How it works

Three steps. Same address.

Chail works with the email address you already have. The people you write to don’t need to change anything.

  1. 01

    Download Chail

    Windows first, iPhone next.

  2. 02

    Add your email address

    The one you already use. You don’t need a new account.

  3. 03

    Chat

    Every person shows up as one chat. Read and reply like in a messenger.

What changes

Your email, sorted by people.

Chail turns the way email is stored into the way you think about it: by person.

  • People, not threads

    Every person gets one chat with all their emails, in order.

  • Subjects stay visible

    When a new topic starts, its subject stands in bold at the top of the message, so you still know what an email was about.

  • Quotes folded away

    Old quotes and long signatures are hidden. You read only what’s new.

What stays the same

Nothing changes for anyone else.

You keep your address and your provider. Everyone else keeps using email like before.

  • Your address

    You keep your email address and your provider.

  • Their inbox

    The people you write to get normal emails, with the right subject and quotes.

  • Your emails

    Everything stays with your provider. If you stop using Chail, nothing is lost.

Is Chail free?

The chat is free for one email address, with a few extras to try. More addresses and everything else come with a monthly plan.

Does my email address work?

Yes. Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, GMX, WEB.DE, your work address and almost any other.

Do the people I write to need Chail?

No. They get normal emails with the right subject and quotes.

When can I try it?

Now, on Windows: download Chail, connect your email, and you’re in. The iPhone app comes next.

Mac? Android?

Planned. Tell us what you use, that helps us decide what to build next.
