Hey there, product peeps. We’re back with a better, faster, smarter version of our email app Courier. We spent 6 months working with beta testers to hone our summarization technology and we’re hoping you’ll give it a shot. Super duper changes in 1.0: - Servers will no longer fall down when you shoot them the side-eye, a brisk wind picks up, or you call them names. (Besides, who does that? Why would you call a server names? What’s wrong with you? Precious Penelope is a beautiful, intelligent, and scalable AWS instance.) - Higher quality NLP summaries via processing over 12 million emails. We really appreciate everyone from the beta pool who helped feed the gremlin (I know you’re out there reading this. 80% of you came from PH). We’ve spent a really long time working on getting this right. - Rethought the entire compose experience with a focus on speed and ease of use. It’s 200% better on my Much Better™ scale. - Fixed 400+ bugs and feature enhancements - Added more illuminati jokes because shipping anything with AI in it in the current social climate is scary and when I get scared I laugh; it’s that or cry. Jokes seem like a better idea. Seriously, Zuck? You’re not helping with my anxiety. Courier is currently optimized for English and available to US, CA, NZ, UK, and AU Gmail and Gmail for Businesses users.
I can only imagine the horror from someone named David watching the video about Courier

CEASE YOUR INVESTIGATIONS ▲
I'm hanging out with David tonight. He wants to chill out in an open park around other people. He said he will be wearing a ski mask in the summer.
Is there any of my emails sent to your servers to be scanned, or is it done on the phone directly?

You authorize our platform like any other Gmail oAuth client > we import and process your emails > we store the processed summarized emails in our production servers in an encrypted state. No one on our team is authorized to access the production databases. If you're curious about the security measures we take please review

Also, if you are ever unhappy with our service you can logout at any time and we will erase everything associated with you on our service. We are not in the business of selling or retaining user data beyond providing the service.

It would be impossible to do what we do without a serving layer between Gmail, Courier, and the client on your device. An inbox can range from 3mb to 10gigs of information. The summary data has to live somewhere and be readily available when you ask for it.
Thank you for all your comments !

np, this is basically 3 years of my teams life so anything I can do to clarify or address questions I am happy to do.
I like the concept. Will try it out to see if it really works like magic
Maker
if it doesn't I'll give you a full refund. Deal?
wait! I didn't realize I have to pay to try. I'll look into the pricing and see if that's something I'm comfortable paying for then :)
Maker
The app is free. Did I mention I am bad at jokes? Now I know why my standup never took off :(
haha! you weren't that bad. I laughed after all. it took me a while to come back to redeem my promise, but I just realized I'll have to own an iPhone to be able to do it. maybe let me know next time you have something for Android? ;-)
Good job,, Recommended!!
Maker
thaannkk! hit us up if you have questions/feedback!
sure, thank you..
2 years later and the service apparently no longer exists…
Makes email gooder. Recommended.
Maker
much gooder better
For ITA AppStore?
Maker
Hopefully someday when we support a larger language set.
Any plans for Android?? This honestly seems god-sent, if only I could actually use it! :(
Maker
Not at this time. Ideally we'd partner with an existing Android client instead of build one.
hope you make it!! Seriously, if this works as advertised, it's reason enough to buy an iPhone for people who deal with tons of email and constantly miss important emails because of all the junk. Outlook for Android does a good enough job of separating the automated emails from those coming from actual people, but Courier takes it to another level with the summaries and tasks!! I'm SO hyped about this app and can't try it!! 😢 Please partner with Microsoft to build the ultimate email client :)))) 💙
