62 unreads scanned. Below: what needs you first.
Three things in every brief.
What matters, when it arrives, and how it sounds—by email, text, or voice.
Catches what actually matters
The 3 messages in 247 unreads that actually need your eyes — across every inbox you use. Buckets the rest, hides the noise.
Twice a day. Email, text, or voice.
You pick the times. Brief lands by email, text, or voice—usually a few minutes. Mornings to plan, evenings to wrap up what still needs attention.
Pick your brief tone
Summaries stay clear by default—or add dry wit when it fits. You choose in delivery settings; we don't touch subject lines or greetings.
Professional
Clear, neutral summaries (default)
Warm
Friendly phrasing when it fits
Witty
Dry, observational wit when it fits
Playful
More personality and light humor when it fits

Frequently asked questions
Are there alternatives to Brief?
Yes. Most people rely on email rules and folders, Slack or Teams unread views, manually checking each app, or other digest tools that are not built for authorized cross-app work unreads in one scheduled, priority-ordered brief (email, text, or voice). Those paths rarely summarize threads or list action items across Gmail, chat, and mail in one pass the way Brief does.
What does Brief read?
Unread messages from the accounts and apps you connect. Scope is limited to what you authorize during setup.
Does Brief send messages for me?
No. Brief is for reading, ranking, and summarizing—not for automating replies or sending mail on your behalf.
How is this different from Slack's unread view or email folders?
Those views are usually per app and per channel or folder. Brief is cross-app and priority-first, with summaries and a single delivery.
Is my data used to train public models?
Brief uses AI (including third-party providers) to classify and summarize messages from accounts you connect. Content is sent only to generate your briefs and is not used for training providers' general models. See the Privacy Policy at /privacy for full terms.
Can I use one connector for free?
Yes. The free tier includes 1 connector; paid plans unlock unlimited connectors.
What if I live in Slack all day?
Brief still helps for catch-up email and cross-tool work—but it is not a substitute for real-time chat when decisions happen live.
