### About Corvo

Corvo is a standalone email provider, not a wrapper around existing services like Gmail. It categorizes incoming mail on arrival, surfaces sign-in codes for one-tap copying with automatic archival, and strips tracking pixels by default. The service runs its own mail infrastructure and includes a local classification model that can be turned off.

### Review

Corvo approaches email by building its own mail provider from scratch rather than layering features on top of Gmail or Outlook. That architectural choice lets it inspect and act on messages the moment they arrive. The tool focuses on three specific pain points: sign-in code clutter, tracking pixel surveillance, and the manual work of sorting receipts, confirmations, and newsletters.

Because it's a new provider, adoption means getting a corvo.cc address or bringing a custom domain. A free tier exists, and paid plans start at $2 per month. The iOS app is live on the App Store, with an Android app and IMAP reading on the roadmap.

#### Key Features

- **Self-cleaning sign-in codes.** When a code arrives, it sits on its own row with a Copy button. By default, the message archives itself 15 minutes later. You can change the trigger to "on copy" or switch to deletion instead of archiving.
- **One address per site, no setup required.** You can hand out addresses like `shop.you@corvo.cc` without configuring anything ahead of time. If an address starts receiving spam, you can pause or cut it off.
- **Tracker removal and proxied images.** Tracking pixels are stripped on arrival. Other images load through Corvo's server only when you explicitly request them, preventing senders from logging opens.
- **Agent drafting with send guard.** Agents like Claude can connect over MCP under a grant you define. Drafts they produce wait for your approval; nothing sends without your explicit action.
- **Daily brief.** An opt-in summary lands in your inbox each morning at a time you set, listing the day's events, messages awaiting reply, and overnight arrivals.

#### Pricing and Value

A free @corvo.cc address covers the core inbox features. Paid plans begin at $2 per month and add the ability to send from external clients like Apple Mail, Outlook, or Thunderbird. At $5 per month and above, you can use your own domain. IMAP support for reading mail in third-party apps is planned but not yet available; sending from those apps works on paid plans now. Pricing is straightforward, though the long-term cost for heavy storage users isn't detailed in the current information.

#### Pros

- Sign-in codes get a dedicated row with one-tap copy and auto-cleanup, removing a daily friction point.
- Throwaway-style per-site addresses work instantly with no DNS or alias configuration.
- Tracking protection is on by default and doesn't rely on browser extensions or third-party filters.
- Agent integration includes a hard gate: drafts never send without manual approval.
- The classification model runs locally and can be switched off entirely.

#### Cons

- Reading mail in Apple Mail, Outlook, or Thunderbird isn't supported yet; only sending from those clients works on paid plans, with IMAP reading on the roadmap.
- As a new mail provider with a single developer, long-term reliability and support responsiveness remain unproven at scale.
- Corvo is not well suited for users who need to keep their existing email address and client setup completely unchanged; adopting it means at least using a new corvo.cc address for some portion of incoming mail.

Corvo fits someone who is willing to route new sign-ups and transactional mail through a separate address to reduce inbox noise and tracking. The per-site addressing and code-handling features work immediately on the free tier, so the barrier to trying it is low. People who rely on a single entrenched inbox with years of history and prefer not to split their mail across providers will find the migration friction harder to justify.
