How Prunebox Works
Take back control of your inbox in 4 simple steps
1. Connect Your Gmail
Sign in with Google OAuth. We only request read/modify permissions to manage your email groups.
2. Scan Your Inbox
Our algorithm scans your emails for subscriptions using List-Unsubscribe headers and sender patterns.
3. Choose Your Action
For each email group, decide: Keep in inbox, Rollup to digest, Bulk Delete all emails, or Unsubscribe from mailing list.
4. Clean Up & Enjoy
Bulk delete old emails from unsubscribed senders. Enjoy a cleaner inbox forever.
