if you prefer texting to emails, try the conversational email tool spike to make an email thread look like a texting conversation.

spike, which promotes itself as “the first collaborative email platform that helps teams of all sizes connect, create, and collaborate to accomplish more,” has a free version for one email address that includes unlimited notes and tasks, unlimited groups, and a 60-day search history. a professional version for small teams includes up to three email addresses and adds unlimited search history for $5 per user per month (billed annually). the business version is $10 per user per month (billed annually) and adds unlimited email accounts and other useful upgrades.

sanebox, an ai-powered email triage app, identifies important messages, hides distractions, banishes annoying senders, reminds you to follow up and more. the pricing is set up like a meal plan: the snack plan includes one email account and your selection of two features for $7/month, $59/year or $99/biyearly. the lunch plan includes two email accounts and allows you to select up to six features for $12/month, $99/year or $169/biyearly. the dinner plan includes up to four email accounts and all available features for $36/month, $299/year or $499/biyearly.

similarly, spark, a fast cross-platform email manager, is designed to filter out noise. it offers a unified inbox for multiple accounts and a filter using natural language search, and bundles non-priority emails into separate folders. the free version does offer several features, including the ability to sync between devices, smart notifications and a unified inbox. the premium individual plan is $4.99 a month, and the premium teams plan is $6.99 per user per month, but each plan adds in premium features not available in the free version.
