Install

Requires macOS 13 Ventura or newer. The build is universal for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, Developer ID signed, and notarized by Apple.
Included
- Native AppKit unified inbox with local SQLite and fast search
- Gmail OAuth, bounded IMAP synchronization, and SMTP sending
- Complete Gmail conversations with lazy thread loading
- Optimistic archive, trash, and read actions
- Reply, reply all, and forward
- Rolling message-body prefetch with a bounded disk cache
- Optional one-sentence AI summaries using your own OpenRouter key
Known limitations
- Gmail is the only connected provider
- Google OAuth verification is incomplete; new users see Google’s unverified-app warning, and the client is subject to the 100-new-user cap
- New-message composition and attachments are not complete
- There is no offline SMTP outbox or automatic updater
