In simple English

Zero is a web app for reading and writing email. It connects to your existing email accounts like Gmail or Outlook. It adds artificial intelligence features to help you sort messages. You can run it on your own server to keep your data private. It is free to download and use.

What it is good for

Solo builders who want an open-source email interface with a modern layout, or anyone who wants to run their own email frontend and connect multiple accounts into one place.

  • Brings multiple email accounts into a single inbox.

Watch for
  • Requires technical knowledge to configure multiple API keys and environment variables.

  • Google OAuth configuration requires exact redirect URIs and test user setup.
