## What is mailin?

mailin turns exported email into an organized, searchable, defensible case file — on your Mac. No account, no tracking.

Import Gmail Takeout (.mbox), Apple Mail (.emlx), Outlook (.msg/.pst/.ost), Lotus Notes (.nsf), or .eml files and mailin builds a fast, structured archive you can search, analyze, and export.

GUIDED JOBS, NOT JUST TOOLS
Pick the job you came to do and mailin walks you through it step by step — saving your work as you go and producing a numbered document you can reopen, export to CSV, and pull into reports.
- 47 built-in workflows across 5 roles: Forensic, Legal/eDiscovery, IT, Journalist, Personal
- Auto-save, sequential step gates, sign-off, and who/when attestation
- Attach the exact files and archive emails as evidence to each step
- A numbered document trail (issue, notes, reversal) tied to a tamper-evident log

SEARCH AND BROWSE
- Full-text and structured search across subjects, senders, and body content
- Conversation threading, smart filters (sender, domain, date, attachments, flagged, size)
- Gmail label detection from Takeout

ANALYSIS AND INSIGHTS
- Analytics dashboard: volume timeline, top contacts, activity heatmap, attachment mix
- Communication patterns, relationship/entity network graphs, topic clusters
- Thread Story: a one-click narrative of any thread, grounded to only its emails
- Duplicate and near-duplicate detection with a review pass
- Anomaly detection and smart alerts for unusual senders, off-hours, and auth failures
- PII detection and GDPR data-subject-access reporting with a redaction pass
- Executive dashboard for a case-level KPI overview

EXPORT
- Per-email: EML, PDF, TIFF, MSG
- Documents: Word, CSV, JSON, Markdown, plain text, MBOX, portable HTML viewer, vCard, ICS
- Bates-stamped PDF and Concordance load files for legal production
- Forensic reports with SHA-256 hashes and hash manifests
- Bulk attachment download and redaction marking for safe sharing

FORENSIC AND LEGAL
- Tamper-evident, HMAC-chained audit log across every action
- Chain of custody: acquire, hash, preserve, verify
- Custodians and legal holds: issue, acknowledge, preserve, release
- SPF, DKIM, and DMARC authentication analysis; MIME tree inspection
- Cryptographically signed exports (Ed25519)

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
On-device by default. The developer collects nothing.
- Zero analytics, zero tracking, zero third-party SDKs
- Optional Face ID / Touch ID lock and App Sandbox with minimal permissions
- Privacy Manifest declares no data collection by the developer

Built natively with SwiftUI. Universal Purchase — buy once, use on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

DISCLAIMER
mailin augments your judgment; it does not make legal determinations for you. All software, including AI features, can produce inaccurate or incomplete results — always verify important outputs before relying on them. Forensic features (chain-of-custody, Bates numbering, signed exports, HMAC-chained audit logs) support common forensic and eDiscovery workflows, but the admissibility of digital evidence is jurisdiction-specific. Consult qualified legal counsel for evidentiary use. mailin makes no warranty of fitness for any specific legal or regulatory purpose.
