Problem
Professionals and teams spend a large portion of their workday manually sorting, replying to, and tracking emails, which leads to missed messages, duplicated effort, and difficulty coordinating on shared inboxes.
Solution
Shortwave provides an AI‑powered email platform that centralizes inbox management, drafting, and collaboration. The AI learns each user’s writing style to generate personalized replies, suggests completions, and creates instant summaries. Custom AI filters written in plain English automatically label, star, archive, or route messages, while integrated shortcuts turn emails into actionable todos and shared threads. Built‑in integrations with Slack, Calendar, Notion, Asana, HubSpot and 3,000+ other apps enable seamless workflow automation without leaving the inbox. Real‑time team features such as private comments, shared labels, and assignable next‑step status keep everyone aligned, and enterprise‑grade security (CASA Tier 2 compliance, Google verification, AES‑256 encryption) protects sensitive communications.
Target Audience
Shortwave is aimed at knowledge workers, sales and support teams, and any organization that relies on email for daily collaboration and customer communication.
