Email made safe and simple for the people you love.
Built for them. Guided by you.
Everything in ElderMail is designed around two people: the elder who reads the mail, and the family member who keeps it safe.
A safety net, run by someone they trust
Behind a PIN, a family member gets a simple control panel: manage the contact list, block unwanted senders, and review quarantined mail. The elder never sees any of it — they just see a calmer inbox.
- Block scammers and unwanted senders
- Review quarantined mail
- Report spam to SpamCop, the FTC, and the sender's ISP
- Import and export backups
Every message can be read aloud
Tired eyes shouldn't mean missed messages. ElderMail reads any email out loud using the natural, high-quality voices built into the Mac — pick a favorite once and it just works.
Your mail never leaves your computer.
Every message is stored in an encrypted database on the Mac itself. There are no ElderMail servers — we cannot read, store, or receive anyone's mail. The built-in AI assistant runs entirely on the device. No analytics, no ads, and your data is never sold or shared.
ElderMail and your Google data
ElderMail connects to your Gmail account to show and send your mail. Your messages stay on your computer.
ElderMail is a full email client, so it asks Google for the Gmail mail scope (https://mail.google.com/) along with your email address and basic profile. It uses that access for exactly four things: displaying your mail, sending messages you write when you press Send, organizing your contacts, and answering questions about your mail with an assistant that runs entirely on your Mac.
Your messages are stored only in an encrypted database on your computer, and your sign-in tokens are kept in the macOS Keychain. ElderMail has no servers — your mail is never uploaded to us, never sold or shared, never used for advertising, and never used to train AI models.
You can disconnect at any time: remove the account inside ElderMail, or revoke access at myaccount.google.com/permissions. Read the full Privacy Policy for details.
