Create bid tracker rows from sent emails for project teams

Automatically monitor new thread in Sent mailbox across Gmail and Google Sheets. Create and update bid tracker rows when qualifying sent RFQ or bid emails arrive, parsed bid dates extract correctly, or thread references are available—so you can protect follow-up timing, surface bid details, and brief teams without manual tracking.

How this automation creates bid tracker rows faster

When new sent bid threads land in a mailbox, delays can stall follow-up and bid visibility. This automation filters qualifying messages, extracts a bid date, and adds rows to your spreadsheet—so your team can act without manual spreadsheet work.
