April | https://www.tryapril.com | San Francisco /Gurgaon, India | ONSITE | Full-time Roles: 1. Head of Growth (SF) 2. Senior Software Engineer (Gurgaon, India) We're building voic…

Personally I won't do that as LLM's way of judging an unimportant email vs my judgement is different - we are still working on evolving that but again email is so different for dif…

Sure, the data stored are (User's relation to the sender) + tone + way of writing. None of the email's actual content is/will be stored (Goes against gmail's compliance)

Means April will not send emails even if you dictate the email and ask it to send it. In safe mode, it will not have access to tool calls which are related to send email, move to t…

Yeah, It does. We mentioned only few of the things in the demo or else it would have been very long. Apart from hard delete, create /edit labels - all operations can be done throug…

Point taken - Safe mode goes out this week.

You can - we have seen cases where people have deleted 1600 emails in one voice session. But as the pagination happens - it will be in batches, read/delete everything. We have to l…

That happens now - before Send/Delete it will ask for confirmation.

Not as of now.

That would be supercool - but not the focus point right now. Though I totally see myself using it.

Sorry for the bad experience. It is because of the sudden traffic. Looking at it.

Yes Yes! The MCP hackathon was our way in. Thank you, really appreciate the support.

I think the car dent story originally came from - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45008239 . As I clarified there - the dent happened before the April demo, during hackathon s…

Valid concern - April does not write emails for you unless you specifically ask for it. Users usually dictate what they want to reply. But do you think a 'safe mode' - where April …

Got it - makes sense. The laundry example is perfect. Moments where your hands are tied or when you want screen-free time

Yeah - April learns how you speak/correct your emails - it picks up your writing patterns and keeps evolving. The more you use it, the more it sounds like you rather than generic A…

(cofounder here) Fair concern - cognitive distraction is real. We see it more like taking a phone call while driving (which people already do). We're purposely keeping interactions…

(cofounder here) Honestly, we were hoping Gemini would nail this so we wouldn't have to build it ourselves, but here we are. The main difference is we're not bounded by Google's ec…

Here is the submission of the hackathon which got us YC interview - https://youtu.be/6_Y_Xoj3q5A

I love your name, coincidentally the app mentioned here is called April - its voice only. But for email companies - Superhuman is the most successful one. Other solution which prov…

We didn't expect this will come on hackernews. But more on this - April is voice first app so you dont have to see/use your phone. Crash was because of the panic - we were getting …
