Zero has substantial potential, especially for knowledge workers, privacy-conscious users, and people drowning in email. Try increase trust in AI features through transparency
We built Zero to help people spend less time on email and spend more on what they truly care about. Zero allows you to write emails and organize your inbox in the way you want it to.
As a potential user, I have a suggestion: to put somewhere on the landing page that it works with Gmail. That would clear so many questions in an instant
But seems very interesting, I like that you emphasize the fast UI (Gmail is very slow). I'll try it out. Congrats on your launch!
@zot@aloizzie Unfortunately it appears to only be gmail right now. This is the most annoying thing about potentially exciting new email clients... they all launch with gmail only support and outlook or other support promised as "coming soon", which generally takes a year or never.

The story of this going from 0 (lol) to 1 was super interesting. A great example of building in public, from problem to idea right through to launch. It's open source too.
I'm hoping for an iOS launch in the near future. Good luck team.
Really appreciate what you’re building with Zero. Email takes up a huge part of the day for so many of us, and it’s refreshing to see a tool that focuses on giving control back to the user, not just with writing, but with organizing too.
Does Zero support custom rules or workflows to automate repetitive tasks (like sorting or tagging based on sender or content)? That could be a game-changer for productivity.
@shahriardgm Would love to learn more about this. Can you dm me on twitter? nizzyabi is my tag.

@nizzyabi@ajxb looking forward to trying this. Been waiting for a new email client for a while that fits. Question — what are your plans for a mac app, phone apps?

@zot thanks sergei! would love some feedback!
@zot Totally agree.
@zot Does it work only with Gmail?

@ajxb @gregstone14 Hey Greg! A native desktop and phone app is in the works!
How well does zero support markdown? I use mailmate purely because of its markdown first approach. But I love the idea that zero is going for.
What are the differentiators?
I can sort my gmail box with rules, I can query Gemini right from gmail, etc...?
What am I missing?
