Hi PH -- I recently launched Simplehuman, a browser extension that makes Gmail work like Superhuman and ended the day on 4th.
I took the last few weeks to build a "Nuke" feature that deletes all emails from a spammy marketing company and blocks future emails too. This is very privacy friendly, as you do not need to give access to your email inbox to make this work for you.

Why I built this?

My app was primarily meant for founders and business owners and was being used only on work email inboxes. I wanted to increase the market size of who can use my app, and was looking for a consumer use case. From my conversations with my friends and beta users, I realised most of them struggle with 1000s of emails in their inbox and it is never manageable. I never had this problem, as I used filters effectively to auto-delete or reroute my emails to different folders. Turns out, many people do not know the existence of email filters. So, I decided to build something to make it easier to use.
