Service snapshot
Unspam is a subscription-based email tool that uses machine learning to reduce unwanted messages in Gmail and Google Workspace accounts. It scans incoming mail and takes action—such as applying labels or moving suspicious items to archive—so important conversations remain visible and your inbox stays tidy.
How the filtering operates
The system evaluates each incoming message and flags likely spam. When a message matches the filter criteria, Unspam can automatically label it, hide it from the primary view, or archive it. These automated steps help minimize interruptions and let you concentrate on meaningful emails.
Privacy and data handling
- Messages are not stored long-term or indexed by the service.
- User emails are not used for model development unless the user explicitly chooses to forward content for that purpose.
- The service emphasizes that it does not retain or log email content as part of normal operation.
Background and intended use
What began as a personal project to manage one person’s overflowing inbox evolved into a paid offering for others who need the same relief. It is aimed at individuals and teams who want automated spam reduction without complex setup, allowing users to spend less time sorting mail and more time on priorities.
