Hi HN! BreakRoom is a tool that lets you upload files, then uses the information in them to draft messages, responses, and other types of documents.

I felt like existing AI tools require careful prompting to get usable results, making them hard to use for less tech/AI savvy users. I built BreakRoom to let users get usable results with very little prompt engineering — it uses information from your repository of files when relevant, and has a pre-written set of chain-of-thought prompts for each use-case.

Full transparency, I wanted to build a tool that did all this directly within a Gmail inbox, but Google’s new security audit requirement for sensitive scopes was a barrier to entry. I figured I’d build something quick and dirty to validate usefulness and iterate first. I wanted people to have a little fun with it too so check out the "After Hours" toggle on the top right :)

Thank you to anyone that uses BreakRoom and/or provides feedback.

Thanks!
