InboxPurity, Clean Email and SaneBox: cleanup approaches

Choose based on the workflow you need. InboxPurity is in early access for Outlook and Microsoft 365; organization accounts may need administrator approval.

InboxPurity: approve a cleanup plan

The current workflow groups mail by sender, asks you to approve moves and records operations for a 30-day recovery window. Saved rules propose changes for review. AI is optional.

Clean Email: groups and sender controls

Clean Email documents message groups, previews based on header information and sender settings. These overlap with sender review; grouping is not unique to InboxPurity. See its preview documentation and sender settings.

SaneBox: ongoing sorting

SaneBox documents moving less important incoming mail into SaneLater. Users can train its decisions by moving messages back to the inbox. See how SaneBox works and SaneLater guidance.

Decide what you want to review

InboxPurity focuses on explicitly approved Outlook cleanup batches. SaneBox documents ongoing sorting, while Clean Email documents grouping and sender controls.
