Hedwig

Email and calendar on a canvas, with an agent that drafts replies and waits for your approval.

Group: Work and business agents

Hedwig puts Gmail and Google Calendar on an infinite canvas of frames, piles and sticky notes, with an AI agent that works across the board. The vendor site lists catch-up summaries, drafted replies, follow-up chasing, sorting threads into piles, finding free time and adding todos.

The decision in plain English

The vendor says Hedwig is free while it is new: its pricing section lists a Free plan at $0 with every feature, unlimited accounts and boards and the agent included, and a Teams tier as coming soon with no price. Free access is described as an early-user offer, not a permanent commitment beyond what the page says.

Best fit

Gmail and Google Calendar users who want to rearrange their inbox into boards and have an agent draft replies for approval.

Poor fit

Anyone not on Gmail and Google Calendar, or who needs a known long-term price: the Teams tier has no price yet.

Permissions and human control

  • Connects through the official Google APIs; the vendor says granted access is scoped to the features you use. It says drafts wait for your explicit apply and the agent halts at anything it cannot undo.

Documented controls do not prove that an agent always follows them.

Privacy and security
