In simple English
This tool lets you send personalised email campaigns directly from your own Gmail account. All your contact lists, templates, and sending history stay on your computer. It requires you to set up a free Google Cloud project to connect your mail securely. There are no subscriptions, cloud servers, or hidden tracking pixels. You run it locally from your command line to manage your outreach safely.
What it is
