COMPARE EMAIL / VS MAILBUTLER · INBOX SIDEKICK

Hobb vs Mailbutler.

A Swiss-army sidebar with a task finder in the top tier. Also the one that edits your headers.

THE HONEST VERDICT

Mailbutler bolts features onto your inbox. Hobb replaces the part you hate, remembering, across every channel, and never touches the messages you send. Nothing is added to your headers because nothing is sent by us at all.

WHERE MAILBUTLER SHINES

ISO 27001 certified, bootstrapped in Berlin since 2015

Smart Task Finder scans for actionable to-dos

Syncs into Todoist and Asana if you already live there

WHERE REVIEWERS SAY IT BREAKS

Reviewers report it adds tracking text to headers even when tracking is off

Unreliable tracking and Outlook disconnects

Real cost for a solo operator once you need the AI tier

Side by side.
