Robert Vis, Founder & CEO of Bird, announced on Friday that he will be shifting from the Gmail app to Inbox.ai on iOS.
The announcement comes as Bird launched the “Mail” app that offers more than just basic email features, says Vis in a LinkedIn post.
According to Vis, the new app boasts single-threaded channels for Email, WhatsApp, RCS, Instagram, Telegram, and WeChat, along with a voice dialer that includes calls, voicemail, automatic transcription, and note-taking capabilities, all within the same platform.
“Whether you’re in Sales, Customer Service, or just want to streamline your communication, this is the game-changer. Now you can talk to customers as naturally as you chat with friends, right from your mobile, across any channel—and manage it better than ever before,” says Robert Vis.
Additionally, users can customise their Inboxes with specific logic and can assign an AI agent to autonomously handle responses.
