Quartz turns Gmail into a focused inbox. It sorts every message by importance, and learns what matters to you over time. When you reply, it drafts in your own voice. And the AI runs entirely on your own Mac, so your mail stays end-to-end encrypted and never shared with AI providers.

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
