About KeepKnown
KeepKnown is an advanced filter builder designed for Gmail and Outlook, acting as the ultimate upgrade your native inbox filtering should have. Built to handle complex inbox organization, KeepKnown lets users combine relationship, history, header, attachment, subject, and mailbox signals using powerful nested logic.
Designed with security and testing in mind, core filtering does not read email bodies.
