You're drowning in email,
and it's costing you.

Hundreds of new messages a day, arriving faster than you can read them. Hours gone just figuring out what's urgent, then crafting responses. The work that actually matters keeps waiting. So do the people who matter. It doesn't have to keep costing you.

The problem

The email that mattered got buried.
You found out too late.

What matters never stands out; it lands in the same flood as the newsletters, alerts, and CCs. You've got far more important work than standing guard over an inbox, yet that leaves you two ways to cope, and both cost you.

Option one

Stay chained to your inbox

Refresh all day, every day, so nothing slips past. The work never closes, and neither do you.

Option two

Step away and gamble

Finally log off — and spend the whole time wondering about the one message you didn't see.

With Vital

Close it, and trust it

Leave email shut. The urgent comes to you by text. The tradeoff simply disappears.

Why not just…

You've tried the workarounds. They leak.

A human assistant in your inbox

A real person watches only while they're awake and on the clock, so nights, weekends, and sick days leave gaps. A single missed message can cost you the deal, and you're paying a full salary to lie awake worrying.

Do it yourself automations

Alert bursts blow up your costs the moment it misfires, and the logic only ever catches what you defined in advance. The opportunity you never saw coming is the one it lets slip by, and you won't know it happened.

Inbox rules and filters

Blunt, literal, and high-maintenance, they need constant tending to stay useful. They don't just leak, they break: your mailbox caps how many rules it runs, so past that line they quietly stop firing, with no warning you're no longer covered.

"Priority" or "Focused" inboxes

It's a generic guess at what matters, the same for everyone and tuned to no one, so what's urgent to you can land in the wrong pile. And it still lives inside the very inbox you're trying to escape.

Microsoft Copilot's inbox triage

It can sort and summarize, but only once you go into Outlook and ask it to. It never reaches out, so the email that needs you still just sits there, waiting for you to come find it.

Build your own agent

First you lose the hours it takes to build the thing meant to save you hours. Then it runs on a computer that reboots, loses power, and falls asleep, and it won't start itself back up, so it's quietly dead right when you're counting on it.

Every workaround either keeps you tethered to the inbox, only catches what you predefined, or fails silently, and you find out too late. Vital reads everything, reaches you outside the inbox, and is built so the important doesn't slip.

The solution

Get your head above water.

Vital reads every email the moment it lands and decides, on its own, what truly needs you, not just a list of names you set up in advance. The urgent reaches you by text. Everything else stays quiet. Close the laptop and breathe, knowing the message that matters will find you.

A genuine deadline or time-sensitive ask
The people and clients you've told it you can't miss
A thread stalled on your decision or sign-off
A newcomer who clearly means business, even with no history and on no list anywhere

Why Vital

How it's different.

Only what matters, outside your inbox

Vital texts you the few things that truly need you and stays silent on the rest. Close the inbox and trust that the urgent will find you, even when you're heads-down elsewhere.

Tuned to you, your way

Mark your VIPs and describe how to handle the rest in plain English, or use the rule builder beside it for precise control. Either way, it applies your judgment, not a generic guess.

Replies that already sound like you

Vital learns your voice from your sent mail and leaves a draft reply waiting in your Drafts folder. It's an on-brand starting point you review before sending, so replies take seconds, not minutes.

Bursts collapse into a quick heads-up

When an automated system floods your inbox, Vital flags it at the start and again when it clears. You hear that it happened, not a ping for every message.

A digest, first thing in the morning

Start each day with a single text of what's still open and waiting on you. Nothing carries over unseen, so you walk in already knowing your plate and where to begin.

Private by design, built for teams

Roll Vital out across a whole leadership team with roles and central admin. A hard privacy wall keeps each person's mail and rules their own, so even admins can't read another inbox.

How it works

Up and running in minutes.

Three steps, a few minutes, and you're done. No app to babysit, nothing to maintain.

01

Connect your mailbox

Securely link your Microsoft 365 account in about a minute, with no passwords stored and no software to install. Your inbox stays exactly where it is, fully in your control. (Google Workspace is on the way.)

02

Set your VIPs and rules.

Tell Vital who matters: your top clients, your boss, the deal that can't slip. Then set how to handle the rest. A few minutes in your private portal, adjustable anytime as priorities shift.

03

Vital watches it for you.

Around the clock, it weighs what's genuinely urgent for you, quietly and in the background. The moment something needs you, an SMS lands. Just a tap on the shoulder when it counts.

Trust & security

Built to be trusted with your inbox.

Handing over an inbox is a serious thing. We designed Vital so the access it needs is the least it could possibly ask for.

Your sign-in stays with Microsoft

You connect through Microsoft's own consent, so we never see or store a password. Access runs entirely on Microsoft's secure sign-in.

Verified, not anonymous

Microsoft's consent screen shows Red One Corporation with a verified-publisher badge, so you can see exactly who you're trusting.

The last word stays yours

Vital reads your mail and drafts replies for you. Nothing is ever sent, deleted, or moved without you.

Your mail isn't training data

We process your inbox only to do its job for you. Your messages never feed any AI model.

You stay the owner

Your mailbox data belongs to you, not us. We only handle it on your behalf, as a data processor.

Your data, handled with care

Encrypted in transit and at rest. We never sell your data, and you can disconnect and revoke access at any time.

For the details: secrets are held in a managed key vault, your data is retained about 12 months and deleted within 30 days of cancellation, and we work only with least-data providers, including Microsoft Azure, Anthropic, Twilio, and Stripe.

Pricing

Transparent, per mailbox.

Priced per mailbox, month to month. No contracts, no sales calls, no surprises.
