# an ai that manages your email over text

> Folk connects to Gmail and manages your inbox over text. It triages what matters, drafts replies in your voice, and never lets important email slip. iMessage + Telegram. $20/mo.

Folk connects to your Gmail and helps you stay on top of your inbox without living in it. From your iMessage or Telegram, folk surfaces the emails that actually matter, drafts replies in your voice, and follows up on threads that go quiet. You approve; folk sends.

## How folk does it

### connect Gmail in one click

From your dashboard, connect Gmail (or Outlook) with OAuth - no API keys, no setup. Folk gets scoped access inside your private sandbox.

### folk triages and drafts

Folk flags the few messages that need you, summarizes long threads, and drafts replies that sound like you. Ask "anything important in my inbox?" and get a real answer.

### you approve, folk sends

Review a draft in your texts, tweak it in a sentence, and tell folk to send. It can also schedule follow-ups so nothing slips through the cracks.

## Example conversation

**You:** anything important in my email today?

**folk:** Three worth a look: (1) your landlord wants a lease-renewal decision by Fri, (2) a recruiter at Stripe, (3) invoice from your designer, due. The rest is newsletters. Want me to draft replies?

**You:** draft a yes to the landlord and ask to keep the same rent

**folk:** Drafted: "Hi - happy to renew for another year. Could we keep the current rent given we've been on time throughout? Thanks!" Send it?

## FAQ

### Which email providers does folk support?

Folk connects to Gmail and Outlook via one-click OAuth. No API keys or developer setup required - connect from your dashboard and you're done.

### Does folk send emails without my permission?

No. Folk drafts and you approve. You stay in control of what actually gets sent, and you can edit any draft with a quick text.

### Is my email data private?

Yes. Folk runs in your own isolated sandbox with scoped access, and never trains models on your data. Your inbox stays yours.
