Kiwi for Gmail

Gmail as a desktop app

Runs Gmail in its own Mac or Windows application instead of a browser tab, and one license gives the same interface on both platforms.

Several accounts side by side

Starter covers 1 Gmail or Workspace account, Pro up to 3 and Power Pro up to 9, used together without signing in and out or switching browser profiles.

Focus-Filtered Inbox

Narrows the inbox to mail from today, the past 2 days or the past week, and to Important, Unread, Starred or messages with attachments. Included from the Pro plan.

Workspace apps in their own windows

Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Calendar and Chat open as separate desktop windows, and a recent-documents list reopens files across all of your accounts.

Tabbed Workspaces

Groups related documents and windows into tabs by project, urgency or account so they are one click apart. Available on the Power Pro plan.

XO assistant

A GPT-4 powered assistant inside Kiwi that drafts emails, summarizes meeting notes and outlines documents. It requires an active Kiwi subscription.

Superhuman Mail

Split Inbox

Divides the inbox into separate tabs, for example mail from teammates, VIPs or specific tools, so each stream can be worked through on its own.

Keyboard shortcuts and Snippets

Most actions have a keyboard shortcut, and Snippets insert saved phrases, paragraphs or whole emails as you type.

Superhuman AI

Write with AI, Instant Reply, Auto Summarize and Auto Labels are on every plan. Auto Drafts, Ask AI and the Mail MCP server need Business or Enterprise.

Reminders, snooze and send later

Set a follow-up reminder that fires if nobody replies by a chosen time, snooze threads until they are needed and schedule when a message is sent.

Shared conversations and comments

Share a live view of a thread with teammates, comment on it, work on shared drafts and see when a colleague is already replying.

Calendar and scheduling

See the day's or week's calendar next to an email, create events, share availability and send booking links, with Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams links.
