Sources

Connected to your tools. Reading almost nothing.

Every connection is a one-time OAuth with the smallest read-only scope each provider offers. Here is exactly what each source shares with Briefly, what it never touches, and what it powers in your morning brief.

Gmail

gmail.readonly

Inbox triage without opening the inbox — who needs you, who is waiting, what can wait.

What Briefly reads
  • Subject lines and sender names
  • Short message previews, capped at 200 characters
  • Whether a thread looks like it needs action or is just FYI
Never read
  • Full email bodies or attachments
  • Drafts, spam, or trash
  • Briefly can never send, modify, or delete email — the scope is strictly read-only
In your brief
Inbox · 4 need action — James (Acme) wants a call this week; he proposed three times. Maria’s third nudge on the contract; she sounds tense.

Google Calendar

calendar.readonly

Your day at a glance — what is on, when, and what is about to collide.

What Briefly reads
  • Event titles and start/end times for today and tomorrow
  • Attendee names, so the brief can say who you are meeting
Never read
  • Event descriptions, attachments, or meeting notes
  • Video call contents or recordings
  • Briefly never creates, edits, or declines events on your behalf
In your brief
Today — 10:00 Adam (Series A advisor) · 14:00 Helena re v2 mockups · 16:00 dentist.

Notion

read-only integration

Know what moved in your workspace overnight without trawling the sidebar.

What Briefly reads
  • Page titles in the pages and databases you explicitly share with Briefly
  • Last-edited times, so the brief can flag what changed overnight
Never read
  • Page content, body blocks, or comments
  • Anything in pages you have not shared with the integration
  • Briefly never edits or creates Notion content
In your brief
Notion — 3 pages updated overnight. “Launch checklist” edited by Helena at 23:40.
$

Stripe

restricted read-only key

Revenue against your goal, every morning, without opening the dashboard.

What Briefly reads
  • Revenue summaries — MRR, new subscriptions, cancellations
  • Daily movement, so goals can be tracked against pace
Never read
  • Card numbers or customer payment details
  • Individual customer personal data
  • Briefly connects with a restricted read-only key — it cannot move money or change anything
In your brief
Goal · £10k MRR by Christmas — £9,180 · 91.8%, on pace for 9 Jun. Two new subs overnight (+£58).

Shopify

read_orders · read_analytics

Yesterday’s store performance, compared to what normal looks like.

What Briefly reads
  • Daily order counts and revenue totals
  • Trends versus previous periods, so the brief can say “up 22% on last Tuesday”
Never read
  • Customer addresses or payment details
  • Product costs, supplier data, or staff accounts
  • Briefly never modifies your store, inventory, or orders
In your brief
Store — 14 orders yesterday (£612), up 22% on last Tuesday. Best seller: the linen tote.
