Navi can email you now

Shipped today: Navi can send results straight to your inbox — chat replies, scheduled cron output, and generated files as attachments. Chat is great when you're at the keyboard; email meets you the rest of the time.

Up until now, everything Navi did lived inside the chat. Ask a question, get an answer in the thread. Set up a cron job, results show up as a new chat message whenever they fire. That works beautifully when you're actively using Navi. It works less well when you're in meetings, on a plane, or just not looking at the app.

So Navi can now send email. Not from your Gmail — from Navi's own address, reports@send.naviwork.ai, straight to whatever email you signed up with.

How to use it

Just ask. Any chat turn that ends with "...and email me the result" will do it:

Navi does the work in the chat (you can watch), then fires off the email at the end. The message arrives in your inbox formatted as a real email — headings, bullet points, tables, links — not a wall of raw markdown.

There's also a button for it. Next to the paperclip icon in the chat composer, you'll find a little envelope. Click it and the phrase "Please email the result to me using email tool" gets appended to whatever you're typing. Handy for long-running tasks where you want to walk away while Navi works.

Where it really earns its keep: scheduled reports

Cron jobs are where this gets good. You already set up agents that run on a schedule — the 8am calendar briefing, the Friday Linear roll-up, the Monday planning sweep. Adding email delivery takes them from "post into a chat I might notice" to "land in my inbox at the time I need them."

The email shows up looking like a real product email — styled, readable on mobile, dark-mode aware. It's not a "notification" with a link back to the app; the content is the email.

Attachments

Navi can attach files too. Anything it produces or downloads in its sandbox — PDFs, spreadsheets, generated charts, scraped reports — can come along as an attachment.

Current limits: up to 10 files per email, 10 MB each, 25 MB total. If Navi tries to attach something bigger, it'll tell you in chat and ask how to trim it.

A few things worth knowing

The email goes to you, not to anyone else. This is a safety feature, not a limitation. The tool Navi uses is hard-wired to your own address — it literally cannot be pointed at someone else's inbox by accident or by a clever prompt. If you want to email a colleague, use the Gmail integration, which goes through your actual Gmail account with your from address.

Replies work now — see the two-way email announcement. Originally these emails were one-way delivery, but Navi now reads replies too. Hit reply on any Navi email and the message lands back in the same chat session; Navi replies from the inbox.

The subject line is whatever Navi thinks fits. If you want to filter these in Gmail (say, to auto-label your daily briefings), tell Navi: "When you email these to me, start the subject with [Briefing] so I can filter." It'll remember.

The broader shape

Navi's design principle is: you describe the outcome, Navi figures out the steps. Email delivery is a small thing but it changes the texture of that outcome. You stop thinking about Navi as "an app I open" and start thinking about it as "the thing that puts finished work in front of me."

The 7:30am inbox arrival is the point. The chat is where the work happens; the inbox is where it lands.
