WHAT IS IT?
UnInbox is an open source email platform that rethinks the inbox for modern, distributed and collaborative work. The starting point: email was never built for today's noisy, asynchronous world. UnInbox plugs into your existing email infrastructure or replaces it entirely, positioning itself as an alternative to Hey, Front and Missive.
WHY IS IT INTERESTING?
- Email built for teams: Collaborative conversation management, with internal notes attached to threads to keep the team aligned without cluttering the conversation.
- Sender screening: A screener for new contacts that decides what makes it into the inbox, Hey-style, to cut down the noise.
- Compatible or standalone: Integrates with your current email infrastructure or works as a full replacement, depending on your needs.
- Modern stack: Built on Next.js, Hono, tRPC, DrizzleORM and Tailwind. End-to-end TypeScript, readable and contributable.
- Open source and self-hostable: Licensed under AGPLv3 (commercial option available), with a self-hosting mode in development.
USE CASES
- Manage a shared support or contact inbox as a team without a proprietary tool
- Reduce inbound noise through new sender screening
- Centralize customer exchanges with contextual internal notes
- Self-host your own communication infrastructure instead of relying on a SaaS
