Nice idea, but the first thing that comes to my mind is there is nothing on the landing page that puts my privacy concerns to rest. I see that you mention you won't do anything shady with my data, but that is only mentioned once I click through a few pages. Maybe a small link on the homepage detailing your privacy terms and use of my data. Remember, email is one of the most privately guarded possessions one can have on the internet. It isn't something I will give random services access to without some serious vetting prior.
This is very true, thanks for reminding us... Privacy is obviously a huge issue, if we are going to be accessing your emails, so you're right we do need to make it a bit more obvious that the service is completely secure.
We would never store any of your emails on our servers, we would only store your oauth token/secret (with Gmail) or your login details (if using another provider).. The rules engine would be a black box where the email simply goes in one side and actions are triggered out the other side so to speak...
