That's fair (cofounder here).

Our eventual goal is to replace Gmail for any work/transactional emails. We're taking the approach of doing that one integration at a time, and providing a richer experience.

We do think that there's a world in which both of them are useful though. The problem as we see it right now with Gmail is you may receive a notification about a pull request or whatever, but you can't do anything with it and the data gets stale. Monolist will keep it in sync, and let you approve/merge/comment on it inline so you don't have to switch between 10 apps.

akshaynathan, if I am understanding this right the eventual goal of monolist is to be the bucket for all incoming notifications and communications, and the be-all-end-all for quickly replying to or addressing action items. If that is right I am hoping you the best of luck because I've long wanted something like that. Someplace where my todo list, my inbox, my chatbox, my git repo notifications, my slack notifications all live would be awesome!

yeah, thats exactly the goal! In fact we already have git/slack notifications right now. It would be awesome if you could try it out and let us know what you think.
