SlapMail syncs your inbox into Notion. Quicktion files the emails you choose.
SlapMail is a shared-inbox tool that happens to live in Notion. Quicktion is the opposite shape: pick the emails that matter, by forwarding rule or from the Gmail add-on, and they land in Notion, Google Sheets, Airtable, Linear, Trello, or Google Drive with the properties filled in.
Free plan includes 25 emails/month. No credit card required.
Works with Notion, Google Sheets, Airtable, Linear, Trello, and Google Drive
The short version
A team with a shared inbox that needs to reply from Notion: SlapMail, and I'd tell you that to your face. One person, or a small team, who wants certain emails to become database entries (in Notion or elsewhere) with the fields filled: Quicktion, starting on the free plan.

Why people switch from SlapMail
Per-user pricing for a one-person job
$10 per user per month, $8 on annual. Fair for a team of five sharing an inbox. Steep if you're one person routing client emails into a database. Quicktion is $12 a month total, and free up to 25 emails.
Whole-inbox sync isn't always what you want
SlapMail mirrors the mailbox. That's the point for a shared support inbox, but if you only want the invoices, or only the emails from one client, you end up with a database full of everything. Quicktion saves what you forward, and nothing else.
Gmail and Outlook only
SlapMail connects to Gmail and Outlook accounts. Quicktion's forwarding works from anything that can forward: Apple Mail, Fastmail, Hey, a company Exchange server, a shared alias.
Notion is the only destination
If some of those emails should become a Sheets row, an Airtable record, a Linear issue, a Trello card, or a PDF in Drive, SlapMail can't put them there. Quicktion covers all six from one account.
No AI extraction
SlapMail fills sender, subject, and date. Quicktion Pro reads the body and the PDF or image attachments and fills typed properties: amounts, due dates, project names, whatever you describe.
When SlapMail is the better choice
SlapMail is the better choice for a team running a shared inbox out of Notion: several people reading the same mailbox, assigning emails to each other, and replying without leaving the page. Nothing in Quicktion replies to email, and nothing in it is multi-seat. The CASA Tier 2 assessment matters if your IT team asks for one.
When Quicktion is the better choice
Quicktion is the better choice if you're one person, or a small team that wants specific emails filed rather than the whole inbox mirrored. It's cheaper, it doesn't need Gmail or Outlook, it fills properties with AI, and it saves to five tools besides Notion.
