About Saymail
Saymail is a Chrome extension that writes emails inside the Gmail compose window. You enter rough notes by typing or speaking, choose a tone and it produces a polished email that you can read, tweak and send, with no copy-pasting between tabs. Voice input uses the browser's built-in speech recognition, and the extension is aimed at people who dislike writing emails and at non-native speakers.
Five tones are offered: formal, casual, friendly, direct and apologetic, and all languages are supported on every plan. The site also has pages for a rewriter, subject lines, auto-replies and apology emails. The free plan allows 10 emails a month, and Pro removes the monthly limit, at $6 a month billed yearly or $8 month to month.
