😸 Inbox Zero Without Trying

gm legends, happy Tuesday.

Here’s today’s lineup: HeyHelp lives inside Gmail and takes the grind off your plate by sorting noise, blocking cold pitches, and drafting replies in your voice; Crates pulls your scattered music into one library you actually control, whether it’s from Spotify, Bandcamp, or old MP3s; Haystack Editor makes pull requests less painful by showing code changes as a story instead of a wall of diffs.

HeyHelp sits inside Gmail and takes over the grind. It sorts and labels your emails, highlights priorities, drafts replies in your own voice, blocks cold pitches, and learns your patterns. You bring your own key from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini, and it just works with your inbox instead of bolting on another app.

🔥 Our Take: Most inbox tools feel like training another intern. This one actually does the chores: clear the noise, draft the obvious replies, and politely ghost the people you don’t want to hear from. You’ll still have unread mail, but at least you won’t be drowning in it.

Crates pulls your music collection together from Spotify, Bandcamp, YouTube, SoundCloud, and even those stray MP3s you’ve been dragging across hard drives for a decade. You can clean up artwork and metadata, stream everything in one place, and sync it to mobile so your library actually feels like yours again.

🔥 Our Take: Music used to be simple: you had a collection, you played it. Now half your library lives on platforms that barely talk to each other, and the rest is buried in links you forgot to save. This is less about discovery and more about ownership,  making sure you don’t lose the songs you actually care about in the chaos of algorithm feeds.

Haystack tries to make sense of pull requests by showing what the code is actually doing, not just what changed. Instead of digging through files line by line, you can follow the flow of data, see calls across files, and spot the important logic without drowning in boilerplate.

🔥 Our Take: Most PRs feel like someone dumped puzzle pieces on your desk and left. This tool at least gives you the picture on the box. It won’t magically make bad code good, but it might save your brain from melting the next time a teammate pushes “just a small change.”

Sarrah Pitaliya reflects on her team’s Product Hunt relaunch. The first go-round looked good on paper but didn’t deliver the impact they wanted. The second time, they leaned into storytelling, real conversations, and launch timing instead of chasing votes. Her takeaway: upvotes are nice, but thoughtful comments, honest feedback, and hitting the right audience at the right hour matter a lot more than the leaderboard.
