Innovation in the mobile email space is long overdue.
If you’re an iPhone user, scrolling through a mess of transcripts, signatures and text blocks on your 4-inch display can be a real pain.
That’s where Hong Kong/San Francisco startup MailTime comes in. With its intelligent content parsing engine, MailTime converts your emails into messaging bubbles, incorporates neat features such as ‘@ mentioning’ and encourages concise writing with a ‘Too Long, Didn’t Read’ alert.
Having raised $500,000 in seed funding from a group of angels in both China and Silicon Valley including Zhen Fund, Crystal Stream, Gary Rieschel, ChinaRock and Huang Mingming earlier this year, MailTime has also been backed by Cyberport’s Creative Micro Fund and STEFG-PolyU’s China Entrepreneurship Fund.
