It looks pretty good and sounds like something I'd actually like to use but $99+Tax is very steep for a new service considering my current email services are free/included with my web domain
I miss google inbox a lot. It really changed the way I used my email.
Great video. I just came across Hey as I was going to review Rework (book written by Hey and Basecamp founders) for my business book club. As a speaker on time management, I was intriqued by their email concept and was looking for reviews on it and your video was just what I needed. Subscribed to your channel!
I'd like to see a little more about this service. Perhaps you could take us through a day of you managing your emails.
That's a great idea, we'll do something like that in our full review of the service.
Good overview. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
This video should have more views. I agree with you Josh @ your comments regarding gmail, inbox, and hey. Hoping gmail does something like this for its millions of users but free.
Probably can't get on board for the price, but I am glad that people are rethinking email. It's about time.
Because it is not just a UI on top of some other email service, am I right in concluding that I would have to give up my current email addresses?
You wouldn't have to give up your current email address necessarily, you could just forward all emails from your current address to your new address through hey. That's what we're doing with our Gmail address.
Seems like they have solved a problem that didn’t really exist, is it really that hard to manage an inbox? As long as you don’t sign up to hundreds of sites - I use a totally separate email address for usernames that I use for business correspondence - and unsubscribe to things if they are not adding value then it’s not a problem for me. I treat my work inbox as a simple task list, either create a task to work on the email, archive it for future reference if needed or simply read and delete. People are so used to getting email for free, I can’t see the market for this product.
I’ve been complaining about the email evolution in the construction industry for decades. I spent far less time communicating before email entered the daily construction 🦺 way of doing business.
It all depends on how many e-mails you get from what kinds of sources. I have multiple domains of activity in my work, several reporting structures, a number of task teams, personal vs. work... something that helps with complexity would be great.
I started my career in the construction industry before email became our main form of communicating. I spent a whole lot less time communicating the same crap in Constructuon before email than today with email. The younger generation just likes to spend time behind the desk babbling instead of building. If the emails were just limited to sending drawings, the construction industry would be streamlined
Wanted to subscribe if I would find a 6 months later review - but is nothing there......
The problem is. "Hey" is only e-mail. Not contacts, not calendar, not notes. So you still need to use other services. Which makes the whole point of saving time useless. I'm waiting for a service with seamless mail/calendar/notes WITHOUT a million tabs, loading, etc...
I'm using an app called BlueMail which has email, calendar, contacts and later board which I think is kind of like to-do (haven't checked that feature out yet). They have a PC and Android app (not sure about ios or mac).
They’re launching calendar soon 🎉
2-character addresses like ab@hey.com are $999/year, 3-character addresses like abc@hey.com are $349/year. All other @hey.com email addresses, 4-characters or more, are just $99/year.
*no thanks i stay with gmail which is completely free*
Unless they give a substantial amount of e-mail aliases, it is not that worth the money. All the features mentioned here can be easily implemented on top of Gmail, if you know basic programming. The only thing Gmail is missing is aliases which I can create/delete to cope with unwanted e-mails.
Not necessarily. Google has a vested interest NOT to protect your privacy, bc of the ad model. If something is free, you're the product. Hey's service has ad tracking detection built-in, including image pixel tracking detection. And Imbox more closely resembles Google Inbox, rather than Gmail.
@@jamesandersonwalsh Well, if they think they could make money out of me, jokes on them. I have never bought any product by clicking an advert. Also, I use uBlock origin both on the desktop and mobile browser.
I don’t know basic programming. I’m a construction expert. I can build a building.
@@madameclark3453 , EXACTLY! A comment such as James' is useless to the vast majority of people. Just because James can create a program doesn't mean the rest of us with other careers can. That's like me, as an accountant, saying he can simply read the financial statements of a company to decide to invest; not everyone can do that.
Do you find this better than sanebox?
This presenter is a total PRO! Great delivery, great mic, no annoying music. This channel gets a perfect “10” score from me. He should have way more subscribers than he has.
I don't want to be 'that guy'. But because I already pay for my email (G suite for my business). I do struggle slightly to pay for an extra service like this.
So while Hey might be a great product. the main thing I wonder is: How we can 'emulate' a lot of Hey's features in Gmail?
there's a good video about that on YT, just search "hey features gmail"
Sounds great tbh - But Gmail is free so why switch, i'll use 5 sec longer to search for an old e-mail.
Are you still using Hey?
I am! - Josh
Is this sponsored as this is the third video about this in the last 2 weeks.
sure it is
No, we've just been really interested in what Hey is doing. Anytime a video is sponsored or we got something for free, that's disclosed in the video details as well as in the video itself.
The idea is great, but it's also its own disadvantage. For someone who gets several important emails from different people, it won't really be helpful, but for a person who gets over our two mails from from the same people, it'll be ok
i mean 8.25/mo for email?? no. maybe it's convenient, but big frickin deal. i use email maybe a couple times a week and gmail is totally fine. you shouldn't have ANY email notifications on your phone jeez.
Perhaps someone already has this, but I'd like to see an "unsubscribe" button that uses a little AI to to get off an email list.
my edison mail has that. it has an unsubscribe button and then asks if you want to delete all previous messages from this user.

I think the idea here with Hey is that you don't even need to bother trying to actually unsubscribe, because you can just screen them out.
Pay for email? 😂
I mean, you already pay with your private information
@@GabrielAlva which I dont care about, so yes. This is stupid.
I love what email has to offer. I started in the construction industry before email and I spent a whole lot less time communicating before email. Now I spend more time on a computer than building.
It is expensive and newly Launched Email Provider.
Don't know they will even survive or not for next 5 years.
So In My opinion A Big No👎
I am sure google will make gmail better :) and then u will see u picked wrong
First😃
This literally makes no sense. Current version of Gmail is very customizable and there is no need for such service at all. Waste of money and effort.
Current Gmail UI is terrible, and organization too. And yes I know about split inboxes.
not impressed.
what would impress you
