A small peek at the details going into our upcoming Sunflower Beta launch: This is the blank state—when you’ve cleared out your high-signal emails A 3D sphere coalesces from scattered points. You can play with it, rotate it, tap it The points on the sphere are arranged in the Fibonacci sequence… which the center disc florets of a sunflower also follow Look closely at the center of a sunflower and you’ll see this same pattern We’ll reveal the rest of our new Home tab soon. (it’s changed how I use email) Until then: I’m damn proud of the attention to detail poured into every corner of this app My co-founder @michaelbrooksjr is the best designer I’ve ever worked with, and @leeadkins the best engineer. We can’t wait to launch this thing 🌻

There's something so satisfying to see this and know that nothing needs you right now.

The sky gradient on the home tab adjusts depending on the time of day, or you can set it to a number of fixed themes It’s a pretty fun fidget spinner when you’ve wrapped up what’s on your plate And note: this is not an ā€œInbox Zeroā€ state. We have a different philosophy around email entirely that we’ll share more on soon Inbox Zero means working for your inbox. We believe your inbox should work for you

Psst alpha users: you can now reorganize your inbox tabs. Drag your tabs so the mail you actually care about comes first.

To project the Bat Symbol for our Halloween party we used a 27,000 lumen liquid cooled projector You could see it from all over downtown Miami. A friend even texted me saying she saw it driving on I-95 We tested it the night before for 10 minutes, and someone managed to get a video of it.. which wound up going viral on the onlyindade Instagram account before the party even started The lighting operator was an extremely good sport. Awesome guy He let me spin it, and then the day of the party he had 3 people with different opinions on where to place it on the building, nudging it back and forth šŸ˜‚

If your website says "AI powered," you don't really understand copywriting or human desires. Truth is, no one wants AI powered products! They want to look good in front of their boss. They want their problem gone. They want to be entertained. They want to feel smart for picking you. They want convenience.

Funding rounds aren't milestones. It shouldn't be your goal to raise a series A. It should be your goal not to need to.

Rest in Peace, Captain 😢🫔

Can't wait to show everyone what we've been working on!
The best design disappears. You don’t see it, you feel it: in how fast you get through your inbox, in what doesn’t interrupt you, in the quiet you get back. Sunflower is almost here. Follow along 🌻
