    Hi HN! A few friends & I have just spent the past ~2 years building a new kind of email app for iOS. It's now available in GA and we think some of you might find it interesting. Why another email app, you ask? We think that while many interesting attempts at one-upping Gmail were made in the past 25 years, no one could really solve the core problem we all experience with email: information overload. Of course, LLMs have completely changed that, as they finally offer a path to do refined triage of your inbox. However, as anyone who's tried the AI features most email apps offer nowadays, they…

    I run multiple projects and D2C brands, which means I manage 6 different Gmail accounts and easily get 100+ emails a day - team updates, invoices, customer queries, newsletters, OTPs… everything mixed together. After missing a few important emails that actually cost me money, I realized the problem wasn’t the number of emails, it was how hard it was to make sense of them. So I built Supamail, an AI-powered inbox that helps you read less and understand more. Here’s what it does: - Emails in last 24 hrs shrink into clear summaries, smart categories, and easy replies so you never feel…

    I'm a control freak, the thought of having AI auto-replying to emails is ridiculous. Every founder I've met are the same way, just typing the words "Put your support/sales on auto-pilot" makes me cringe. I built min. to help me and my teammates with emails. Who should read it, who should reply, when to follow up, etc. min. is: - A simple email interface to manage both private and team inboxes. - An AI-native inbox that sorts and prioritizes messages into custom labels and folders. - A replacement for patchwork of CRMs, helpdesks, and spreadsheets with just… email. - Conversational…

    Hi HN :) really excited to share this with you. The one thing AI reliably does is generate noise. Half the tools I see launch are just machines for producing more noise across more channels. And people are starting to see this in the form of emails in their inboxes as spam filters are struggling. There used to be a useful signal in email: the effort a sender put into customizing a message was a rough proxy for how relevant it actually was. AI killed that. Now it's customized slop with the appearance of effort with none of the cost. It is painful that the open internet / open channels…
