Most "AI email" features are a summarize button. Inbox Hero is a working assistant that acts on your inbox around the clock:
- AI auto-filing (Later): bulk mail, newsletters, receipts and notifications move out of your inbox into an Inbox Hero/Later folder automatically — the SaneBox idea, done with AI. Every move is one-tap undoable and it learns from your corrections.
- Ask your inbox: "What am I waiting on?", "Did the contract land?" — ask in plain English and the AI reads your mail and answers.
- Quick Reply: Inbox Hero drafts replies in your voice; glance, tweak, and send with a swipe.
- Fraud & phishing protection: an optional scanner reads incoming links and messages and quarantines phishing, scams and malware into a dedicated Fraud folder — a security layer none of the folder-only tools offer.
- Custom folders: route any sender or keyword into a folder you choose; your rules always win.
- Works everywhere: Gmail via Google, plus iCloud, Yahoo, Fastmail and other IMAP mailboxes with an app password (Outlook.com is not supported yet).
It sounds like you, because it learns from you
Inbox Hero studies how you actually write — greeting, sign-off, length, tone — and drafts replies that match, so approving a draft feels like something you wrote. You always review before anything sends; nothing goes out on its own.
Private by design
Inbox Hero reads the minimum it needs, treats every message as untrusted data (so a cleverly-worded email can't hijack the AI), encrypts your access tokens at rest, and lets you disconnect instantly. It's the assistant power without handing over the keys.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI email assistant?
The best AI email assistant does more than summarize — it triages, drafts, searches, and protects. Inbox Hero auto-files bulk mail, drafts replies in your voice, answers natural-language questions about your inbox, and quarantines phishing, and it is free for 30 days.
Can an AI email assistant reply for me?
Inbox Hero drafts replies in your voice and lets you send them with a swipe after a quick review. It never sends automatically — you stay in control of every message that goes out.
Is an AI email assistant safe to use?
Inbox Hero encrypts access tokens at rest, requests minimal permissions, treats email as untrusted data to prevent prompt-injection, and lets you revoke access anytime.
