asks for. Mailopoly uses Google's restricted-scope process and is independently security-assessed for it.
Mailopoly starts syncing straight away. Cleanbox sorts the inbox as it arrives, so your assistant sees it organised from the first question.

2 Add Mailopoly to Muse

This part is the same whatever you connected in step 1.

Add Mailopoly to Muse

These steps are taken from public documentation, and we haven't yet checked each one in Muse ourselves. If a label doesn't match what you see, Muse's own help page, linked below, has the current wording.

Open a chat in Muse — on the web or in the app — and ask it to create a custom connector for a remote MCP server called Mailopoly at `https://fastapi.prod.aws.mailopoly.com/mcp-server/`. Muse walks you through the rest.
Sign in with your Mailopoly account when prompted, then choose what Muse is allowed to do. Reading, making changes and sending are separate permissions.
Back in a chat, ask.

Mailopoly isn't in Muse's connector list, so Muse takes it as a custom connector — the same connection, added with one sentence instead of a tap. Muse connects from Meta's cloud, so there's nothing to install.

3 Ask about your Gmail

Whatever you've connected to Mailopoly is what your assistant can reach. Some things people ask on day one:

What's in my Gmail Cleanbox that I haven't replied to?
Find the invoice from my accountant in Gmail and tell me the amount and due date.
Reply to the last message from my landlord from my Gmail address — say Thursday works.

What Muse can do with Gmail through Mailopoly

Search Gmail — and every other account you own — in one question. By sender, date, topic, or the half-remembered phrase somewhere in the body.
Read your Cleanbox, not your whole inbox. Mailopoly sorts Gmail as it arrives: personal and important mail in Cleanbox, promotions and newsletters in Other. Ask for either.
Summarise a thread, a day or a week. "What did the school send this week?" comes back as an answer, not a list of links.
Reply from your Gmail address, in your voice. Save a draft to Mailopoly for review, or send — sending is a separate permission and a confirm-first action.
Schedule a send for later, and cancel it if you change your mind.
Pull out invoices, events and deliveries. Amounts and due dates, calendar invitations, parcel tracking — extracted on arrival and added to My Day.
Find an attachment. Every attachment from Gmail lands in PolyBox, so "find the PDF the accountant sent" just works.
Unsubscribe, snooze, file and mark read from the chat, on whichever account the mail belongs to.

Reading, making changes and sending are separate permissions you grant when you connect, and you can revoke Muse at any time from Settings → Security in the Mailopoly app. More on the security page.

What goes wrong with Gmail, and the fix

Google Workspace accounts: if your organisation restricts third-party apps, your Workspace admin needs to allow Mailopoly before the sign-in completes.
More than one Google account: connect each one separately — Mailopoly searches them together, and your assistant can reply from whichever address the thread belongs to.
Muse doesn't offer to create the connector: say exactly what you want — a custom connector for a remote MCP server called Mailopoly at the address above — and that it signs in with OAuth.
Mailopoly isn't in Muse's connector list: add it as a custom connector instead. It's the same connection to your Mailopoly account.
