Alrighty vs Fyxer
Alrighty vs Fyxer, checked November 2026. What each costs, which accounts it takes, how it sorts and drafts, and where your email goes.
By Emmett Miller
Fyxer is for people on Gmail or Outlook who want an AI assistant inside the inbox they already use, with meeting notes, on any computer. Alrighty is for people who want iCloud, Gmail and Outlook in one mail app, with reply drafts and unwanted senders stopped at the source. If you need meeting notes, want to stay in Gmail or Outlook, or buy for a team, pick Fyxer.
Both write reply drafts in your voice, and neither sends one without you. The difference is what each one is. Fyxer adds AI to Gmail or Outlook and reaches into your meetings, Slack and Teams. Alrighty replaces your mail app on your computer and stays with email. The facts below come from each company's own pages as of November 2026. Alrighty is our app.
What is the difference between Alrighty and Fyxer?
Fyxer works inside the mail app you have. Alrighty is a new mail app.
"Fyxer securely connects to Gmail and Outlook in seconds" (Fyxer). Its docs list Gmail, Outlook for Windows (Microsoft 365), Outlook on the web, and the new Outlook for Mac (docs). It labels your mail there, writes drafts there, and adds a meeting notetaker, a scheduling assistant, chat, and links to Slack and Microsoft Teams (pricing).
Alrighty is a desktop app that puts iCloud, Gmail and Outlook accounts in one inbox. It drafts replies, sorts mail, and stops unwanted senders, all in the app you read in. It does mail only: no calendar and no meeting notes.

Is Fyxer or Alrighty cheaper?
Fyxer's sorting and drafts start at $37 a person a month, billed yearly. Alrighty has a Free plan and Pro, and Pro's price is not set.
Fyxer. Its pricing page lists Free at $0 with 400 credits a month, Pro at $37 a person a month billed yearly or $49 monthly with 3,000 credits, and Team at $64 billed yearly or $99 monthly with 6,000 credits pooled across the team.

