Guides

Stop an AI agent from sending email without asking.

I let my agent read my email and draft replies. It never sends one until I've read it. In Kin, that's one setting.

Connect your email to Kin and set it to Ask me before it reaches others. Anything that sends or shares with people waits for your OK, in every AI app you use.

Free for 5 connections and 2 AI apps. No card needed.

Set it up

  1. Connect your email in Kin

    Superhuman Mail connects today. Gmail is invite-only for now. Browse services ยท Gmail availability

  2. Choose Ask me before it reaches others

    Anything that sends or shares with other people asks you first, such as sending an email or posting a message. Actions that delete something ask too. Levels for a connection

  3. Add Kin to your agent

    Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor and any app that can add a remote MCP server. Add Kin to your AI apps

You read it before it goes.

The request shows who it goes to and the exact text the agent wants to send. Approve sends exactly that, once. Deny stops it, and the agent is told. Add a note, like "make it shorter", and the agent gets it with your answer. Approvals and questions

When in doubt, Kin asks.

  • An action Kin cannot place is treated as one that reaches people, so it asks.
  • When an action that reaches people changes, it asks again, even where you had allowed it.
  • A new connection already asks before every change, sending included, until you choose otherwise.
  • Pause with Changes ask makes every change in every AI app wait for you, for as long as you choose. How Pause works
Can Kin unsend an email?

No. A sent message cannot be taken back, and Kin never guesses how to reverse an action. That is why sending asks first.

What if my agent reaches my email some other way?

Kin governs only what goes through it. If your email is also connected inside the AI app itself, that follows the app's own controls. Connect it only through Kin, and remove it from the app.

Does it cover messages and texts too?

Yes. The same level asks before an AI app posts a message or sends a text through any service you connected to Kin.

Can I answer from my phone?

Yes. Requests wait on Home in Kin, and Kin on iPhone, Apple Watch and Android shows them too. Approve from your phone
