Find files without digging through folders
Ask Carly to locate a file in your Google Drive by name, type, or keyword. She'll send you the link so you can open it immediately — no scrolling through nested folders.
Create and organize folders
Tell Carly to create a new folder in Google Drive — for a client, a project, or a trip. She'll set it up in the right location and confirm with a direct link.
Share files with the right people
Email Carly to share a file or folder with specific people. Just give her the file name and the email addresses, and she'll set the permissions and send you a confirmation.
Get recent file activity
Ask Carly what's been added or modified in a folder recently. She'll pull up the latest activity so you can stay on top of changes without checking Drive yourself.
Why teams use AI to manage Google Drive
Google Drive is where most teams store everything — proposals, reports, contracts, spreadsheets, presentations. But as Drive fills up, finding the right file gets harder. Nested folders, inconsistent naming, files shared across multiple people — it all adds up to wasted time searching and clicking.
An AI assistant that connects to Google Drive solves this by letting you search, share, and organize files through email or text. You describe what you need in plain language and the AI handles it inside Drive. No tab-switching, no folder-diving, no permission dialogs. The files stay in Google Drive with the same sharing settings and folder structure — you just interact with them faster.
How Carly works as your AI Google Drive assistant
Carly connects to your Google Drive (or Google Workspace shared drives) through OAuth. Once connected, you manage files by sending Carly an email or text. There's no Chrome extension or Drive add-on to install.
Ask Carly to find a file by name or keyword and she'll locate it in your Drive and send you the direct link. Tell her to share a document with specific people and she'll set the permissions — viewer, commenter, or editor — and confirm. Need a new folder for an upcoming project? Email Carly the folder name and location and she'll create it.
Carly can also tell you what's changed in a folder recently — new files added, documents modified — so you can stay on top of team activity without checking Drive yourself. This is especially useful for managers who oversee shared project folders or anyone who collaborates across multiple Drive locations.
Who uses an AI assistant for Google Drive
Project managers who share files with clients and need to set permissions quickly between meetings. Sales teams that store proposals and contracts in Drive and need to pull up documents during calls. Executives who want a file found and shared without navigating Drive themselves. Remote teams spread across shared drives and folders who lose time searching for the latest version of a document.
If you use Google Drive every day but find yourself spending too much time finding, sharing, or organizing files, Carly handles those tasks from your inbox or phone.
