BlindSpot

What did you promise between jobs?

“I'll send that quote.” “I'll call you back.” “Let me get back to you.” Promises like these get made over a text, a call, or a quick email, away from your desk, and quietly disappear into a busy day. BlindSpot catches them automatically, and lets you add anything else in five seconds flat.

BlindSpot's built to run on your phone, since that's where the promises actually get made, not at a desk. You're welcome to keep going right here, or open app.useblindspot.com on your phone's browser instead.
On an iPhone? Add BlindSpot to your Home Screen to continue — installed apps can't inherit a Safari sign-in on iOS, so sign-in only happens once you're in the app you'll actually use.
On Android? Add BlindSpot to your Home Screen for one-tap access and more reliable notifications. Tap your browser's menu (⋮ or Share) and choose "Add to Home screen" or "Install app".
No password needed: we'll email you a one-time code to continue.

Welcome to BlindSpot

What should we call this account?

BlindSpot

Add your inbox

Any provider works: Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud, anything. You sign in with your provider, not a password we ever see, and read-only is enforced by their permission system, not just our promise. BlindSpot watches for promises you've made. It doesn't send, edit, or delete anything, ever.

Scanning your inbox…

Looking back over the last 14 days for anything you're still on the hook for. This runs in the background, usually just a couple of minutes.

BlindSpot

Catch it from a text too

Neither iPhone nor Android lets any app quietly read your texts (that's a privacy wall, not a BlindSpot limitation). There's no BlindSpot number and nothing to forward. When a commitment shows up in a text thread, just snap a screenshot of it: everything stays on your phone until you choose to send that one screenshot in.

The camera icon
Out and about and see something worth remembering, like a handwritten note, a whiteboard, a business card, a work order, or a screenshot of a text or DM? Tap the 📷 in the header. BlindSpot reads it and builds the commitment for you, no typing, and the photo itself is never kept.

1. Open the menu

In Safari's toolbar (usually along the bottom), tap •••. If you see a Share icon (a square with an arrow pointing up) directly in the toolbar instead, tap that and skip ahead to step 3.

↑ Tap here

2. Tap "Share"

A small menu pops up. Tap "Share" at the top of it.

3. Tap "View More"

The share sheet opens with just a few shortcuts showing — "Add to Home Screen" isn't one of them yet. Tap "View More" to see the rest of the list.

4. Find "Add to Home Screen"

A longer list of options slides up. Scroll down it until you see "Add to Home Screen" and tap it.

5. Tap "Add"

Safari shows the BlindSpot name and icon it'll use, and you can leave it as-is. Tap "Add" in the top right to finish.

Cancel Add
Tap here

Done. BlindSpot's icon is now on your Home Screen, just like a regular app. Open it from there from now on (not from Safari) so notifications work.

Getting started

Three steps to get real commitments flowing in.

Email

Connect a mailbox directly: a real, one-click, private connection. BlindSpot only ever reads; it never labels, archives, or sends anything.

Looks like is a Google account. Connect it with one click, read-only, same as any other Gmail or Google Workspace inbox.

Looks like is an Outlook / Microsoft 365 account. Connect it with one click, read-only, same as any other Outlook or Microsoft 365 inbox.

Connect with a password from 's provider. iCloud, Yahoo, and AOL (and most others) require an app-specific password here rather than your real one -- a code your provider generates just for BlindSpot, from your account's security settings. Your real account password is never entered here or stored by BlindSpot.

Not sure how to create an app password? Search "your provider app password".
Checking recent activity…
Heads up: BlindSpot only saves a message here when it actually looks like a real commitment, so right after a mailbox gets connected, the fastest way to confirm it's working is to send yourself an obvious test, like "Reminder: send the signed contract by Friday." A quiet inbox for a few minutes doesn't mean it failed.
Catch it from a text

Neither Apple nor Android lets any app quietly read your texts in the background (a deliberate privacy wall, not a BlindSpot limitation). There's no BlindSpot number and nothing to forward: snap a screenshot of the text thread and send it in with the 📷 camera icon in the header. BlindSpot reads it and builds the commitment for you, and the screenshot itself is never kept.

On Android, once BlindSpot's added to your home screen, sharing is automatic too: long-press any text → Share → BlindSpot.
Screenshot capture works from any device with a camera, just send it in from your actual phone.
Troubleshooting: your personal connection code is —. Only this device's BlindSpot install should ever need this, so treat it like a password.
Muted senders

Dismiss 3 messages from the same address as "Not a commitment" and future ones land pre-dismissed automatically. It's BlindSpot's own filter, never touching your email, undoable anytime below.

Flagged for review

Tap ⋯ → Flag issue on any card whose risk, owner, or action looks wrong. It doesn't change the commitment, it just logs it here so classification improves from real examples instead of guesswork. Clear it once you've looked.

Notifications

Get a push the moment a new commitment lands. Tap the 🔔 bell on the dashboard, or the button below, then allow notifications.

On iPhone, notifications only work once BlindSpot is added to your Home Screen first.

Push notifications
Email alerts

Get an email when something needs attention: a mailbox's gone quiet, or a commitment's sat open too long. On by default; turning on push notifications above covers the same alerts too.

Collapses "Other open items" (lower-priority commitments not waiting on you, not awaiting a reply, not high risk) behind a "Show more" tap instead of filling the screen. Nothing's hidden for good, just tucked away by default.

Collapse low-priority items
Sensitivity

How much BlindSpot shows you from your connected mailboxes. "Catch more" surfaces anything that might be a commitment, even when the AI isn't fully sure — more false alarms, less missed. "Only the sure things" shows just the clear-cut ones — fewer false alarms, but you might miss a borderline one. This only affects what's automatically detected from Gmail, Outlook, or IMAP; anything you add yourself or capture by photo always shows, regardless of this setting.

About you

Optional context that helps BlindSpot judge risk more like you would. Answer anytime; nothing here is required, and this is the same short set asked at signup if you skipped it there.

This doesn't change anything on screen right now — it's read by BlindSpot's classifier on your next sync, quietly shaping what gets flagged and how urgent it looks. Nothing here filters what's already on your dashboard.

Privacy & how BlindSpot reads your inbox

BlindSpot only reads your inbox. Think of it as a second pair of eyes, not something managing it:

  • Never labels, archives, or marks anything read
  • Never deletes or edits anything in your mailbox
  • Done / snoozed / dismissed status lives only in BlindSpot's own database, so your mailbox stays exactly as you left it
  • Any future write action would be a separate, clearly-labeled choice, never turned on quietly
