## ShipRadar verdict

Shortwave reads the emails you've sent and writes replies in that style. Its pricing page says the AI runs on Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 4.6. It costs $30 a month and only works with Gmail.

- Best for: Gmail users who answer 20+ emails a day and want replies that sound like them.
- Not great for: Outlook users, or anyone sending a few emails a week.
- Watch out: $30 a month after the 14-day trial, and the Business plan caps AI use at roughly 150 to 300 requests a day.
