Shortwave

Building the AI agent app for business communicationsMost people's experience with AI today involves copy & pasting content back and forth from ChatGPT, or using simple AI features sprinkled into legacy apps. Not only are these terrible user experiences -- they're severely limiting to the the transformative potential of AI.We see an opportunity to build a new kind of communications app -- one designed from the ground up with AI at its core, where our entire UX is optimized for effective human-AI collaboration. Our goal is to unlock 10x (or greater) productivity gains by bringing cutting edge AI together with all of a user's business communications in a single app. With Shortwave, users can give the AI access to all of their data and then take action while still maintaining total control over what the AI does.We're focusing on email initially, as it's (1) ubiquitous (2) an open platform and (3) has a diverse set of valuable business data. In the future, however, we plan to expand beyond email to include all essential business communications tools.Shortwave's founders Andrew Lee and Jonny Dimond believe that a small, focused team of ambitious and talented people can outcompete much larger teams, and that with AI this is now more true than ever.Our investors --- Start your 14 day free trialSupercharge your productivity with the world's most advanced email AIMonthlyAnnuallyBusinessIndividualMonthlyAnnuallyBusinessIndividualMonthlyAnnuallyBusinessEveryday AI productivity$24per seat / month, billed annuallyStart free trialFull standard search historyStandard intelligenceMore AI usage5 years AI search historyMax 50 threads per AI search3 AI-powered filtersAI integrations & web browsingAI autocomplete, summaries & attachment analysisRead statuses, link tracking, snippets & moreMost popularPremierAdvanced intelligence for complex workflows$36per seat / month, billed annuallyStart free trialEverything in Business, plus...Advanced intelligence2x more AI usageUnlimited AI search historyMax 100 threads per AI search10 AI-powered filtersSmarter AI answers with 2x context tokensPremium supportMaxOur most powerful models & features$100per seat / month, billed annuallyStart free trialEverything in Premier, plus...Expert intelligence6x more AI usageMax 150 threads per AI search50 AI-powered filtersSmarter AI answers with 3x context tokensLive 1:1 trainingShortwave EnterpriseContact salesFor larger organizations with advanced integration, compliance, security, or support requirements.Contact salesLooking for 24/7 workflow automation?Shortwave integrates with our sister product Tasklet to automatically draft replies, add team comments, and connect to 3,000+ apps.Learn about Tasklet →Plans & featuresAI AssistantBusinessPremierMaxAI IntelligenceChoose between Basic (Claude Haiku 4.5), Standard (Claude Sonnet 4.6), Advanced (Claude Sonnet 4.6 with adaptive thinking), and Expert (Claude Opus 4.6 with adaptive thinking) intelligence levelsStandardAdvancedExpertDaily AI usage quotaThe Business plan allows for roughly 150-300 Standard intelligence AI requests per day.
