Your inbox,
already read.

Categories and priorities based on your courses and interests, with summaries where every fact links back to the email.

Today's brief

Two tabs are not enough.

Outlook splits mail into Focused and Other with the same rules for every student. It does not know your courses, so a deadline can land in Other, and it never says why.

Outlook today

Sorted by time. Every row looks equally urgent. No reasons.

The same emails in Sift

Four levels set by your profile, each with the reason it got there.

How it works

  1. Tell Sift who you are

    Three short steps: your year, your courses and which kinds of mail you care about.

    Undergraduate, Year 3, BSc Computing

    Courses
    • COMP3423
    • COMP3011
    • COMP3122
    • AMA2104
    Focus on
    • Courses
    • Academic admin
    • People
    Don't care
    • Promotions
  2. Read the brief

    What needs action comes first, with its deadline and a one line summary.

  3. Correct it once

    Open Why? to see the reasons. If Sift got it wrong, change it and it remembers.

Every fact points to its source.

Pick a key fact and Sift marks the exact sentence it came from, so you can check a date before you rely on it.

Five things to try in the demo

  1. One line summary
  2. Key facts with sources
  3. Details
  4. Original email

Profile and connections

Your courses shape every decision, and emails that share a topic link to each other.
