Hi there,<p>first of all, commendable effort!<p>On the one hand, I&#x27;d love, love, loooove to see something like that as reducing the cognitive load of managing email is one of the biggest improvements my digital life could see.<p>On the other hand, there are so many unhandled security risks in the scenario &quot;email + LLM&quot; that I wouldn&#x27;t even trust official integrations to be perfect.<p>See a short demo from BlackHat Conf here how a single email can essentially &quot;break&quot; Microsoft 365 Copilot: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=tr1tTJk32uk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=tr1tTJk32uk</a><p>Not even a need to open the email, just having it in your inbox.<p>Full talk (highly recommended): <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=-YJgcTCSzU0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=-YJgcTCSzU0</a><p>There are so many unadressed shenennigans when it comes to email and prompt injection that - unfortunately - despite this looking awesome, I would never trust it with full access to my email today.<p>Have you thought about pulling data into a sandbox, the compute happens and there is no outside connectivity and I get a list of actions to review and approve manually?

Hey HN! We’re a small team of friends who built an app to help you clean up your Gmail inbox — privately and locally.<p># The Problem<p>We all get bombarded with emails, making inbox management overwhelming. Many tools can help, but they often require cloud access, risking your data privacy.<p># Our Solution<p>Our app uses local large language models (LLMs) to smartly organize your emails, highlighting what’s important and filtering out the noise — without sending data to the cloud.<p># Why It’s Different<p>- Private: Runs entirely on your device; no data leaves your machine. - Open Source: You can review everything before using it.<p># Why It Matters<p>In a world where data privacy is crucial, our app provides AI-powered inbox decluttering without sacrificing control of your information.<p>We’d love to hear your feedback and ideas to help us improve. Thanks for checking us out!
