Track bills & due dates from email
The short answer
To track bills and due dates, auto-forward your billing and statement emails to an Airbox inbox set up for it. Your own AI reads each one and emails back the payee, amount, and due date in a consistent format — so upcoming payments are always visible and nothing slips through. Apply the Bills & due dates recipe to set it up in one click.
How to set it up
- Create a free Airbox address and connect your AI provider key.
- Apply the Bills & due dates recipe to set the extraction format.
- Auto-forward billing emails (utilities, cards, subscriptions) to that address.
Example
Subject: Fwd: Your statement is ready (* @claude extract payee, amount due, and due date; flag if due within 7 days *) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- ...the email you forwarded...
What you get
- Payee, amount, and due date per bill
- A heads-up on anything due soon
- PDF statements read, not just the email body
- A consistent list you can act on
Frequently asked questions
- Can it remind me before a bill is due?
- It flags due dates as bills arrive. For a scheduled rollup, combine it with digest mode to receive a periodic summary of what's coming up.
- Do I have to forward each email by hand?
- No. Forward or BCC manually when you want, or set an auto-forwarding rule in Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail so matching mail reaches your Airbox address automatically and runs through your AI with no extra steps.
- How much does it cost?
- Airbox has a free plan to get started. You bring your own AI provider API key, so you pay the provider directly for the tokens you use — there is no AI markup from Airbox.
- Is it safe to point Airbox at my real email?
- Yes — that's exactly what Airbox is designed for. Airbox only acts on mail from senders you allow, and it only treats the subject and first body line (or a (* … *) block) as instructions. Everything else in a forwarded email is quarantined as untrusted content and never obeyed for your own security and privacy. Your API keys stay fully encrypted.
