Dear inbox,
Clementine is a native Mac email client for Gmail. Every account together, kept properly Gmail, with calm AI and a CLI your agents can drive.
Free 14-day trial · $49.99, own it forever · macOS 15+
Apple Mail can fetch your Gmail, but it flattens it into generic IMAP folders and one grey pile. Clementine talks straight to the Gmail API, so every account keeps its labels, categories, and its own color.
Give each account a signature color and the whole window dresses to match, so you always know which hat you're wearing before you hit send.
Keep scrolling. The window dresses to the space.
Most Mac mail apps flatten Gmail into generic IMAP folders and call it a day. Clementine speaks Gmail natively: categories, labels, filters and snooze work exactly the way Gmail means them, at Mac speed.
Primary, Social, Promotions and Updates, sorted by Gmail so your inbox shows only what matters.
Full Gmail labels with color-coding and nesting, kept as labels and never flattened into folders.
Create and manage your server-side Gmail filters without leaving the app.
Snooze a thread out of the inbox, and schedule a send for when it lands best.
A calm few seconds to catch the typo, the missing attachment, or the wrong Alex.
Send-as aliases with reply-from rules and a signature per account.
Bulk mail carries a real unsubscribe button, right in the reader.
Set up and manage your Gmail vacation reply right from your Mac.
Gmail keeps the mail; Clementine keeps the overview. Views, VIPs, and a morning brief turn the pile into a plan, and none of it acts without you.
A View is a saved slice of your mail with its own look. Start from the gallery, from News to Receipts to Pull requests, or start blank and shape your own. They live in the sidebar and file themselves.
The morning brief greets the day's first open with what arrived overnight, VIPs first. Read it, dismiss it, and it stays gone until tomorrow. No lists to configure, no digest emails to unsubscribe from later.
Stop marking mail unread and hoping you remember. Press T on any email and the action is kept as a real to-do that still knows the conversation it came from. With AI on it writes its own title and pulls out the amounts, dates and attachments you will need; a deadline in the mail is offered as a date you tap to accept, never set behind your back.
Mark the people who matter and they surface first, everywhere.
Opt-in AI classifiers that file incoming mail, including rules you build yourself.
Asked a question and never got a reply? A quiet nudge after a few days.
Sweep the backlog in one pass: pick a cutoff, keep starred, undo if you regret it.
So Clementine offers it right there on the row, and you never open the message at all. The rest of the row is yours: put the actions you reach for most within a click.
You delete, someone else archives, and a third person snoozes everything until Monday. None of you should have to learn a stranger's habits to read your own mail, so nearly every part of Clementine can be moved, renamed, quietened or switched off.
Turn Focus on and the inbox stops moving. Nothing new appears, no badge ticks up, no notification arrives. The mail keeps coming; you just don't have to watch it land.
Give your day focus hours and Clementine goes quiet on its own, every day. Need it this minute? Start a 25, 45, or 90 minute session from the sidebar and the inbox holds until the timer runs out.
New mail is waiting quietly and will be here the moment you're done.
Some mail is just a key you need for ten seconds. Clementine spots a one-time code or a sign-in link the moment it lands, and hands it to you where you already are.
A verification code lands and the notification itself offers Copy code: one click and it is on your clipboard, the email already marked read. At the inbox, a calm card does the same. No opening the mail, no squinting for six digits.
When a service sends a sign-in link instead, the notification offers Open link and lands you in your browser, signed in. The rule behind it is strict on purpose: only a secure link on the sender's own site ever opens. Anything wrapped, foreign or ambiguous stays an ordinary notification.
Get out of the browser. Clementine talks straight to the Google APIs, feels like it shipped with macOS, and puts your Mac's own silicon to work: the AI can run right here, on this machine.
Native and feather-light. Opens before the browser even loads.
The full power of Gmail-backed search, every time.
Peek at your inbox without leaving what you're doing.
On your schedule: quiet during a Focus, loud when it counts.
See your day and RSVP to invitations without leaving the app.
Google and Apple Contacts photos, right where you'd expect.
Every shortcut and swipe gesture you'd expect on macOS.
Reads privately, blocks trackers from 75+ services.
Summaries and drafts written by your own Mac: a Qwen3 model through MLX, on the GPU already in this machine. No key, no cost, no mail leaving home.
No autopilot, no pop-ups, nothing humming in the background. It waits until you ask, then summarizes the thread or writes the draft.
Eleven replies deep? One click turns the whole thread into a paragraph that says exactly what's being asked of you. Foreign-language mail translates in place, with the original one click away.
Tell the AI what to say and it drafts the reply in your voice, calibrated from how you actually write. Select a sentence to rewrite just that. It hands everything back to you; it never sends on its own. And it reads like you wrote it, because a draft nobody would believe you sent is a draft you can't use.
On Apple silicon, every AI feature can run on your own Mac: no key, no cost, no mail leaving the machine. Prefer a frontier model? Connect your own Anthropic or OpenAI key and it's used as-is. No markup on usage, no lock-in, and your mail is never sent off to train anyone's model.
Clementine already holds your authenticated Google connection, so the
clem CLI works the second you install
it. No server to run, no OAuth to wire. Pipe threads into any model, serve them over MCP, or hand your
agent a ready-made Claude Code skill: one button in the app copies it.
Reads and drafts are always allowed; every write needs a permit only you can grant, and every action lands in an audit log.
Clementine keeps your data and your tokens on your device, and connects straight to the Gmail API. No intermediary sync service ever touches your mail.
and now, the good part
Every email app wants rent.
They rent you your own inbox, month after month, and the app gets a little worse every year because it no longer has to earn you. Clementine is yours: $49.99 once, own it forever, every update included. Rather ease in? $29.99 a year, and the lifetime is always waiting.
One payment. Every update included. Nothing renews, nothing expires.
clem CLI & MCP server for your agentsStarts with 14 days free. The whole app, no card required.
The same whole app, while you decide. Renews yearly, cancel any time.
Buy it once and it's yours: every account, every feature, every update we ever ship. That's the deal desktop software used to be, and it still works.
AI runs on your Mac, or on your own key, never marked up. Reading your mail costs us nothing, so one payment really can cover every update we ever ship.
That's all the yearly licence is: the same whole app for $29.99 a year while you make up your mind. Any year you're ready, one $49.99 payment makes it yours for good.
Clementine needs macOS 15 or later. The built-in local AI model needs Apple silicon; everything else, including AI with your own Anthropic or OpenAI key, works on any Mac that runs macOS 15.
Same app either way. $49.99 once makes it yours forever, every update included. $29.99 a year is for easing in: it renews until you cancel, and you can switch to lifetime whenever you're ready.
Because subscription-only software slowly turns against the people paying for it. When the money renews by itself, features start serving retention instead of you, and the app gets a little worse every year. There's a word for that: enshittification. We hate it. So you pay once, own Clementine forever, and the only way we earn the next sale is by making it worth recommending. The yearly licence is there for easing in, but the lifetime is the point.
Your licence covers the Macs you personally use. Buy it, sign in to Gmail as usual, and your mail never touches our servers because we don't run any.
Yes, and it's off until you turn it on. Each AI feature is a separate opt-in, nothing runs in the background, and nothing ever sends or deletes mail on its own.
Exactly that, on the lifetime licence: $49.99 once buys the app and every update we ever ship. No upgrade fee, no “version 2” repurchase. The $29.99 yearly licence includes every update while it's active.
Yes. The beta is open: download it, connect your Gmail, and you have the whole app free for 14 days, no card required. When you're ready, one $49.99 payment makes it yours forever, or it's $29.99 a year while you decide.
