👋 Hey Product Hunters— Filo Mail just landed on macOS, and your inbox finally has one brain across mobile and desktop.

When we rolled out Filo on iOS, it was the quickest way to test our AI in the wild—perfect for late-night triage and inbox check-ins on the go. But a lot of users kept asking for a desktop version to tackle the real daily grind. We listened. Today, that same battle-tested brain lands on macOS, so your main workspace finally feels as calm as your phone.

The Foundations (Still Free in Public Beta)

  • AI Summaries—One-line gist for any thread; skip the text wall.

  • AI Quick Reply & Draft Compose—Instant, context-aware responses and polished drafts at a click.

  • Inbox → To-Dos (auto)—Deadlines, links, and tasks lift themselves into a clean, actionable list.

  • Live Smart “Filter—“Show contracts,” “Mute promos unless urgent,” etc.—all in plain English.


What’s new on Mac

  1. Teach-able Smart Labels
    Create custom labels (Billing, Investors, Hiring…) and train them with natural-language rules—no regex gymnastics.

  2. Ask-and-act AI Chat
    >“Show mails I flagged urgent last week.”

    >“Summarize today’s receipts in one bullet.”

    >“Draft a polite nudge to the CFO.”

    >Type it once, Filo does the busywork.

  3. Keyboard-first speed

    Multiple windows, ⌘-K quick actions, and shortcuts for nearly everything—because power users live on muscle memory.

  4. Future-proof AI engine

    We keep upgrading the model under the hood so your summaries and replies stay razor-sharp—no upgrade tax, completely free during public beta.


Give Filo for Mac a spin and tell us what feels great—or rough—in the comments. Your feedback shapes the next sprint. Thanks for checking out Filo Mail for macOS! 🙏

Turning emails into a to-do list with AI is just genius, tbh—no more digging for action items in my pile of messages. Super hyped to try this out, team!

@cruise_chen Thanks so much, Cruise! 🙌 You nailed it—no more digging, just clear next steps from every email. Really appreciate the support.

If you’re on mobile a lot, we’ve also got an iOS app (same AI inside), with Android in the works. Would love any feedback after you try the macOS app—what feels smooth vs. what gets in your way. Thanks again for the support!

Looks amazing, Does it auto-detect action items and sync tasks to Reminders/Things without fiddling?

Justin Bao

@anwarlaksir Thanks! Yep—Filo auto-detects actionable stuff in your emails (upcoming meetings, flights to catch, subscription renewals, deliveries, etc.). For now you can manually push those to your calendar; Reminders/Things aren’t supported yet. Third-party integrations are on the way.

Congrats on your launch.🎉🎉

I knew about your iOS app, but the lack of a desktop version had kept me from using it. But thanks to your foolproof strategy, I got the chance to try out this great email client. Thank you.

I'll probably switch from my Super email client because I've seen the perfect integration with Todo and the native Mac app behavior is amazing even in this short time!

@d41 Thanks so much Dan 🙌 Glad to hear the desktop version finally hit the spot for you! Super happy you’re enjoying the Mac integration and Todo workflow — that’s exactly what we were aiming for. Can’t wait to hear more of your feedback as you keep using Filo 🚀

Filo Mail looks awesome! 👍

I usually don’t use the native Mac Mail app, but this AI-driven approach actually makes me want to give it a try. Automatically extracting tasks and summarizing emails could really save a lot of time.

This looks very interesting, would it also support Windows ?

@pratikpatel01 Thanks! Yes—Windows support is on our roadmap. We’re a small team, so we’re rolling things out one step at a time to keep quality high. iOS/macOS first, then Windows. Happy to ping you when the beta’s ready.

Email that auto-turns into to-dos? My inbox just sighed with relief. 💌➡️✅

Is there an offline queue so actions sync once Wi-Fi is back (handy on flights)?

Can attachments like contracts auto-generate calendar deadlines or reminders?

Any option to run labeling locally for privacy-sensitive industries?

Life-hack: add a playful stat (“Inbox unread: 21,734… send help!”)—readers relate instantly and upvote in solidarity.
