Every channel your customers already use.

Full color is live today. Greyed goes live the day it works, and not before.

Your box

Keep every conversation on a machine you own.

There is no server of ours for it to travel to, so it lands on your box's disk and stays there. The machine is yours, and everything on it is yours with it.

every draft

Drafted replies

Reply in your voice without writing it.

It reads what came in, drafts a reply that sounds like you, and waits. Nothing reaches a customer until a person approves it.

Search

Search every word anyone said, not just the subject line.

Search across every conversation you have ever had, on any channel that reaches the box. One database, on your disk.

Search results for one word, across Gmail and Instagram.

The morning page

Start the day knowing what needs you.

Everything that came in overnight, what needs you, and what changed. One page, before you start.

The morning page: what came in overnight and what needs you.

Ask it from Claude

Run it from the chat window you already have open.

It speaks MCP, so Claude and ChatGPT read your box directly: how many conversations came in, what that customer said last month. There's no interface to learn.

The other way to fix it

You are the integration. Don't become the product.

A local business hears from customers in nine places and answers in nine places. A review went up Tuesday, a DM has sat since Friday, and somebody asked a question on your Google listing that nobody saw. Every tool built to fix this fixes it the same way: your conversations move to their servers, and they tell you how carefully they hold them.

How many companies hold them?

Every processor a SaaS hands your data to has to be published by law, so read that list on any hosted inbox you are weighing up. While we host your box, Ownbox has one: the company that owns the disk. The day you take it home, none.

We read Instagram and Facebook through a connector, like everyone in this category. A connector reads a message through to your box; the copy that matters is the one on your disk.

There is nothing to encrypt on the way to us, because there is no way to us.

We run it. You own it. Managed is ours to run: we host it, update it, watch it, and keep backups. It is its own line at checkout — the first three months are free, then $99 a month ($199 with Pro) until you cancel. Cancel and you take the box home and run it yourself; either way you keep the box and everything on it.

from $99/mo

You also pay about $12/month to your hosting provider, and the platforms directly; most are free at the volume a business does. If you switch on the AI it runs on your own API key and that provider bills you, not us.

Questions

How is this different from the inbox I have?

Your inbox shows you email; this shows you everything a customer can reach you through, in one queue, with the replies drafted. And it runs on a machine you own, so the conversations never become someone else's asset.

How do the drafted replies work?

It reads what came in, writes a reply in your voice, and waits for you to approve or change it. Approval is on by default, and no update we ship can switch it off.

Read the article: How can an AI employee work my inbox?

Is my data private?

Your conversations are on your box's disk, and nothing we run can read them. There is nothing for us to sell, share, train on or lose.

Do I have to run the server myself?

Only if you want to. Every box includes three months of Managed; after that it's $99 a month ($199 with Pro), or you take over the machine yourself and keep running it.

Whose AI is it running on?

Yours. You bring your own API key, the provider bills you, and the box spends against a hard monthly ceiling.

What happens if you go out of business?

Your box keeps running, and your data was never ours to lose. Everything on it exports in full, and the machine is yours; it doesn't stop working because we do.

Read the article: What happens to self-hosted software if the vendor goes out of business?

Why isn't this a subscription?

Because there's nothing we'd do every month to justify one. If you want us to operate it, that's Managed, and cancelling it changes nothing about how your box works.

Buy the machine, not the subscription.

Four hundred and ninety-nine dollars, once. It arrives built, it runs on a machine you own, and everything it learns stays there.
