Snailmail: How It Works. Set it up in five minutes.

01 / How It Works

Set it up in five minutes.
Then forget about it.

Snailmail runs in the background 24/7, quietly cleaning your inbox AND freeing up your Google storage while you focus on what actually matters. Your data is never sold.

Step 01

Connect your Gmail

Sign in with Google and grant Snailmail access to your inbox. No passwords stored. Just a secure OAuth connection. We never sell or share your data.

Step 02

Gary cleans inbox + storage

Gary reviews every sender, eats the obvious spam, hits unsubscribe, and surfaces the storage hogs (huge attachments, old emails) eating your Google account. Nothing gets touched unless Gary is confident.

Step 03

Clean inbox, free storage, cruise control

Once your backlog is clear, Gary switches to maintenance mode. He scans every 2 hours to catch new junk and storage creep before it piles up. You never have to think about it.

02 / Features

Smart enough to know
what you actually want.

Gary doesn't just nuke everything. He learns what to keep.

Intelligence

AI-powered classification

Gary uses AI to read each email and decide if it's junk. Catches things keyword filters miss entirely.

Strategy

Oldest-first backlog clearing

Starts from the bottom of your inbox and works forward. Making real progress through years of accumulated junk.

Protection

Smart whitelist

Emails you've replied to, starred, or manually whitelisted are never touched. Your important senders stay safe.

Automation

Clean to Maintain mode

Aggressive during cleanup, quiet during maintenance. Automatically switches modes so you never have to think about it.

Transparency

Full audit trail

See exactly what Gary unsubscribed from, what he skipped, and why. Complete visibility into every decision.

Infrastructure

Runs 24/7 in the cloud

No app to keep open. No laptop to leave on. Gary runs on our servers so your inbox gets cleaned even while you sleep.
