Volim Mail · Optional intelligence
A little assistance.
A lot of say.
Summarize a thread, find the words, or ask your mail a question. Choose how AI works for each account, or leave it off and enjoy a great mail app.
AI choices
Choose where
the work happens.
On your Mac
Use Apple Intelligence on supported Macs, or a model that runs on your own computer. Apple Intelligence needs macOS 26 and Apple silicon; other models depend on your Mac’s memory.
Your own provider
Connect a service such as Claude, OpenAI or Mistral with your own account. The content you choose is sent to that provider, and it bills you directly.
How AI billing worksNo AI at all
Turn AI off for an account. Reading, writing, labels, search, offline mail and the document tools all carry on as before.
Mail assistance
A helping hand where
mail gets busy.
Understand a conversation
Summaries, suggested replies, translation and action items. Ask your mail a question and get an answer that points to its source.
Make the first draft easier
Rewrite for tone, proofread, shorten or translate. Auto Drafts prepares replies as Gmail drafts for you to review. It never sends them.
Keep track of the day
The Executive Brief, meeting prep and AI-assisted sorting show what needs you. You choose which accounts and features may use AI.
Agent hub
Your assistants.
Your allowed accounts.
Connect Claude Desktop, Claude Code or another MCP-compatible assistant to Volim on your Mac. It can search the accounts you allow, read conversations and use the mail tools you permit. Free includes read-only access to one account; Pro opens the full hub.
Start read-only
Pick the accounts and the level of access. Every send needs your approval, with rate limits, a log of what happened, and an off switch.
A local connection, with outside choices
The link between the assistant and Volim stays on your Mac. The assistant may still send what it reads to its own AI service, so check its settings before you let it in.
Account controls
Set boundaries for each account.
Choose no AI, on-device basics or broader access, account by account. A sensitive account can block cloud AI and assistants completely. A badge on every AI action shows whether it ran on your Mac or in the cloud.
PDF assistance
Documents get a helping hand, too.
The built-in PDF viewer can summarize, answer questions with page numbers, pull out action items and translate, using the AI option you’ve set up. Check the source pages before you act on an answer.
Explore Volim PDFFaster mail. Richer context.
More on your Mac.
More to work with.
When mail is kept on your Mac, folders open and search runs without a round trip to Gmail. An assistant you’ve allowed can search that same history.
Less waiting for the everyday
Results from your Mac appear first. Gmail’s results join them when you’re connected.
Better context for the next answer
More history gives AI more to refer to. It doesn’t train or change the model, and each account’s permissions still apply.
A cloud AI service always needs a connection. Offline mail doesn’t make it work offline.
Volim Mail

Your rules.
Free for one account, with no card and no sign-up. When you want every account in one place, it’s easy to go Pro in just a few clicks.
