Newest first. Everything listed is running in production today; nothing
here is a roadmap.
Two layouts, docs, and integrations
NewChoose your layout: a Gmail-style full-width table, or split panes. Asked during setup and changeable in Settings, and it is per person, so two teammates can each use the one they are fluent in.
BetterUnread conversations are brighter with bold text and read ones sit a shade below them, the way Gmail does it. A list now tells you what needs attention before you read any of it.
NewDocumentation at /docs: short pages on connecting an inbox, assignments, comments, shared drafts, search, triage, rules, roles and analytics.
NewStripe in the right-hand panel: a customer emails and you see their plan, renewal date, last invoice and whether they owe you money, without opening another tab.
NewSlack and Discord notifications. Mentions and assignments post into your channel, subject lines only, and personal inboxes never appear there.
Team reporting, and an operator console
NewAnalytics for the shared inbox: conversations handled, replies sent, median first response time, what is still open and how long the oldest thing has waited. On every plan. Breaking the same numbers down by teammate is on Business.
NewOwners can change a teammate’s role from Settings → Teammates. Promoting an admin used to mean editing the database.
BetterEm dashes are gone from every message the product shows you. They read as machine-written, and this one is written by two people.
A first run that explains itself
NewA setup wizard at first sign-in: connect Gmail, name your shared inbox, invite the team, and optionally archive everything older than a date you pick so the queue starts empty.
NewThe new-message composer is full size, with attachments, Cc and Bcc, a Gmail-style formatting bar, signatures, templates and send-later.
Fixed@mentions now reach you whether or not the conversation is assigned to you, and the Mentions count updates live instead of dropping the last change in a burst.
FixedOpening a conversation marks it read on every route into it, including deep links, search results and the command palette.
Two kinds of shared inbox
NewA shared inbox can be an assignment queue (the badge counts what nobody owns) or a general inbox (the badge counts your unread, the way Gmail does). Set it per inbox.
BetterTeammates watching a shared draft see the assignee’s edits arrive live, with no reload.
Comments that feel like a conversation
NewInternal comments are chat bubbles with reactions, pin-to-top, and reply-with-quote on hover. Mentions highlight as you type and Enter posts.
BetterThe right rail is the tools rail: notifications on top, then context views, with search, theme and shortcuts at the foot. The left rail stays inbox navigation.
BetterProfile photos render everywhere an avatar appears, and the workspace name and icon brand the top of the sidebar.
Running on its own domain
BetterShareMail moved to its own infrastructure with a staging environment, automated backups, and push notification from Gmail rather than polling alone.
The floating-pane layout
BetterList, reader and context panes became one card on a canvas, with the comment bar pinned to the foot of the thread instead of hiding inside the reply box.
Analytics, and an export that means it
NewEvery action is on one activity timeline, with per-day charts and a recent-activity feed.
NewExport everything ShareMail adds to Gmail (comments, tags, assignments and the full audit history) as a zip, at any time, including after you cancel. Your mail is not in it because it never left Gmail.
Search that covers what your team said
NewSearch spans internal comments as well as mail, with an in:comments operator. The answer someone wrote in a note months ago is one query away.
BetterYour own inbox splits into Open, Subscribed and your personal mail, so the conversations you actually own stop competing with the ones you are only watching.
Bulk actions and merge
NewSelect several conversations for one action, and merge duplicate threads from the same sender into one.
Workspace colours
NewPick an accent colour for the workspace, or your own. Avatars and inbox dots follow it.
Drafts stop making noise
FixedSaving a draft no longer flips a read thread back to unread or pushes it to the top of the list. A draft is not activity.
NewEdit a shared draft in Gmail and ShareMail adopts the change, so the two never disagree about what you wrote.

became what it is now. See how it works →
