4. Act and move on

Reply, set a follow-up, or mark done — all from one place.

Email wasn’t designed to manage follow-ups

Without a clear system, it’s hard to see which conversations need your reply, and which are already done.

Important messages get buried

Messages you plan to reply to later quickly disappear under new emails and notifications.

Everything looks equally important

Replies you owe, threads you’re waiting on, and finished conversations all sit together — with no clear priority.

No conversation-level status

Gmail doesn’t show whether a conversation needs your reply, is waiting on someone else, or is already finished.

Reminders live outside the conversation

Follow-ups live in calendars or to-do apps, separated from the actual conversation.

Who’s behind Needs Replay

I’m an independent developer, and I built Needs Replay to clean up messy email threads, follow client conversations over time, and stop missing follow-ups — without pushing private messages into a CRM.

I’m actively working on the product and open to collaboration, feedback, and new ideas. If you’re using Needs Replay and feel something is missing, I’m happy to build it with you.
