The problem

Every inbox cleaner wants the keys to your email

Most tools in this space ask for full access to your Gmail through Google’s API, which means your mail sits on their servers. ClutterCatch takes the other route: it reads the rows on your screen, the way you do, and never connects to your account at all.

See what needs you

Filter to real people and messages that ask you to do something.

Clear the rest

“37 newsletters older than a week → Archive”, done through Gmail’s own buttons.

Never deletes

Archive only. Everything stays searchable.

How it will work

Three steps, and you stay in charge.

  1. 1

    Open Gmail

    ClutterCatch reads the sender, subject and preview line of each row in view.

  2. 2

    Rows get a small label

    Newsletter, promotion, receipt, notification, person, work, cold outreach.

  3. 3

    Tidy up in batches

    Pick a suggestion and it uses Gmail’s own select and archive controls, 50 at a time, showing progress.

Where it will run

Where it will run

Gmail in Chrome.

Gmail on the web
mail.google.com, personal and Workspace accounts.
Pairs with PhishSweep
The two share their Gmail reader and are planned as a bundle.

Privacy, plainly

What it reads, and what it never does.

The whole point of this product is what it does not touch.

What it will read

  • Sender, subject and the one-line preview of inbox rows on your screen

What it never touches

  • The body of your emails, attachments or contacts
  • The Gmail API or your Google account
  • Deletes anything, ever

Those three fields are sent to our server and on to the AI model that labels them. We will publish exactly how long each party keeps them before launch, and we will not launch until that answer is one we are comfortable putting in writing.

Planned pricing

Planned pricing. It may change before launch, and waitlist members hear first.

Nothing is charged for joining the waitlist.

Questions

Fair things to ask.

Something else? support@codewithkolin.com

Why not use the Gmail API like everyone else?

Because it requires storing access to your whole mailbox. Reading the screen is slower to build and cannot do everything, but it means we never hold the keys.

Can it unsubscribe me?

It will list who sends you the most, with their unsubscribe links where Gmail shows them. It will not click them for you.

When will it be ready?

After PhishSweep, since they share a foundation. Join the waitlist for one email on launch day.

An inbox tool that never sees inside your emails.

Leave your email and you will hear once, when it is ready.

One launch email, nothing else. What we keep.
