ActiveInbox

Organize Gmail with tasks, folders, notes and follow-up reminders

Visit ActiveInbox

ActiveInbox works inside Gmail as a browser extension. It lets users assign due dates to emails, group work into project folders, break conversations into sub tasks and notes, and keep a dedicated Follow Up (Waiting On) area for things requested from other people. It also surfaces related emails while composing a reply. An AI assistant can generate a personalized guide describing how to use the tool for a given role and set of problems.
