Has anyone discovered a great way to pull down text in voice messages (txt & voice mail) from Google Voice into a Google sheet for backup and Source data for scheduling and project management?

 

I was trying to intercept voice messages forwarded to Google Mail and writing them to a table. Is there a better way to do it with AI? I'm a free subscriber but I'd be willing to spend 20 bucks a month to get this to work right if I had to

Hi ​@Kcfmike 

What AI does:

  • Spots due dates automatically ("call back Tuesday" becomes a real date in its own column)

  • Picks out action items ("send proposal" becomes a task)

  • Flags urgency based on words like "ASAP" or "emergency"

You can try these:

Two ways to do this within your $20 budget:

Option 1 – Keep your current Zap and add a Sheets formula:

  • Install GPT Workspace or ChatGPT for Sheets ($9-20/month)

  • Add a column with =GPT(“extract the due date from this:  ” & A2) 

Option 2 – Add AI directly to your Zap:

  • Insert an "AI by Zapier" step between Gmail and Sheets

  • One message = one task 

  • 500 messages = 500 tasks. Fits in the Starter plan's 750 tasks

  • No extra Zapier tasks. Flat monthly fee.

Hope this helps you get it sorted!

If you're still running into issues, drop a screenshot of the error and a quick description of what your Zap is doing, happy to take a look!
