Rapid inbox management is a real gap, especially for founders who live in email. We went the opposite direction with empla.io, AI agents that act inside Gmail so you do not need a new client. There is clearly room for both. What convinced you to build a native client rather than an extension or an MCP server on top of Gmail? Distribution is usually the piece that kills standalone email apps. | ||

Our opinion is that you need to rethink the UI from the ground up, which isn't a tractable proposition through an extension or an MCP server :) | ||
