What is Shortwave?

Shortwave is an AI‑driven communications platform that centralizes email and future business messaging tools into a single interface. It lets users grant the AI read and write access to their email data while providing granular controls so users decide how the AI acts on messages.

The platform is built for efficient human‑AI collaboration, aiming to streamline routine email tasks and generate actionable insights from inbox content. By integrating AI directly into the core email workflow, Shortwave reduces time spent on drafting, filtering, and managing messages, thereby increasing productivity across business teams.
