One view for every inbox, with reply status

  • Needs reply and Replied badges keep follow-ups visible.
  • Manage inboxes keeps project setup separate from daily messages.
  • Read the inbox guide.

Conversation replies and AI assistant connections

Pro and Plus let you answer incoming emails and form submissions from your project address. Replies stay in the conversation history with sending and delivery updates. Answer in the app or reply directly to an email notification; Slack and Discord alerts link to the conversation.

Connect an AI assistant through MCP to find conversations and help prepare answers. OAuth sign-in offers separate permissions for reading, read status and sending. API keys are available for compatible clients. MCP access requires Pro or Plus, including reading.

Flexible alerts and a form builder you can test

Set up notifications once for all projects, including future inboxes, or add a destination for a single project. Mute a global alert for one project, verify additional notification email addresses with a code, and edit existing destinations without recreating them.

The contact form builder now shares its code generator with the app. Choose fields, preview the result, simulate success and errors, and test a real submission. Real submissions count toward your message limit. The generated form includes a hidden spam-trap field.

  • How it works, in the email address docs

  • No signup: a per-visitor sandbox, reset any time

Inbox redesign and multiple sources

The inbox is now a full-height mail panel with a persistent sidebar and tabbed navigation, so switching between projects and views takes one click.

  • Each inbox now holds multiple editable sources: email addresses and form endpoints feeding the same place
  • Rename, add, and manage sources without leaving the inbox

Value-first onboarding, landing page, and polish