Alrighty. A 14-day trial with no card, then a Free plan or Pro. Free has a small monthly AI allowance and no sorting into groups. There are no ads on any plan.
For one person who only wants email help, Fyxer's price buys features you may not use, such as meeting notes and Slack. For a team, Fyxer has pooled credits and a Team plan. Alrighty's plans are Free and Pro.
Does Fyxer work with iCloud or Apple Mail?
No. Fyxer connects to Gmail and Outlook, and you sign up with a Google or Microsoft account. Its docs name Gmail and Outlook's own apps, and don't mention iCloud or Apple Mail.
Alrighty takes iCloud with an app-specific password, along with Gmail, Outlook.com, Hotmail, Live and Microsoft 365, all in one inbox. If you have an @icloud.com or @me.com address you want help with, Alrighty covers it and Fyxer doesn't. Neither takes Yahoo, AOL or Fastmail.
How does Fyxer sort email, and how does Alrighty?
Fyxer sorts every email into one of its own categories. Alrighty sorts into groups you set up, and stops the senders you don't want.
Fyxer. Its categories are "1: to do", "2: FYI", "3: notification", "4: to follow up" and "5: marketing," and you can't rename or remove them (docs). For each one, you choose whether mail stays in your Inbox or leaves it and is archived under its label. In Gmail these are labels, so a message can show in the Inbox and under its label. In Outlook they're folders, and "Emails can only exist in one place." Sorting starts on Pro.
Alrighty. On Pro and during the trial, Alrighty's AI sorts new mail into groups you set up. Sorting sends each email's sender, subject and the start of its body to Alrighty's server, which asks Jev from TypeSafe AI. Filters stop a kind of mail that comes from a new sender each time, like cold sales: describe it, or set rules, and new Inbox mail that fits moves to Archive. Mail from people you wrote to is never moved.
Marketing mail. This is the biggest difference. Fyxer files newsletters under "5: marketing," and they keep coming. Alrighty's Stop mail unsubscribes in every way the message offers, archives the sender's mail, and moves their new mail out as it arrives. Clean up lists the senders you probably don't want, such as scams, cold outreach and newsletters you never open, so you can stop them all at once.
Does Fyxer write replies in your voice? Does Alrighty?
Both do, and both leave the sending to you.
Fyxer Pro offers "Replies drafted in your tone and automatic labeling," and its FAQ says "Fyxer drafts replies in your inbox, and you decide what gets sent" (pricing). The drafts appear in Gmail or Outlook, where you already work.
In Alrighty, when you're signed in, opening a reply starts a suggested draft. It reads up to 12 emails you sent before for your voice, and up to 12 messages of the conversation. Click Shorten, Warmer or Formalize, or ask for a change in your own words, such as "say yes to Friday." It stays a draft until you click Send.
Where does your email go with Fyxer, and with Alrighty?
Fyxer processes your mail on its own platform in Europe. Alrighty keeps its copy on your computer and sends the emails its AI needs to its server.
Fyxer. "Fyxer's core platform stores and processes data in the EU/EEA," hosted on Google Cloud in Belgium and the Netherlands, and some of its service providers are in the United States (Fyxer). It says "We never sell your data, and the AI providers we work with can't use it to train their own models" (pricing). Fyxer does train its own models: it "trains its own AI models to improve features like drafting, inbox sorting, and transcription," and you can opt out under Dashboard, Settings, Account. On Enterprise, the opt-out is on by default (docs). It says it is certified under SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 (security).
Alrighty. Your mail stays with iCloud, Google or Microsoft, and Alrighty keeps its copy and search index on your computer. Your passwords and tokens stay on your computer, encrypted with a key from your system's keychain. Reply drafts and answers go through Alrighty's server to OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Terra, with storage at OpenAI turned off. Sorting, Clean up and Filters you describe go to Jev at TypeSafe AI. Alrighty's privacy page names OpenAI, Together AI and TypeSafe AI. Signed out, nothing goes to Alrighty's server.
If your company needs a vendor with certifications and data kept in the EU, Fyxer states both. Alrighty's pages make no such claim.
Does Fyxer take meeting notes?
Yes. Even Fyxer's Free plan includes audio meeting notes, paid from its 400 monthly credits, and paid plans add video recordings (pricing). Alrighty takes no meeting notes and has no calendar. If meetings are half of why you want Fyxer, Alrighty won't replace that part.
Can Fyxer or Alrighty connect to Claude or ChatGPT?
Both can. Fyxer's pricing page lists "MCP: your context in Claude, ChatGPT and your own tools," without saying which plan includes it.
Alrighty runs a local MCP server on your computer. It lets Claude (the desktop app and Claude Code), ChatGPT's desktop app, Codex, Cursor, VS Code or a local model read and search your mail. It's off until you turn it on with Connect AI. That AI can also work in a window of its own while you watch: open mail, write replies, file messages. Nothing sends until you click Send. The setup guide covers each app.
What does Fyxer do better?
- Meetings. Notes, recordings and agendas. Alrighty has none of this.
- The web. Fyxer works in Gmail on the web and in Outlook on Windows and Mac. Alrighty has no web app.
- No new app. You keep Gmail or Outlook exactly as it is.
- Teams. A Team plan with pooled credits, Slack and Teams links, and an Enterprise plan.
- Compliance. Fyxer states SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, and EU data storage.
Alrighty is also new, with no long track record.

Questions
Does Fyxer send emails without asking?
No. Fyxer's FAQ says it drafts replies in your inbox and you decide what gets sent. Alrighty works the same way: a suggested reply is always a draft, and an AI working in its window can't send until you click Send.
Does Fyxer train AI on my email?
Fyxer says the AI providers it works with can't train their own models on your data. It does train its own models to improve drafting, sorting and transcription, unless you opt out under Dashboard, Settings, Account. On Enterprise, that opt-out is on by default.
Is there a free version of Fyxer?
Yes, but it doesn't sort your inbox or draft replies. Fyxer Free gives 400 credits a month for meeting notes, chat and a weekly email briefing. Alrighty's Free plan has a small monthly AI allowance and no sorting into groups.
Does Fyxer work on a Mac?
Yes, through Gmail in a browser or the new Outlook for Mac. Alrighty runs on a Mac too, as well as Windows and Linux. On a Mac, it needs Apple silicon.
