Profile

Hey HN. I'm Isaac, and I'm building Marco (https://marcoapp.io), a cross-platform email client that works with any IMAP provider. macOS, iOS, and web today.I started Marco because I finally lost patience with Apple Mail, and the email client market has a weird gap. Legacy clients look terrible and/or are not cross-platform. The good ones scan your data or cost $300+/year. And there's a graveyard of startups (Tempo, Big Mail, Caley) who built beautiful products and shut down after a year or two.I made a few opinionated bets early on:1. IMAP-first, not Gmail API-first. Nearly every email startup builds on the Gmail API. It's convenient, but it locks you into one provider. Marco is IMAP-native,

Marco, a privacy-first, offline-first email client (IMAP-native, no AI) is positioned in show hn launch, a segment that rewards a clear, focused offering.

The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
