Excited to check this out! I've increasingly been using Lex as an important partner in my writing.

I love the ambition here! You've been tackling a lot of product challenges that require *extreme* trust (file organizing, now email) and I think that's awesome. I have yet to trust any of it with my real data though. ;-) I will definitely try this when I get access, but I'm honestly quite concerned about missing important things and am unsure about the onramp to that level of trust. But quite curious to see how you're approaching it.

Also want to mention that To-Do List is a *critical* feature and one that - at least for me - will need to work really well (much better than Gmail's existing function for this). Probably my biggest issue with email is actually that I end up leaving a ton of them in my Inbox to "remind" me of things, which of course doesn't work well at all. Email-integrated task managers that can create a task out of an email, including any necessary context, have been the best way of dealing with this because I want A: a fully-featured task manager for my tasks and projects generally, but also B: integration with emails-as-tasks. One of the main issues I've had with Google Tasks isn't so much its features but its lack of integration with my main task management system. So that seems like a challenge for this separate task manager approach, but if done right maybe it will be good enough to justify the separation. Integration into other task managers seems like a bigger ask that may not ultimately be worth it.

Anyway it's amazing to see you launch two new products in close succession and I'm excited to see you guys charging forward in new directions!

First, Dan, whoever is working with you to make you clearer deserves a raise. This explanation of Cora could have been complex but it's brilliant. I do not dread email. I do emphasize in my work that each human is actually a unique melody and getting that melody clear, loved, and hummed by others is going to take some AI to show the patterns of your brain, and your words. I was pretty excited when email came into popular business use in 1993. Yes, I am ready to be that pioneer again for your reinvented email, 32 years later.

Great idea and nice UX as usual. As you write this feels stressful at first to restrain myself to jumping every 30min into my inbox, but I like challenge and freedom that this can offer. Looking fwd to it
