Apologies. The pricing is indeed $90/year or $10/month and the marketing site is wrong. However, I’m the coming weeks I’m releasing a new site/branding and more functionality which will fix this. Thanks for pointing it out!

https://www.paced.email is a service I built to buffer users from email. It aggregates multiple inbound emails into single messages based on a desired cadence. There's a dashboard, but after signing up, there's no real

I don't remember the site, but it reminds me of the Girl Talk album called "All Day" – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Day_(Girl_Talk_album) . It was originally released as a free digital download. >

Some clever customers of my email productivity tool (mentioned above) had a similar sentiment. They figured out a way to forward their emails to my service thereby keeping both separate and still benefitting from my tool. It prompted me to

I'm thankful for Hey and the underlying work that is seeping back into Rails – specifically Action Mailbox. It has enabled me to create a product* that goes someway to helping with email burnout. In a nutshell: Programmable email addre

I've been hacking on a project to make email a little more asynchronous as I took use it for everything. I love email, but the constant inbound pings make it a direct line to me/my time. In that sense, email is broken and I'm

Good idea, I’ll give that a whirl later. Great tip to filter out those auto-generated list sites. Thanks.

I’m on iOS and don’t think there’s a way of blocking unsolicited calls until after the fact... I hope to be proven wrong though! The odd thing is, the calls often come through having a caller ID very similar to my own number.
