Shortwave is an advanced email client that uses AI automation to transform how users manage their inbox and business communications. The platform features an AI agent called the Shortwave Agent that can organize emails, schedule meetings, write messages, and perform searches through simple prompts, saving hours each day.
The application provides comprehensive AI-powered inbox management with features like intelligent email categorization, custom AI filters written in plain English, and automatic labeling and archiving. Users can organize their inbox into split tabs for important emails, specific senders, and custom queries, while bundles help control promotions, newsletters, and updates to reach inbox zero faster. The AI learns each user's unique writing voice and style to generate emails that sound authentic, and provides autocomplete suggestions with real links, facts, and phrases from email history.
Shortwave integrates with popular business tools including Slack, Calendar, Notion, Asana, and Hubspot, allowing users to automate workflows without leaving their inbox. The platform offers AI-powered search that can find emails quickly or analyze entire team communications for answers, along with read status tracking, link tracking, and follow-up reminders. Team collaboration features include real-time thread sharing, private commenting, task assignments, and shared labels for team-wide email archives.
Available across iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows platforms, Shortwave maintains enterprise-grade security with CASA Tier 2 compliance and includes features like tracking pixel blocking, delivery scheduling, and CRM integration.
