AI Email Editing in Gmail

Written by Antidote 71 | Sep 25, 2026, 7:34:20 PM

Crafting high-converting sales outreach often requires tweaking drafts for tone, clarity and conciseness, but switching between your email inbox and a separate AI tool kills momentum. HubSpot’s AI Email Editing brings intelligent text generation straight into your Gmail compose toolbar, allowing you to refine your copy right where you work.

 

What This Update Does

HubSpot has integrated Breeze AI assistant controls directly into the Gmail Compose window via the HubSpot Sales Chrome Extension. Sales reps can now highlight any part of an email draft to trigger instant AI edits, such as rewriting, shortening, expanding or adjusting the overall tone and swap in the generated text with a single click, without ever leaving Gmail.

 

Why It Matters

Forcing sales reps to leave their inbox to generate or polish email copy creates unnecessary friction and breaks their workflow.

  • Contextual Intelligence: Access HubSpot’s CRM context, contact data, deal stages and brand voice guidelines directly inside your Gmail composer.
  • Faster Outreach: Polish initial drafts or adjust messaging tone in seconds, dramatically reducing the time spent drafting personalized one-to-one emails.
  • Seamless Workflow: Eliminates the copy-paste routine between third-party AI windows or the HubSpot CRM app and your primary email client.

 

How to Customize It

To start editing your Gmail drafts with AI:

  1. Make sure you’re running version 3.1.1.43314 or later of the HubSpot Sales Chrome Extension.
  2. Start drafting a new message or reply inside Gmail.
  3. Click the new AI icon in the Gmail toolbar to open the "Edit with Breeze" workspace.
  4. Highlight text and choose your desired AI command (Rewrite, Shorten, Expand or Change tone).
  5. Review the AI-generated draft and click Replace to update your email body instantly.

 

 

Who Gets Access

This extension upgrade is available across all HubSpot hubs and tiers.

 

Final Takeaway

Stop copying and pasting drafts into external AI tools. Update your Chrome extension today to start using Breeze AI inside Gmail, cut email response times and keep every outreach touchpoint on brand.
