The record

Product: ActiveInbox turns Gmail into a task manager so users can track important emails as tasks.
Features: Features include due dates, project folders, subtasks and notes, follow ups, related emails, and focus mode.
Workflow: ActiveInbox uses Gmail labels for due dates and projects, so those email labels remain after uninstalling the extension.
Integrations: Users can add an email to Google Calendar from the Due Date menu.
Security: The maker says Gmail data travels between the user's computer and Google's servers, while email IDs, notes, and subtasks may be stored on ActiveInbox servers.
Privacy: The privacy page says ActiveInbox complies with GDPR and allows users to request access to or deletion of their personal information.
Support: The maker says every customer gets personal support by email.
Limits: ActiveInbox does not support collaborative data sharing and is designed for a single user.
Browser support: The maker lists Chrome and Chrome-compatible browsers such as Edge and Brave, and says Firefox and Safari editions are unavailable.
Audience: The homepage describes ActiveInbox as built for executives, managers, and founders, using a Getting Things Done workflow.
Company history: The maker says ActiveInbox began in 2006 as a tool Andy Mitchell built to manage Gmail customer support.
