Alto Mail was an email client featuring multiple services and a proprietary intelligence system created by Oath Inc. to interpret and reorganize incoming emails along with calendar appointments. It was compatible with IMAP services including Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud, AOL Mail, and Microsoft Exchange accounts. The application’s core feature was the Dashboard, which unified data from various inboxes and synchronized calendars.
Within the Dashboard, information was displayed as “Cards,” providing concise overviews of important emails and scheduled events such as travel itineraries, shopping updates, and ride-sharing assistance for upcoming appointments. Alto Mail also connected with productivity platforms like Slack and offered integration with Amazon Alexa through the Amazon Echo, thereby improving user efficiency.
On October 25, 2017, Oath declared that Alto Mail would be discontinued. The app was removed from mobile distribution on November 9, 2017, and all support concluded by December 10, 2017.
