Other apps wrap web services in tabs
Shift, Rambox, and Franz put web apps into Electron tabs. Each tab is a full Chromium browser instance. Your messages stay siloed — you search each app separately and get notifications from 6 different places.
HeyRobyn actually unifies your inbox
HeyRobyn connects to Gmail, Slack, GitHub, WhatsApp, and Telegram via native APIs. All messages flow into one chronological inbox. One search bar finds everything. AI triage prioritizes across all channels. Built with native Swift for Mac.
Early access launching April 2026. No credit card required.
