Email isn't a reading problem — it's 47 unmade decisions hiding in a trench coat.
Flick turns every inbox into a swipe deck — you flick through your inbox, one email = one card = one decision. Flick it to archive, mark "no reply needed," or get an AI draft you approve in one tap. Work, uni, side hustle, the one you're avoiding — one stack.

the diagnosis 🩺
#
you're not lazy.
you're ✨delulu✨ that
9,847 unread is fine.
It's not. But it's also not your fault. Your inbox is a to-do list everyone else writes for you, sorted by who emailed loudest — not by what actually matters. Flick flips it: one card at a time, you decide, then it's gone. The pile has a bottom. You'll see it.
stop letting gmail gaslight you #
"Inbox (9,847)" isn't a number. It's a vibe, and the vibe is dread. Here's the actual unit of the problem 👇
47 flicks and you're done.
open inbox → spiral → close inbox → "I'll do it tonight" → it is now 3 weeks
flick to keep, flick to clear. card → decision → next. archive's free, "no reply needed" is free, AI draft is one tap. then: inbox flicked.
plot twist 🤫
this whole page is loud. #
the app is the calmest
thing you own.
thing you own.
Yeah we yelled at you in acid green. The product does the opposite. Flick is built to make you finish and leave — not to keep you scrolling.
If you ever spend more time in Flick, that's a bug, not a metric. Here's everything we refuse to do:
- streaks
- unread-count guilt
- infinite scroll
- "you have 9,847 unread"
- dopamine traps
- red badge terrorism
the pricing is, somehow, also honest #
No "unlock your inbox 🔒" hostage situation. The triage part — the part that actually saves you — is just free.
-
Swiping, archiving & "no reply needed" — free forever, unlimited - One inbox, one finite deck — done daily 5 AI-drafted replies / month
-
Everything in Free (still free, still unlimited) All your inboxes — up to 3 — merged into one deck****200 AI-drafted replies / month— for the chronically-emailed
Real talk: swiping is free because triage shouldn't cost money. We meter the AI-written replies because those cost us money to generate, and Pro adds the multi-inbox deck. There's a $7 Lite in between — the whole menu, fine print included, lives at app.flicked.email/pricing. No ads, no selling your email.
Your email bodies never live on our servers.
okay but actually tho #
the questions people ask before they trust an app anywhere near their inbox. straight answers, no fine-print energy.
what is Flick? #
A swipe-to-decide email app. Your inbox becomes a finite deck of cards — one email, one card, one decision. Swipe to archive, mark "no reply needed," or approve an AI-drafted reply. When the deck ends, you're done. That's the whole point: email that ends.
is it actually free? #
Swiping, archiving and "no reply needed" are free forever, unlimited. Only AI-drafted replies are metered (Free = 5/mo) — because generating those costs us real money. No ads, no selling your data, no "unlock your inbox 🔒" hostage situation.
does Flick store my email? #
No. Flick doesn't store your mailbox. It reads what it needs to build your deck (sender, subject, snippets), your decisions sync back to your own mailbox, and your email bodies never live on our servers. No model is trained on your mail. The receipts: the privacy policy, in plain English.
what is email triage? #
Deciding, once, what each email needs — act, archive, or acknowledge — instead of re-reading the same pile all day. Email isn't a reading problem; it's a stack of unmade decisions. Flick turns each one into a swipe. The full system: email triage, explained.
is there an iPhone app? #
Yes — live on the App Store, free to download. Same deal as everywhere else: swiping is free, the deck is finite, and the app is built so you finish and leave.
is this just inbox zero again? #
No. Inbox zero turned into a number people defend forever. Flick's goal is calmer: every email gets a decision, the deck ends today, and there are no streaks, badges or guilt mechanics dragging you back. Longer take: inbox zero is dead.
#
okay enough slander.
