Why I built it

Long emails bury the things that actually matter. BrightMail AI reads your draft before you send it and highlights the parts a reader needs to catch: dates, dollar amounts, deadlines, and action items. It runs on Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano model, so the analysis happens on your machine and no draft is ever uploaded anywhere.

What it does

  • On-device AI via Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano, so no data leaves your browser
  • Identifies dates, dollar amounts, deadlines, and action items
  • Preview popover to approve or skip each phrase before applying
  • Three highlight presets plus fully custom styles

Questions about BrightMail AI

Does BrightMail AI read my email?
The analysis runs entirely on your own machine using Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano model. Your drafts are never uploaded to a server, and there is no external API call involved in highlighting a draft.
What does BrightMail AI highlight?
It surfaces the details a reader is most likely to miss in a long email: dates, dollar amounts, deadlines, and action items. You get a preview popover to approve or skip each phrase before the highlights are applied.
