Smart reminders
Set your first reminder, repeat interval, and max per draft. DraftAlert handles the rest — even when Gmail is closed.
Gmail Add-on • Google Workspace Marketplace • Privacy-first
Stop follow-ups from dying in Gmail drafts.
DraftAlert catches emails you or your team started but never sent, nudges the sender, and gives managers a lightweight weekly risk view before pipeline, candidate, or customer conversations go cold.

The problem
Your drafts folder has unfinished follow-ups.
Some drafts are harmless. Some are the reply you meant to send yesterday, the intro you forgot to finish, or the follow-up that quietly died in your drafts folder.
DraftAlert keeps an eye on unsent drafts and gives you a nudge before they disappear from your brain and your workflow.
Features
Everything you need to stop losing drafts
Snooze anything
1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month — or pick an exact date and time. Your draft, your schedule.
Digest emails
One beautiful summary of every overdue draft — with inline snooze and dismiss buttons. No app switching needed.
Inbox bumping
DraftAlert touches your draft to bump it to the top of your drafts list. Important ones float up automatically.
Bulk dismiss
Ancient drafts from 2019? Pick a cutoff date and silence them all in one click. Focus on what matters now.
ADHD-friendly
Sensible defaults that just work. No configuration required — but full control when you want it.
How it works
Three steps. Lightweight visibility. Fewer dropped follow-ups.
Detect overdue drafts
DraftAlert watches for draft emails that were started and never sent.
Nudge the sender
Reminders arrive in the sidebar, by inbox bump, or by digest email depending on settings.
Give the team lead visibility
For pilot accounts, managers can review a lightweight weekly risk report without adding a heavy sales-engagement system.
Who it’s for
Gmail-native teams where a missed follow-up has real cost
Recruiting & staffing teams
Candidate replies sit in drafts while other priorities take over. DraftAlert catches the gap before the candidate goes cold.
Founder-led B2B sales teams
When the founder is the sales team, follow-up discipline is the first thing to slip. DraftAlert keeps deal momentum visible.
Agencies & client-service teams
Client emails drafted but never sent erode trust quietly. DraftAlert surfaces risk before the client notices the silence.
If a missed Gmail follow-up can cost revenue, placements, or customer momentum, DraftAlert is for you.

Privacy-first, because Gmail permissions are serious
DraftAlert stores only what it needs to send reminders. Email bodies are never read or stored. Subject lines are optional. Tokens are encrypted, and you can delete your data from inside Gmail.
Subject lines are opt-in
Tokens encrypted with AES-256-GCM
Data deletion is one click

FAQ
Questions & answers
Does DraftAlert read the content of my emails?
No. We only access draft metadata (timestamps, thread IDs). Subject lines are only stored if you explicitly opt in via Settings. Email bodies are never read or stored.
Does it work when Gmail is closed?
Yes. DraftAlert runs server-side on Google Cloud. It monitors your drafts and sends reminders regardless of whether you have Gmail open. You'll still get digest emails and inbox bumps.
Can I snooze a draft for a specific date and time?
Absolutely. Use the quick presets (1h, 4h, 1d, 1w, 1mo) or pick an exact date and time using the calendar picker in the snooze dialog.
How do I stop reminders for a draft?
Click “Don't Remind” on any draft. It's immediately suppressed. The draft stays in Gmail — we just stop watching it.
How do I delete my data?
Open Gmail, open the DraftAlert sidebar, go to Settings, and click “Delete my data.” Everything is permanently removed from our servers within seconds.
How do team pilots work?
The founding team pilot is $2,500 for 21 days with up to 10 users. It includes onboarding help, weekly risk review for one manager, and priority support. The pilot fee is credited toward annual plans.
What does an admin need to know before rollout?
See our admin rollout page for details on permissions, data access, what users see, and how removal works.
