Monster Mailbox is your AI mail crew. Agents will be able to triage every message, hold the suspicious ones, and review every send before it leaves your outbox. Built for people who'd rather not babysit a Gmail tab. Or give your agent access to anything sensitive. WHAT YOU GET — Smart Inbox triage. Each message lands in Trusted, Held, or Rejected based on signals your agents learn over time. You only see the mail that actually deserves your attention. — Outbox approvals. Every outbound message gets a quick second look. Suspicious link in a draft? Caught before it sends. Wrong recipient? Flagged. — AI agents per address. Spin up dedicated assistants for sales@, support@, hello@, or anything else. Pause and resume them from one screen. — Push notifications you actually want. Priority mail only, not the firehose. — Native iOS, built in Flutter. Cold-launches fast, works offline-first for triage decisions. WHO IT'S FOR — Solo founders and operators drowning in inbound. — Engineers who want their mail in plain text and their automations transparent. — Anyone who's been burned by a "Reply All" they couldn't take back. HOW IT WORKS Connect a Monster Mailbox address (or several). Your agents do the heavy lifting — quarantine, classification, draft replies, send approvals. You stay in the loop without staying in your inbox. PRIVACY Your mail is yours. Agents run against your account on your terms. See monstermailbox.com/privacy for the full policy. QUESTIONS Email support@monstermailbox.com or visit monstermailbox.com.

About

TermLite

Features
Read full description

TermLite is a local-only SSH client for developers, DevOps engineers, sysadmins, and anyone who manages servers — built for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. No account. No backend. No cloud vault. Most SSH apps ask you to sign up and sync your servers through their cloud. TermLite refuses to. There is no TermLite server to breach, no account to leak, and no third party between your device and your machines. Hosts, credentials, private keys, snippets, and configuration are stored on your device. SSH connections go straight from your device to your server. PRIVACY BY DESIGN • Open the app and start — no email, no password, no OAuth • Direct SSH — device to server, never routed through our infrastructure • Sensitive values hidden by default, with a warning before you save credentials • Optional encrypted backup you control — export and import on your own terms • App Privacy label: Data Not Collected — we do not collect your data DAILY SSH TOOLKIT • SSH terminal with password and private-key authentication • Host manager — save, search, favorite, and reconnect in one tap • Private key import with passphrase support • SFTP browser — browse, upload, and download files • Port forwarding — local tunnels per host • Command snippets — store and run commands you use every day • Clear connection states — auth failed, unreachable, host-key warnings • Mobile shortcut bar — Tab, Esc, Ctrl, and arrow keys within thumb reach BUILT FOR EVERY SCREEN On iPhone and iPad, TermLite is designed for thumbs — not a desktop UI squeezed onto a phone. One SSH session at a time, with a shortcut bar built for mobile. On Mac, it opens into a native workspace with sidebar, tabs, and split tab for running two shells side by side. TERMLITE PRO Upgrade without creating an account. Premium is unlocked through a standard App Store purchase — no login required. • Unlimited saved hosts • Unlimited snippets • Split tab — two shells side by side in one tab (Mac) • App lock (Face ID / Touch ID) • Terminal themes and advanced productivity features Free tier includes 3 hosts, 5 snippets, basic SSH, SFTP, and 1 port forwarding rule — enough to try TermLite on a real server before upgrading. WHO IT'S FOR • Developers with a VPS or home lab • DevOps and SREs who need fast server access • Indie hackers deploying their own apps • Power users who want a simple SSH client without the signup friction TermLite connects to servers you own or operate. You are responsible for securing your credentials and backing up your local configuration. Download TermLite and SSH with nothing standing between you and your shell.
