- why_only_15 6y agoWorfklow is maybe one of my favorite acquisitions by them because it's far easier to run something like this as an OS-level daemon with OS-level permissions than a third-party app. Funnily enough, the Workflow team was folded into Proactive Intelligence, i.e. the old Cue team, another startup that was essentially acquihired for the same reason. Cue was trying to extract all kinds of information from your email, but it turns out you need more than email, which is possible when you run as an OS-level daemon.
