Fluxmail vs Spark

Everything Spark does well (a smart inbox, snooze, send later, AI writing), plus an AI agent that acts on your inbox, a priority triage queue, and automation rules, on one plan with no AI quotas.

No credit card required. Cancel anytime.

All AI, no quotas

Every AI feature on one plan. Spark meters its AI by plan and caps usage.

AI that acts

Flux AI archives, labels, and drafts for you. Spark AI writes and summarizes.

Private by design

Email bodies are fetched only when needed and cached locally, never routed through our servers.

  • You live in Gmail or Google Workspace and want the most capable AI email client there
  • You want every AI feature on one plan, with no monthly quotas or meeting-note caps
