Connect Claude to Gmail and build 5 visual, interactive dashboards as Claude artifacts. Maps with pins, charts, color-coded leaderboards and copy-paste action buttons, each in one file you can save and open in your browser.
Years of flight confirmations, subscription receipts, delivery orders, return labels and price-change emails are sitting in your Gmail. Almost nobody uses any of it as data.
Once Claude is connected to Gmail, it can search your inbox like a database, do the math and build you an interactive artifact with real charts and real buttons.
One catch: Claude can read email text but not the contents of attachments, so receipts that only arrive as PDFs won’t be counted. (What the Gmail connector can do · Connector setup)
01
Your Travel Map
A world map with a pin for every trip in the last 5 years. Hover for the city and dates, click for the full trip. Underneath you get total trips, cities, countries and spend, a searchable trip list and a year-by-year chart of your travel rhythm.
02
The Subscription Kill List
Your monthly and annual subscription totals, every subscription ranked by cost and a category breakdown. Then the part everyone screenshots, the Kill List, with a ready-to-send cancellation email behind every card.
03
Your Food Year-In-Review
One giant number for your last 12 months of food spend, then delivery vs groceries vs restaurants vs coffee, your top 10 places, your biggest single order and a daily average that hits hard.
04
Money You’re Owed
Matches every return you sent back to a refund. Refunded items sit quietly on the left. Missing refunds sit on the right with a button that writes the follow-up email for you.
05
The Price-Increase Tracker
Shows how much more your subscriptions cost than when you started, the biggest climbers, the price hikes that came with no warning email and a negotiation script for every one.
Pick One
Don’t build all 5 in one afternoon. Start with the question you’ve actually been asking yourself, like where your money goes or whether that refund ever came, and build that one first. Comment DASHBOARD on the original post and I’ll send you all 5 prompts in one DM.
