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.by raffaeleg

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 :)by jnnnthnn
