Maily: Email That Sorts Itself Out
An iPhone email app that sorts messages into user-defined categories, answers questions about an inbox, and drafts replies without sending them automatically.
Field notes
Maily describes a categorization system whose labels are written by the user in ordinary language, rather than selected from a fixed filing scheme. It also supports questions over connected mail, such as asking what a landlord said about a deposit, and attaches the relevant message to the answer. The privacy section says mailbox contents remain on the phone, while message text may be sent to an AI provider for assistant features and is not used to train its models.
