What it does
AI-native email client for Gmail with an AI assistant that searches, summarizes, drafts, organizes with AI filters, and supports team collaboration.
Strong fit
Gmail/Google Workspace users and small teams who want a capable AI assistant inside email (AI search, drafting, smart filters) plus shared threads and assignees.
Poor fit
Outlook/IMAP users (Gmail-only); people wanting a permanently free client; light users for whom $30+/seat/month AI features are overkill.
Limitations
Gmail accounts only; no free plan on the current pricing page; AI usage is capped per tier (requests/day, threads per AI search, AI filters); best models reserved for the $120 Max tier.
Privacy & data handling
