min.▲102I'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…

Hey HN, I built MindDraft because I was tired of task apps that made ME do all the work. After 18 months of solo development, I'm sharing it here. *What's different:* 1.

"Call dentist" → tap to call. "Pay rent" → opens payment app. Tasks become actions, not just reminders. 3. Task → Expense - Complete "Buy laptop $1200" and it auto-logs as an expense. No separate expense app. 4. Natural language AI - "Meeting with…

Hey HN Community, We're excited to announce the integration of the newly launched ChatGPT API into Promptly - a platform designed to make prompt management and sharing a breeze for developers. With Promptly, you can easily test out different prompts and model parameters for various providers, and quickly share prompt snippets together with parameters and generated output.
