Sound familiar?

You just finished a 90-min call. 23 unread emails. Where do you even start?

You scan everything manually. You miss the VIP who emailed 20 minutes in. You spend 30 minutes just triaging. You come back from vacation and feel paralysed before you've replied to a single thing.

The Inbox Lightning difference

One strike. Full context.
Back in the loop before the next call starts.

Inbox Lightning watches your Gmail silently. The moment you resurface — from a call, a lunch, a trip — it fires back exactly what arrived, who needs you first, and what to do. No scanning. No sorting. Just act at the speed of lightning.

Built for people who have meetings

Every catchup feature you wish Gmail had.

Temporal Catchup

Jump to any time window — last 2 hours, this morning, yesterday evening. Inbox Lightning shows only emails from that window, sorted by priority so you read the right one first.

AI Catchup Summary

Before you read a single email, AI gives you a one-sentence briefing of what arrived. Who wrote, what they want, what's urgent. No more reading 20 subjects to get the picture.

Marie Dupont (VIP) sent an urgent proposal update. Thomas Martin has an unresolved invoice question. 3 lower-priority threads can wait.

Meeting Mode

Connect Google Calendar and every meeting gets its own catchup view. Emails during the call, sorted by urgency — automatically.

Absence Detection

Come back after 30+ minutes away and a banner instantly shows how many emails arrived. One click to see exactly what you missed.

VIP First

Your key contacts always surface at the top, regardless of when they wrote. Never make a VIP wait because their email was buried.

Noise Filter

Newsletters, auto-replies, and calendar noise are filtered out automatically. Your catchup shows only what actually matters.

Bulk Clear

Mark every thread in a time window as handled in one click. Processed your post-call emails? Done — reset and move on.

Smart Snooze

Not the right moment? Snooze a thread to tonight, tomorrow morning, or next Monday — it disappears until then.

Sarah K.

Independent Consultant

I used to spend 20 minutes after every client call just figuring out what I missed. Now I open Catchup and I know in 30 seconds. It's become a reflex.

The meeting mode is the killer feature. The moment my call ends, the emails that arrived during it are sorted and ready. My VIPs never wait anymore.
