Hey Product Hunt! ✌️ It's been almost 9 months since we launched the first MVP version of Leave Me Alone and since then we have; πŸ’― Scanned over 20,000,000 emails πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ Seen over 700,000 subscriptions πŸ€— Unsubscribed users from over 200,000 of them To celebrate, today we're launching the official Leave Me Alone version 2.0. You might recognise that the core product is the same as always, but we've rebuilt everything from the ground up to be faster, more resilient, and more effective at unsubscribing you. Read the entire launch announcement here. Here's a run-down of our new and improved product. πŸ’Œ All the inboxes! πŸ“¬ We've added support for all your inboxes including Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, FastMail, AOL, and Yahoo. Plus, we've introduced IMAP support so you can connect any other inbox you might have. You can also now attach all your inboxes to a single account and deal with all those subscriptions together! πŸ…°οΈ Scoring subscriptions πŸ…±οΈ Using aggregated anonymous usage data we've created an algorithm that we're calling Subscription Score. We score each mailing list you receive using how frequently it's been seen before, how many times it's been unsubscribed from, how many addresses they send from, how many emails they send a month and many other data points. Using this we give each email a rank from A to F, so you can instantly see if it's worth keeping. πŸ’° One credit = one unsubscribe πŸ’Έ Unlike our competitors, we've always charged a fee for unsubscribing you. This is how you know we don't need to sell your data in order to keep afloat. With v2.0 we've made our payment system fairer and easier to understand (read more here) - now we only charge based on which emails you want to unsubscribe from. You can buy credit packages starting at $2.50 for 50 credits, all the way up to $10.50 for 300 credits. πŸ‘­ Teams Plan πŸ‘¬ During v1.0 many users asked us if we offered a monthly subscription plan, or a way for them to buy scans for their entire office. To help with this we've introduced a plan for Teams. On the teams plan you pay a fixed rate monthly per seat for unlimited unsubscribes. 🌳 Unsubscribe from COβ‚‚ Emissions 🌍 We participated in a challenge to help fix the climate. During research we discovered that unwanted emails contributed a whopping 986,000 tonnes of carbon to the atmosphere every day! So we implemented a way to see how much carbon you can offset by unsubscribing - check it out here. Plus, we partnered with One Tree Planted to let all users donate an extra $1 when purchasing credits to go towards planting a tree! To celebrate our launch day we're offering Product Hunt users a special discount - just use the coupon KITTY_V2 when you purchase a package of credits πŸ˜‡ --- πŸ‘« Who are we? James and I are a couple of travelling indie founders. Leave Me Alone is proud to be an open startup, which means you can see all of our metrics publicly including revenue, users, and other stats on our open page! ⭐ Special thanks Thank you so much to @iamarnob and @mshra_ji for once again creating us an amazing logo GIF! Thank you to all of our beta testers, everybody on Twitter, Women Make, Makerlog, and new friends in Bali for the incredible support, feedback, and all-round love for Leave Me Alone. --- We will be on Product Hunt and live streaming all day (see below). If we don’t get back to you, we have probably gone to sleep (since we are UTC+8) and we’ll be sure to reply tomorrow πŸ’œ - Danielle & James

Does what it says for emails & doesn't sell your data like Unroll.

Anne-Laure Le Cunff
Leave Me Alone is part of a new wave of privacy-first products where the makers really care about their users. The amount of love and effort @dinkydani21 and @jamesivings have poured into the app is incredible, and it's been very cool to follow their journey around the world as a nomad couple. Leave Me Alone is truly useful, easy to use, runs on beer, will give you back control of your inbox, and is built with 100% transparency.
Danielle Johnson
@anthilemoon amazing comment Anne-Laure, thank you! We really do care about privacy, it is at the core of our business and our values . Thank you for following our journey and using Leave Me Alone ❀️

@svenvdz Thank you Sven!!
Mike Holford
LMA is one of my favourite recent apps made by two very passionate makers. Watching @dinkydani21 and @jamesivings work tirelessly on improving the UX, pricing structure the products design as they travel has been very inspiring. I really love the way they have worked in helping the environment with their tech product and think it's something a lot of companies and makers can take note of!
Danielle Johnson
@mikelholford Thank you so much Mike! We have absolutely loved working on LMA and improving everything in the last 9 months. I am so, so happy with the product now and can't wait to continue improving and promoting it!
Steph Smith
I love LMA!!! After using the product for the first time, I immediately bought scans for my entire team. Now that there are team plans, I would encourage other leaders/companies to make a small investment that will save their teams hours of productivity moving forward. Congrats on building such a great product! πŸ’Œ
Danielle Johnson
@stephsmith This is so incredible thank you Steph! You are our number 1 customer and your support and recommendation to other teams means so much to us :)

Luke Chadwick
I've been a big user of LeaveMeAlone since they first launched last year. It has made a huge difference to my inbox and the amount of newsletter spam that I receive. I wrote a case study on Maker Mag about just how amazing the changes have been and how much potential there is for time saving across both individual and team uses. https://makermag.com/2019/07/01/...
Danielle Johnson
@vertis Thank you so much Luke! Your case study is actually linked as an article for this launch - you've helped us so much :)
Pete
Really great way to unsubscribe from emails and most importantly, you don't give your data away.
Danielle Johnson
@petecodes we don't! thank you for your support Pete <3
Ely Fornoville
Loved it from the beginning! Still using it! Keep it up.
Danielle Johnson
@ely_fornoville ah wow thank you Ely :) it's so awesome that you've seen the product grow and been with us the whole way <3
Pelle Wessman
Looks great πŸ™Œ For extra privacy, would it be possible to optionally connect to gmail using the β€œhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/...” scope? So that just metadata like email headers, not the actual content, is shared? πŸ™
Danielle Johnson
@voxpelli hey! yes we could, but it was our intention to search the content for unsubscribe links too. In terms of the Gmail API they are both restricted scopes but we could definitely give people the choice. Thank you for the suggestion :)
Kenny Hanson
Congrats on the launch! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰
