AI email drafting without sending your inbox to an AI server

Why local matters

Email is too sensitive for copy-paste AI workflows

Most AI email workflows ask you to copy a message into a chatbot or send draft content to a cloud service. That can create compliance work, vendor review, and uncertainty about where private correspondence is processed.

Mejl keeps the email client and the AI drafting workflow together. Your local model runs on your Mac, your style examples come from your own sent mail, and your draft can be refined without leaving the app.
